National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Benesov or Teplice that keep their silverware dream alive.
Teplice could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Czech Liga game only four sleeps ago. That game was also an away game, at Mladá Boleslav. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
Benesov form and stats
This is not the first game this season in the Czech Cup for Benesov, as the manager Z. Machac led his troops to eliminate Spartak Sobeslav, and reach the 2nd Round. Last season their Czech Cup adventure ended in the 1st round.The season ticket holders are starting to dread their visits here at Stadion u Konopiště, with the home team losing four in a row. They have not avoided a defeat here since the Sokol Hostoun game.
No payout for Benesov in their previous match, an away game at Písek that ended in defeat 1-4.
Ahead of that match, Benesov lost 2-3 at home to Slavoj Vyšehrad.The match schedule is unforgiving for Benesov as they have a new game in only three days, a 3. Liga CFL match thankfully also at home. Slavia Praha II are visiting.
Teplice form and stats
Last season their Czech Cup adventure ended in the semi-finals.It's not happening yet for Teplice on their Czech Liga travels, with zero points from their first 3 away games. Maybe today will be different? Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in twelve away games in a row.
Teplice lost away at Mladá Boleslav (1-3) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick.
Prior to that match, a home win 1-0 against Jablonec in the Czech Liga.Teplice have another game that requires travelling in just four days, a Czech Liga match against Bohemians 1905. A back-breaking schedule for the visiting team!
Goals are few and far between in Teplice's away league games. Only 1 goal from 3 travels. The Teplice manager R. Kučera has some worries about the defense as 7 goals have been conceded in these travels.
