Match Preview
Slavia Praha will host Karviná at the Fortuna Arena on Saturday, 13 September, in a fixture that promises to be intriguing given the contrasting forms of both teams. Slavia is currently in strong shape, having gone unbeaten in their last five matches, with three wins and two draws. Their attacking prowess is evident, as they have scored consistently, contributing to a high number of goals in their recent games. In contrast, Karviná has had a mixed bag of results, with two wins and three losses in their last five outings, indicating potential vulnerabilities in their defence.
One key angle to consider is Slavia's home advantage. Historically, they have performed well against Karviná, winning three of their last ten encounters at home. The previous matches have often seen goals, with six of the last ten featuring over 2.5 goals and five matches witnessing both teams scoring. Given Slavia's current form and their strong record against Karviná, they will likely be confident in securing a victory, while Karviná will need to tighten their defence to avoid a repeat of past results.
