After a wretched start ot their Europa League campaign, Lech Poznan will attempt to get back on track when they host Bayer Leverkusen at Stadion Poznan on Thursday night.
The Polish side were comprehensively thrashed by Crystal Palace in their opening game, losing Radoslaw Murawski to a red card in the process. Since that dismal evening, Poznan have won both of their Polish league games, scoring an impressive nine goals in the process. However, Thursday's clash with Leverkusen will represent a massive step up in quality for a squad severely lacking in top-level European experience.
Leverkusen have also been scoring goals for fun in recent weeks. The dramatic 3-4 win at Mainz on Saturday means Carles Martínez Novell's side have scored at least twice in all seven of their games so far this season. In their opening Europa League game, Facundo Medina and an own goal saw Leverkusen record a comfortable 2-0 win over Celje.

Our KKS Lech Poznan vs Bayer Leverkusen Prediction
Poznan looked out of their depth in the defeat at Palace, and we think they will suffer a similar fate against Leverkusen.
After a patchy start to the campaign, Leverkusen have been in rip-roaring goalscoring form in recent games. Striker Patrick Schick is in superb form, while the likes of Robert Andrich and Moussa Diaby are also enjoying excellent starts to the season.
Poznan are sure to receive some vociferous home support, but we fully expect this one to end in a high-scoring victory for the visitors.
Our prediction for Lech Poznan vs Bayer Leverkusen is: Leverkusen to win and over 3.5 goals.
