Opava form and stats

Three Czech Liga home games done for Opava, who are not happy collecting 3 points from these matches. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Opava, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.

A good away victory last time out for Opava, who won 6-0 against Olesnice u Bouzova. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Viktoria Plzeň (0-4).
