Viktoria Plzen v Sparta Prague : Liga 1 match betting preview, prediction and odds

Sun 22nd Feb, 17:30 BST, Doosan Arena, Plzen

It's an away trip for Brian Priske Pedersen's Sparta Prague side on Sunday evening, as they visit the Doosan Arena for a Liga 1 tie with Martin Hysky's Viktoria Plzen. It's our aim to give you everything you need to make a smart bet on this encounter, so we've searched our extensive database and pulled out the statistics that are most significant. Head-to-head and recent form are included, and the KickOff predictions are produced from them. The best odds are there to make sure you get the best return.


Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The statistics suggest there's no obvious winner for this clash, but good reason to think Plzen and Sparta will find the net twice at least between them. That has been the case when they've gone head-to-head in years gone by, and neither Martin Hysky or Brian Priske Pedersen has subjected their supporters to too many 0-0s lately either. The bookies are predicting over 1.5 goals too, with odds of 1.25 equating to about a 78% probability.
