Ceske Budejovice vs Sparta Prague Prediction: Prague are in hot form

At Fotbalový Stadion Střelecký Ostrov, Ceske Budejovice will play Sparta Prague in the Czech Fortuna League. The visiting team is the better side in this fixture. However, can the home team win their first game this season?

Ceske Budejovice

Ceske Budejovice will be confident of winning their first win this season at home against a tough Sparta Prague side. The last time out against Bohemians, this team picked their first point of the season in a game that ended goalless. In fact, this team had only one shot on target out of 13 attempted while having just 30 percent of the possession. However, their recent league matches have ended with just one win, coming against Jiskra Trebon in a friendly game, while losing to Sigma Olomouc, Slavia Prague, Pardubice, Mlada Boleslav, Viktoria Plzen and Dukla Prague. 

Sparta Prague

Sparta Prague is coming off a UEFA Champions League encounter with Red Bull Salzburg, and this team pulled off a 3-0 win. In that match, Kaan Kairinen and Victor Olatunji both scored for this side before the break, while Qazim Laci’s goal in the second half was good enough to see this side win their first Champions League game this season. However, Sparta Prague's prior league game to this saw them play Hradec Kralove, and a 0-2 win on the road was enough to see them take maximum points. This season, in seven matches, Sparta Prague has accumulated 19 points, leaving them seated in the 2nd spot in the standings. 

Expert Betting Tips

Ceske Budejovice is just too poor this season, both defensively and offensively, and despite being at home in this one, I do not see them having a chance against Sparta Prague. Looking at the visiting team, they have shown both a great level of play in the league and also in the Champions League, and I have no doubt about them here. This should be a one-sided game, and a win with many goals is expected for Sparta Prague.
