Slovacko vs Viktoria Plzen Prediction: A competitive league encounter ahead

Městský fotbalový stadion Miroslava Valenty will host the week 14 Czech Fortuna Liga league game between Slovacko and Viktoria Plzen. The road team won the last meeting of this fixture. How will this one unfold?

Slovacko struggled the previous time out against Kromeriz in a league cup and will look to do better here. In that game, Slovacko went behind before the break, and despite Matyas Kozak’s strike in the second half, it was not enough to see them book a spot in the next round. However, Slovacko head into this game with three consecutive defeats, the first two against Teplice and Slovan Liberec. 

Viktoria Plzen are coming off a cup encounter against Usti nad Labem, ending 3-4. In that game, Daniel Vasulin's brace, Jan Paluska, and Jan Kopic's strikes were enough to see this team qualify for the next round. In the meantime, Viktoria Plzen's last league game was against Sparta Prague, and they pulled off a 1-0 win. Heading into this game, Viktoria Plzen remain unbeaten in their last nine consecutive matches.

The two teams have shown top-level performances this season, and their past meetings have been competitive. However, Viktoria Plzen are playing so well now, and they deserve a good chance. While Slovacko have lost back-to-back matches, they will look to turn the tables. Yet, while I expect them to score here, I do not see them taking a point despite being at home.
