THE TEAM NEWS
SLOVAN LIBEREC
- Slovan Liberec suffered a surprise 2-1 defeat against bottom-of-the-table Pribram on Wednesday, though despite that defeat they have clinched a place in the Championship Round..
- Sealing their spot in the top six with one game to go is a relief but the result against Pribram was still a big disappointment.
- Slovan Liberec paid the price for a poor start to the match against Pribram and were two goals behind after 30 minutes, although they did strike back just before half-time they were unable to force an equaliser in the second half.
BANIK OSTRAVA
- Banik Ostrava enter the final round of the regular season in sixth place and as two teams are within touching distance behind them there is all to play for.
- They picked up a vital point from an eventful contest against Slavia in midweek where they fell behind in the fourth minute of added-time and somehow managed to level the game in the seventh additional minute.
- Some of Banik Ostrava’s defending has been concerning over the last few games and they come into this fixture having conceded two goals in each of their last three games.
THE PREDICTION
Recent fixtures between Slovan Liberec and Banik Ostrava have been very close contests and this is expected to be no different with the two teams only separated by two points in the league table. They were both guilty of some lapses in defence in their last couple of games and it seems there is certainly the potential for over 2.5 goals in this encounter.
