The Czech Republic aims to secure a fourth consecutive victory when they take on Malta in an upcoming friendly match. As they gear up for the EURO 2024 finals, the Czech Republic is considered strong favorites to defeat Malta in the game held in Grodig, Austria. Striker Patrik Schick, who has recovered from his injury, is expected to lead the attack, while West Ham United midfielder Tomas Soucek is anticipated to start on the bench.
Malta, on the other hand, has a challenging record against the Czech Republic, having lost seven out of their last eight encounters in all competitions. Given the Czech Republic’s formidable home form under Ivan Hasek, it is likely that Malta will struggle to secure a positive result. In their most recent friendly, the Czech Republic dominated Malta with a 6-0 victory, and a similar outcome is expected this time around. Malta’s head coach Michele Marcolini is likely to employ a 3-5-2 formation, featuring Reid and Nwoko in the forward positions.
Prediction: Czech Republic to win 3-0.
