Command Analysis

Czech Republic

Current form
The start for the Czech Republic in the framework of the World Cup started very successfully. However, in the first match against Switzerland, the team had serious defensive problems, which almost led to a defeat. The Czechs made a comeback with great difficulty, equalizing the score in the third period, and then succeeded in overtime with a final score of 5:4. Chervenka became the most productive, scoring three effective actions.
Further along the way, the reigning champions encountered only outsiders. The team snatched Victoria from Norway with a difference of only one goal (2:1), and then defeated Denmark with a score of 7:2. The Danes show a terrible game in matches with favorites, which the Czechs took advantage of. It's hard to even single out any of the players, since almost all of them excelled. A similar situation occurred in the next match with Hungary, in which the Czech Republic again achieved a very confident victory (6:1). This time, Boston forward Pastrniak scored a double and provided an assist. Thanks to such successful performances, the national team is the leader in the Group B table.
Disqualifications and injuries
Kondelik and Kundratek will not be able to participate in the upcoming match due to injuries. Lauco is also questionable.
Interesting betting trends
- The Czech Republic wins 51.4% of face-offs according to statistics.
- On average, the Czechs make 32 shots on target.

Kazakhstan

Current form
Kazakhstan is one of the outsiders in this tournament and cannot expect to qualify for the playoffs. The team successfully started the World Cup and was able to defeat Norway in the first match, snatching it in regular time with a one-goal difference (2:1). However, the success of the national team came to an end. The Kazakhstanis faced a clear favorite in Germany and were defeated (1-4). The defensive line did not hold back the opponent's powerful pressure, allowing him to create a huge number of dangerous moments in his zone.
It seemed that the team would be able to at least give a decent rebuff to not the most serious rivals, but this did not happen. Kazakhstanis failed to cope with Hungary (2:4), and then suffered another defeat from Denmark (1:5). As you can see, the team is experiencing serious problems in attack and cannot show its full attacking potential.
Disqualifications and injuries
Kazakhstan has no problems with the composition.
Interesting betting trends
- On average, Kazakhstan scores 1.5 goals per match.
- Kazakhstanis make 21 shots per match.

3.25Tip and bets
As you can see, Kazakhstan cannot give a decent rebuff to obvious favorites and often suffers crushing defeats. It is unlikely that anything will change, which means that you should not expect a decent performance from the Kazakhstanis, especially in a duel with the reigning champion. The Czechs are having a great time in the group stage and are consistently coping with any competitors on their way. We believe that the Czechs will not leave any chances to the opponent and will defeat Kazakhstan with a difference of more than three goals.
Our betting tip is that the Czech Republic will win with a handicap of (-3.5) goals in 1.75
Bet on the total
Also, in the upcoming match, it is quite possible to expect a large number of abandoned goals, given the serious attacking potential of the Czech Republic. The defense of Kazakhstan cannot boast of reliability, which will allow the Czechs to fully realize themselves and will have a good effect on the overall effectiveness of the meeting.
Betting Tip - total more than 5.5 goals in 1.65
Betting on the outcome of the first period
Of course, the Czech Republic will demonstrate its superiority over its opponent from the first minutes of the match. It is unlikely that Kazakhstan will be able to hold back the powerful pressure, so the Czech Republic has every chance to gain an advantage after the start.
