30.07.2021 16:00
The second round of the Slovak Fortuna League will feature the two European Cup aspirants face each other on Saturday at Tehelné pole. Slovan enters this match as a clear favourite with a clear goal to keep 3 points at Tehelny pole at any cost. The visitors can at least take comfort from the fact that they are at the top of the table after the first round.
Basic information, news and team form
The visitors entered the new season of the Fortuna Liga with a 4-0 home win against Zlaté Moravce, with all goals coming in the first half and Jakub Kadák scoring a brace with two goals in the space of 15 minutes. The preparation for Trenčín didn't go so well, when out of 5 pre-season matches they managed to win only one against Karviná, where the aforementioned Jakub Kadák scored a hat-trick.
Slovan, on the other hand, managed to win their opening 3 pre-season games, but only managed a draw in the rehearsal for the Champions League qualifiers against Zlín. In the first Champions League double-header, Slovan managed to beat the Irish champions based in Dublin after a smooth 2-0 home win and 2-1 away loss, but unfortunately in the next round they were no match for the "young boys" from Bern after a 0-0 home draw and 3-2 away loss when Brazilian Rafael Ratao missed a penalty and the Slovakian journey in the Champions League came to an end.
Betdoin's view of the match
While both teams are displaying attractive, offensive football, Slovan played a tough game on the opponent's soil in Switzerland that cost them a lot of strength and had to travelled back to Slovakia in just 3 days. With an upcoming Europa League match against Gibraltar in the Iberian Peninsula featuring in another 5 days. The bookmakers see this match as goal-rich with an over 2.5 goal margin available at 1.33. Our algorithm takes all this into account, seeing the value more in the under bets. A bet on the under 3.5 at a nice odds of 1.85 directly encourages this.
Absence and probable lineup
The Whites will be missing Alen Musstafic, Lucas Lovat, Dejan Drazic and Dávid Homan. The visitors from Central Povazie are not reporting any health problems and should play their next game with a full squad.
Slovan Bratislava - Estimated line-up:
Chovan - Medvedev, Kashia, Bozhikov, De Marco - Kankava, de Kamps - Pauschek, Weiss, Ratao - Henty
Trencin - Estimated line-up:
Kukučka - Yem, Pires, Krizan, Madu - Kadá, Lavrinčík - Azango, Ibrahim, Tučný
