Olomouc vs Ostrava: Preview, Free tip & Prediction
17.09.2021 10:00
The Czech League has two games scheduled for Friday night, but the focus will be on the clash between Olomouc and Ostrava. Both teams are in excellent form and are keeping up with the top of the league, so the match should offer quality football.
Basic information, news and team form
Olomouc manager Václav Jílek, who spent successful years at Sigma from 2015 to 2019, returned to the bench before the season, but even he may not have expected how well his renewed connection with the Hana club would work from the start. Sigma lost to Sparta 2:3 in an attractive match at the beginning of the league, but since then they have been on a five-game unbeaten streak. Goals are the common denominator in virtually all of Olomouc's games this season: in six matches, they have amassed a respectable 19:12 record and boast the league's best attack.
Ostrava also had a good start to the 21/22 season. Baník lost 0:1 to Jablonec in the first round, but then jumped on a winning streak, which was broken only at the end of August by Slavia. The 0:4 defeat in Eden brought the team back down to earth after several good performances, but Ostrava reacted to this miserable result in the best possible way. In the next round, they managed to win a tough match against Boleslav at home (1:0) and last weekend they recorded another win at Teplice, coming back from 0:1 to a 2:1 triumph. After seven rounds, Baník has 15 points, four more than Olomouc, which has a postponed match with Slavia in hand.
Betdoin's view of the match
Goals are expected from the match, which corresponds to very low odds for overs or BTS. Betdoin algorithm also expects an offensive duel, but it predicts a cautious first half and a goal-rich second. The system has identified over 1.5 goals in the second half as a valuable pick, with current odds set around the 1.80 mark.
Absentees and estimated line-ups
Olomouc have a few injury issues going into the game: they team will have to do without forward Vaněček, who scored against Boleslav in the last round, but also injured his knee and will be out for several weeks. His teammates Hubník and Vepřek are also unavailable. The situation on the Baník side is much better, only Buchta's start is doubtful.

Macík - Chvátal, Poulolo, Jemelka, Zmrzlý - Breite, Gonzalez - Zifčák, Daněk, Hála - Růsek
Baník Ostrava - estimated line-up:
Laštůvka - Ndefe, Svozil, Lischka, Fleišman - Kaloč, Tetour - Sor, Kuzmanovič, Potočný - Almási
