Sigma Olomouc vs Slovacko Prediction: Battle of two struggling sides

Slovacko will travel to play Sigma Olomouc at Andrův stadion in an earlier postponed Czech Fortuna Liga encounter. The two teams have had struggling performances this season with inconsistent results. I will look into the two teams in the paragraphs below and make betting options available.

Sigma Olomouc

Sigma Olomouc settled for a disappointing defeat in their last league game against Liberec the last time out in a home encounter. Pulling off 67 per cent of the possession, Sigma Olomouc had 12 shots while converting one of three on target. In the meantime, Sigma Olomouc conceded twice in each half and could only get a consolation goal in the 76th minute, thanks to Adam Dohnalek's strike. Off to this game, Sigma Olomouc have had two defeats, one win and two draws in recent games. 

Slovacko

Slovacko took on Mlada Boleslav last weekend and picked up a point at full-time. In that game, Slovacko had only 44 per cent of the ball possession and attempted 14 shots while converting only one of the four on target. In the meantime, Slovacko have won once in recent games, a 1-0 home win against league-contending Viktoria Plzen. From their first 14 league games this season, Slovacko have 20 points, leaving them seated 9th spot. 

Expert Betting Tips

Sigma Olomouc winning odds are enticing, but I can't consider it my first option. This season, the home team has failed to step up in most of their matches, making it difficult for them to be seen as huge favourites. In the meantime, a look at Slovacko's performances shows they have also struggled defensively while averaging one of the fewest goals scored per game. The two teams have troubles, but one of the common outcomes of their matches this season is goals, and I expect both teams to net here. Also, while Sigma Olomouc hopes to leave the relegation spot, I expect them to be able to take maximum points.
