Opava 0-0 Karvina Prediction and Betting Tips | 1. Liga

Opava – Karvina betting tips for today, May 27, 2020

• Get ready for the next Czech Liga (CL) Silesian derby! Typically attacking each other with pure venom whenever they meet, both teams have scored in three of the last four H2Hs. Even so, the opener could still be vital, as just one of those H2Hs saw at least three goals scored.
• Conceding after the 80th minute in three of their last four league matches, Opava have seen three of their four league wins come at home. However, they are the only team that has scored less than ten goals (seven) in front of their fans. In turn, they go into this one as the CL’s worst home side (W3, D2, L6).
• If excluding the draws in the above sequence, just two of Opava’s nine home matches have seen both teams score. Relevantly perhaps, their rivals Karviná haven’t scored in six away league matches in a row (D1, L5), with all five losses during this run coming by at least a two-goal margin.
• The visitors’ current form raises their hopes though, as Karviná haven’t conceded a single league goal in their four prior matches held in 2020, winning three and drawing one. A good start might be the key, with the visitors scoring five of their seven goals in those wins before the break.
• Players to watch: Opava’s top-scorer René Dedič has been his team’s first scorer in each of his previous four CL goalscoring matches.
• Ondřej Lingr has opened the scoring in two of three matches he has scored in, with Karviná winning the first-half ‘to-nil’ both times.
• Stat attack: Opava are the lowest scoring team in the league, with only 11 goals scored to date (0.46 per fixture).
• Only eight Karviná matches have produced three or more goals – a joint-league low.
• Karviná have averaged 2.8 yellow cards per game across their last five league outings.
