Zlin vs Slavia Prague Prediction: Visitors’ title win struggle continues

Zlin is set to welcome Slavia Prague in the 17th round of the Czech Fortuna Liga at Letná. I will analyze the match previews and present various betting options.

Zlín is seeking an improved outcome following their 2-0 loss in the First League against Sparta Prague in the previous match. During that game, Zlín held 37% possession, attempted 10 shots on goal, with 4 on target. Meanwhile, Sparta Prague made 13 attempts, hitting the target 6 times, and Veljko Birmančević scored twice (3', 40'). In 5 of their last 6 encounters, Zlín witnessed fewer than three goals per match. During this period, Zlín scored 7 goals, while their opponents scored a total of 12. Looking at their recent form, Zlín has not secured a victory against Slavia Prague in their last 9 league matches. Additionally, the host team has not won any of their last 4 league matches at home.

Slavia Prague enters the upcoming match on the back of a 2-3 victory against Sheriff Tiraspol in the Europa League. In that game, Slavia Prague dominated possession with 65% and registered 18 attempts on goal, 6 of which were on target. The goals for Slavia Prague were netted by Václav Jurečka (19'), Christos Zafeiris (78'), and Muhamed Tijani (95'). Sheriff Tiraspol, on the other hand, had 4 shots on goal, with Cristian Tovar (45') and Jerome Ngom Mbekeli (56') finding the back of the net. Jindřich Trpišovský's Slavia Prague has been in fine form, celebrating 10 goals in their most recent 6 matches, while conceding only 6 goals during the same period.

The visitors are in excellent form, and given the significance of this game, I am confident that Slavia Prague will emerge victorious as they strive to claim the top spot in the standings.
