Karviná form and stats

With 1 Fortuna Liga win, 3 draws and 3 defeats from their home games, Karviná are certainly not brimming with confidence.

Stress levels are on the rise for Karviná's attacking players as they have now played 243 minutes without scoring in a league game. L. Bartosak was their last goal scorer.

In their previous game, the manager J. Jarábek led his Karviná to a defeat in the Fortuna Liga match away at Slovacko. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Městský Stadión. In the preceding match a 1-0 victory visiting Pribram.

The penalty miss from Michal Papadopulos in the defeat against Slovacko was a source of irritation for some fans, but these things happen.

Karviná aren't scoring a lot here at Městský Stadión in the league, with only 6 goals from 7 games. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 12 goals have been conceded.

Slavia Praha form and stats

Slavia Praha, who have the most scored goals (39) in Fortuna Liga, have been very strong on the road so far with a massive 16 points collected from 6 Fortuna Liga games. 5 wins, 1 draw and 0 defeats is the record so far. Slavia have been producing wins at home as well, producing a total of five victories in a row regardless of arena. Slavia has been amazing away for a time now, winning four in a row on their travels. The last time they went home with a point loss was against Pardubice.

Slavia won their last game, 4-1 versus Dukla Praha played at home. Before that, Slavia secured a home win against Sigma Olomouc with the score 3-1.

The schedule is very tough for Slavia now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Fortuna Liga game at Zlin is waiting in only four days.

Slavia Praha are scoring goals for fun in their league games away this season, having clocked up more than three goals per game on average (18 goals from 6 away games). The Slavia defense is a tough nut to crack, having conceded less than half a goal per away game on average (1 goal in 6 games).

Head 2 Head

Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: zero - one - nine (Karviná wins - draws - Slavia Praha wins). As for goals, six matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), four had two or less.
