Slovan Liberec vs FK Pardubice Prediction: Both teams will find the back of the net

In round 5 of the Czech Fortuna Liga, Slovan Liberec will play FK Pardubice at Stadion U Nisy. Heading into this game, both teams are coming off defeat in their last league encounter. How will this one unfold?

Slovan Liberec are coming off a league encounter against Teplice. In a game that ended in a 2-1 defeat, Lukas Letenay’s 46th-minute strike almost gave this team a point until a last-minute strike from Abdallah Gning gave Teplice maximum points. Heading into this encounter, Slovan Liberec have failed to win any of their last three league matches, losing two and drawing one.

FK Pardubice ended on the losing end in their last league game against Slovacko, which ended 0-1. In the meantime, a look at this team's first four matches of the season saw them defeat Ceske Budejovice in a 1-3 encounter. However, their other matches ended in defeats to Sparta Prague and Karvina. FK Pardubice scored four goals this season while conceding five in the same run. 

The two teams are coming off rough performances, and it is tough to confidently back one. In the meantime, Slovan Liberec is a home favorite due to its turf and fans' advantage. In the meantime, FK Pardubice has a chance in this game, given that Slovan Liberec has not been exceptional either. With this game expected to be an opener one, I anticipate it to involve a lot of offensive play, which should end in Slovan Liberec’s favor.
