Overall Czech Liga stats at home this season for Slavia Praha are 1-0-0 (wins-draw-losses). Slavia Praha has a nice streak going on as they have played 15 consecutive leaguegames without losing (regardless of home/away). They are keen to extend their tally, a streak that began after the Slovacko defeat 205 days ago.

Slavia travelled for their previous game, a trip to Pardubice that ended 1-1. Before that, Slavia had a Czech Liga home game versus Pribram which ended with a victory 3-0.

The hometeam coach J. Trpišovský made a successful contribution in the game against Pardubice, bringing on Petar Musa who scored the equalizer in the 1-1 draw.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent.
