Sigma Olomouc form and stats

Sigma Olomouc have played 16 Fortuna Liga games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 5-5-6 (wins-draws-losses). Olomouc are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at Andrův stadion, having lost their two previous games here.

It's back home for Olomouc, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Opava away with the result 2-1. Pavel Zifcak and Mojmir Chytil found the net in that victory. Sensational by Olomouc last match, beating Opava away as big underdogs. Manager R. Látal felt very clever after Mojmir Chytil scored the winning goal against Opava, having brought on that player as a substitute in the 61st minute.

Before that game, the home loss against Slavia Praha with the scoreline 0-1.

This is expected to be a close game, with Olomouc perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Sigma Olomouc as a small favourite), we find ten games. Sigma Olomouc has won three of these, drawn three and lost four.

The Sigma Olomouc fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 20 in 16 matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Sigma Olomouc have conceded 17 in these home matches.

Mladá Boleslav form and stats

Mladá Boleslav have only collected 16 points from their away games in the Fortuna Liga, after 4-4-8 (16 played). Momentum is building for Boleslav in their away games, having won their two previous outings.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Fortuna Liga home defeat versus Sparta Praha with 4-5 on the scoreboard. A crazy, crazy match with lots of goals last time out for Boleslav, as mentioned above. 9 goals in that one, will this match be as much fun? Late heartbreak for Boleslav in the Sparta Praha match, as the deciding 4-5 goal came deep into overtime.

Ahead of that match was the victory versus Zbrojovka Brno at their stadium, the result 3-2.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Boleslav playing away and similar expectations, we found eight relevant matches. Results were five Mladá Boleslav wins, two draws and one defeat.

The visiting Boleslav have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 19 goals from 16 games. Boleslav's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 26 goals from these trips.
