Canada vs Czechia prediction

We knew that Canada were an excellent outfit across the ice and we saw that first up against Switzerland as they were lights out defensively and whilst it took them time to get going from an attacking perspective, once Canada clicked, the goals began to flow in an eventual 0-4 win which saw them score three times in the third period.

Canada are likely to be better from the start on this occasion with the rust having been shaken off and the players being more familiar with each other. Czechia are a strong team, they defeated Finland 2-0 and only lost to Switzerland in a shootout. But Canada boasts a roster at a different level and are well worth backing to keep their 100% record intact.
