Karviná form and stats

Last season, Karviná's league statistics were 9 wins, 12 draws and 13 losses, resulting in a 12th position in the Fortuna Liga. Over these 34 matches they scored 37 goals and conceded 49. Playing at home last season Karviná managed 4-6-7 (win-draw-lost) with 18 goals and 23 conceded.

Karviná shared the glory with Pardubice in their last match, an away game that ended all square 2-2. Opportunity lost for Karviná in the Pardubice match as a lead 2-0 was lost and what looked like a victory ended in a draw.

Preceding that game was the away draw at Banik Ostrava that finished 1-1.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Karviná have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found eight games) they have won three times, drawn three and lost two.
