Shamrock Rovers vs Sparta Prague Prediction & Betting Tips - Champions League
by Kennedy Kechula in Champions League Predictions
Irish side Shamrock Rovers has the chance to pull one of the biggest shocks in Champions League qualification. On the back of contrasting results, The Hoops and Sparta Prague will be facing off in the Champions League this Tuesday. The two meet in the 2nd qualifying round of the competition and here we have an analysis of the match and a prediction.
Hosts Shamrock Rovers are coming from a 1-0 loss at Bohemians in the Irish FA Cup. That ended their three-match unbeaten streak. As they plan on bouncing back, Rovers will be happy to take this game at home, having struggled on the road. Here they will be targeting a third straight home win.
Though their Champions League run isn’t the best, they will be inspired by their 2-1 aggregate win over Vikingur in the last round. They’ve also done well at home in this competition, winning four of the last five matches.
Sparta Prague had a bye from the first round of this competition and will be targeting a good start in Europe. They had to avert trouble in their opening game of the season when they came from down to beat Pardubice in the Czech Liga.
Goals from Matj Rynes and Victor Olatunji secured a 2-1 win and they’ll want to do things better here. While they come into this game as favorites, and with more experience in Europe, this won’t be a walk in the park.
The fact that Sparta Prague are just starting their season will not work in their favor as far as match fitness is concerned. They’ve also struggled defensively, only managing one clean sheet in their last seven matches including preseason games. The Czechia champions have one win in the last six Champions League matches.
