The other game I have chose for you football bettors.

This one is a bit safer to play with a bigger probability to come out correct, but the odds are lower.

Keep in mind that despite all logic, the first games of the starting qualifications and seasons are usually a mess and random results occur.

Hopefully this won’t be the case here, and in fact I believe it won’t be, this is why it has been chosen:

FK Metalurgs v Sparta Prague July 13th 17:00 BST

Both teams have never met before, so there’s no head-to-head statistic. However Sparta Prague, usually reaches the groups or at least the next qualification round.

The last 6 games for FK Metalurgs:

Dinamo Tbilisi 3-1 Metalurgs Liepaja
Metalurgs Liepaja 2-1 Dinamo Tbilisi
FC Vaslui 3-1 Metalurgs Liepaja
Metalurgs Liepaja 0-2 FC Vaslui
Metalurgs Liepaja 2-0 Glentoran
Glentoran 1-1 Metalurgs Liepaja

A bit disturbing statistic, with 1 draw, 2 wins and 3 losses, Metalurgs seems to be in a bad shape at the moment at least.

The last 6 games for Sparta Prague:

Sparta Prague 1-0 Plzen
Sparta Prague 1-0 Teplice
Slovan Liberec 2-2 Sparta Prague
Sparta Prague 4-0 Slovacko
Banik Ostrava 1-1 Sparta Prague
Sparta Prague 1-0 Bohemians Prague

Seems like Sparta Prague has done well in these last 6 games, 4 wins and 2 draws. They sure got the potential to win this one tonight and make their job easier for the next game at home.

The Betting Verdict?

Sparta Prague win @ 1.58 (Betfair.com): Looking by the past performance of both teams, and the reputation both teams have, seems like we have a clear winner here in the face of Sparta Prague. Do keep in mind that there’s a second game, so there’s a slight possibility that the Czechs will be happy on a draw as well.
