Czechia vs Gibraltar prediction
Perhaps in preparation and anticipation of coming against a minnow of European international football, having lost to the Faroe Islands last month, Czechia prepared for this one with the visit of San Marino to Prague in a friendly, and they defeated the improving Sammarinese by just a solitary goal to nil.
Gibraltar will be content with their most recent outing as, for the second time during their UEFA qualification campaign for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, took the lead against Montenegro before then eventually suffering a 2-1 defeat to the Montenegrins, with Atalanta striker Nikola Krstovic scoring the winner.
There is a fair bit of pressure on the underperforming Czechs to put in a performance here, albeit Gibraltar should still roll over, it may well be a bit tougher for the hosts.
