Struggling Opava will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Slovan Liberec in the upcoming league round. It’s 18th vs 6th and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.

Insights:
  • Opava have the fewest scored goals (16) in Fortuna Liga
  • Slovan Liberec have scored more than double the goals of Opava.

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.

Opava form and stats

Opava's struggle is real here at Stadion v Městských sadech with only 10 points collected from 13 Fortuna Liga games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 2-4-7. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Opava with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Pardubice game, 39 days ago, have they avoided a loss.

Times are rough for the home team, having gone 206 minutes without scoring a league goal. L. Kania was the last player to find the net.

Opava faced defeat in their previous match, away at Mlada Boleslav (0-2). A defeat was the result before that one, 0-3 away at Banik Ostrava.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Opava as they are travelling to their away game against Sparta Praha in the Fortuna Liga. That match is four days after this one.

Opava have scored 8 league goals here from 13 matches, not a lot. Opava have conceded 21 from these games.

Slovan Liberec form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their Fortuna Liga travels is 5 wins, 2 draws and 6 defeats. Liberec seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

Liberec have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 218 minutes ago. M. Rabusic was the goal scorer.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Slovacko wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Slovan Liberec manager P. Hoftych as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Mlada Boleslav.

Liberec have scored 14 goals on their travels this season, from 13 away games in the league. As opposed to that, Slovan Liberec have seen the ball go into their own net 14 times on the road.

Head 2 Head

The most recent history between these sides is the Slovan Liberec - Opava 2-0 played earlier this season. Opava-Slovan Liberec H2H statistics last six meetings regardless of arena: Opava one win, Slovan Liberec two wins, three draws. three of these six matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
