The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Karviná are in the 11th position while the guesting Opava worry at 18th.
- Karviná have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored at home.
- Opava has the fewest scored goals (11) in Fortuna Liga
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Karviná form and stats
With 1 Fortuna Liga win, 3 draws and 4 defeats from their home games, Karviná are certainly not brimming with confidence. Karviná are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at Městský Stadión, having lost their two previous games here.
Karviná manager J. Jarábek and his team return home after a 2-2 draw away versus Teplice (placed 14th) in the Fortuna Liga. Before that game, the home loss against Slavia Praha with the scoreline 1-3.
Trouble was brewing at the score 0-2 against Teplice last time out, but a goal from Rafael Tavares completed a comeback to a draw result for Karviná.
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 two times, drawn four and lost two.
Karviná have scored 7 league goals here from 8 matches, not a lot. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 15 goals have been conceded.
Opava form and stats
There's been little loot from Opava's travels as they have only collected 2 points from 8 away games in the Fortuna Liga. Opava, who have the fewest scored goals (11) in Fortuna Liga, only have 0 wins to counter their 6 defeats and 2 draws. The sun doesn’t shine and the birds do not sing for Opava, who have now gone eleven games without a victory. The Teplice game was their last win and it’s been a dry spell since.
Opava are looking to quickly end their 214 minutes long goal drought in the Fortuna Liga.
Home advantage was not enough for Opava in their previous game, as they lost their Fortuna Liga-match, hosting Zbrojovka Brno, 0-2. Before that, Opava travelled to Bohemians 1905 and returned home with a draw after the game finished 0-0.
We have checked recent matches where Opava have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those seven games were one victory, three draws and three defeats.
The visitors will be packing their bags again in only three days as another away game awaits: The Czech Cup trip to Karlovy Vary.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting Opava as they have only managed to score 5 times from 8 away games in the league. For Opava, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.
Head 2 Head
Karviná and Opava have met before this season: Opava - Karviná 1-2. Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: three - five - two (Karviná wins - draws - Opava wins). As for goals, four matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), six had two or less.Top Goalscorers
