Expert Betting Tips

This game could end either way, looking at this game's history and recent performances. While Viktoria Plzen's level of play has dropped, Ostrava is also playing well and avoiding defeat. This is an open game for grabs for the two sides, but Plzen should be able to score twice here while both teams find the back of the net.
