Białystok Women opened their new campaign with a 3:0 victory over Legionovia Women in the 1. liga. The match took place on 26 September 2026, and the hosts saw the game out without conceding a single set. By then, the visitors had already built a reputation for dropping points away from home.
The recent form tells its own story. Białystok had lost four of their last five meetings across all competitions, while Legionovia's away record showed three defeats in a row before this fixture. To be fair, the quality gap was visible in those results, and today the scoreboard reflected what the eye had already seen.
We had called this one in advance — a home win with 72 per cent confidence. And here's the thing, the confidence wasn't misplaced: Białystok found a way through whenever Legionovia tried to build momentum, and the visitors simply could not keep up with the pace over three sets.
The clean sheet was the defining feature. Legionovia came for crosses they never reached, and the hosts switched off at the back only briefly before recovering their shape. The defensive organisation looked sharper than in previous seasons, and that discipline carried through to the attacking end.
Three points on the board for the hosts, zero for the visitors. The gap is still theoretical at this stage — both sides sit on zero points after one match — but the message was clear. Białystok Women held their nerve, and Legionovia Women will need to do better next time.
