It's time to decide the outcome of the Champions League 3rd Qualifying Round meeting between Monaco and Sparta Praha. Get ready for the match with this full betting preview!

It's no vacation for neither Monaco nor Sparta Praha as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

These teams have little in common geographically as Sparta Praha have to travel 1100 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
