Malšovická Aréna will be the venue for the round 20 Czech Fortuna Liga game between Hradec Kralove and FK Pardubice. The two teams are coming off a win and will hope for a better result here. Below, I make the previews of this game and offer predictions. 

Hradec Kralove

Hradec Kralove are coming off a 6-2 win over Turan and will hope for a similar result here. In a game that ended 6-2, this team needed to come from behind to secure a win, thanks to Koubek, Jurcenko, and Cmelik strikes. Heading into this game, Hradec Kralove won three of their last five matches. In their last home games, Hradec Kralove scored 15 goals and conceded seven. This season, the home team has 25 points accumulated from 19 games, which sees them sit 8th. 

FK Pardubice

FK Pardubice are coming off a win over LNZ Cherkasy and will hope for a similar outcome. In a game that ended 1-0, David Simek's strike in the 13th minute was enough to see this team take maximum points. However, this team has won three of their last four matches, with two against Zizkov and Chrudim. Away from home, FK Pardubice have only one win in their last five matches, lost two, and drew two. This season, FK Pardubice has 15 points from 14 games, which sees them sit 14th in the standings.
