epet ARENA will host the Czech Fortuna Liga game between Sparta Prague and Slovan Liberec. The previous time out, the two teams suffered a defeat. How will they approach this encounter?

Sparta Prague

Sparta Prague suffered a defeat against Slavia Prague the last time out and will look to return to winning ways. In that encounter, Sparta Prague had 52 percent of the possession and had 8 shots attempted with three on target. In the meantime, Sparta Prague conceded twice before the break and could only get a goal back in the 65th minute through Albion Rrahmani’s strike. This season, Sparta Prague have 22 points from 10 matches, leaving them second and six points behind first-placed Slavia Prague.

Slovan Liberec were thrashed the previous time out in the league by Jablonec and will look to right their wrongs. In that game, Adam Sevinsky’s own goal put their opponent in the lead. However, Slovan Liberec conceded four goals in the second half, handling this team's first defeat in five consecutive matches.

Expert Betting Tips

Sparta Prague will secure maximum points in this game as they will look to return to winning ways. While Slovan Liberec have been decent before their last league game, I still do not see them competing on the road against Sparta Prague. This should be an open encounter, but the home team is on another level and should take maximum points. Also, while the previous games in this fixture have ended with many goals, a similar outcome is expected.
