Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Velké Meziříčí & Opava face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Czech Cup. All the pre-match information is available here!
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Velké Meziříčí form and stats
This is not the first game this season in the Czech Cup for Meziříčí, as the manager L. Smejkal led his troops to eliminate Havlickuv Brod and Slovan Rosice, and reach the 2nd Round. Meziříčí participated in Czech Cup the last season, where they reached the 1st round.In their previous game, the manager L. Smejkal led his Meziříčí to a defeat in the 3. Liga MSFL match away at Banik Ostrava II. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Stadion Valašské Meziřičí.
Preceding that match was a 3. Liga MSFL defeat to Slovan Rosice (0-1).The match schedule is unforgiving for Velké Meziříčí as they have a new game in only two days, a 3. Liga MSFL match thankfully also at home. Slovacko II are visiting.
Opava form and stats
The traveling awayteam has defeated Bospor Bohumin in order to reach 2nd round of Czech Cup. They also participated in Czech Cup last season. This ended in the 3rd round.No 2. Liga FNL points yet away for Opava, from their first 2 matches. Three consecutive losses in away matches means Opava are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.
Opava played 1-1 against Chrudim in their previous match.
A 0-2 defeat away at Trinec before that.There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Opava manager R. West as the team has another away game coming up in only two days, this time against Dukla Praha.
As for goals scored and conceded in the league games away so far, Opava has managed 1 goal and let in 4 from 2 matches.
