LiontipsSlavia Prague - Lens: betting tip (cf 1.85) and bets on the Champions League match
Command Analysis
Current form
Thanks to the successful performances of Czech clubs in the European arena, Slavia made its way to the main stage of the Champions League directly. Last season, the Czechs played in the main European tournament, but failed to score a single victory (three draws and five defeats), scored only five goals and took the final 34th place. Generally speaking, Indřich Tršipovski's team cannot win at the main stage of the tournament in 19 consecutive games and today they can complete such an unsuccessful series.
In the Czech Republic championship, the red-whites lead the standings with 17 points and have not suffered a single defeat in seven rounds. Let's note the high performance of Slavia - 21 goals were scored, and the defensive game is also impressive – only five goals were conceded. In the last two rounds, the team did not miss at all and won two major victories. Trshipovski's team defeated Zbroevka (4:0) in the last match, and earlier they left no chance for Sparta on its field (3:0).
Disqualifications and injuries
Winter, Wire, Golesh, Ouanda and Suleiman will not help the club due to injuries.
Interesting betting trends
- The Red-whites have not lost on their own field in five consecutive games.
- Slavia has scored an average of three goals since the start of the Czech championship.
Approximate line–up: Markovic – Vlcek, Haloupek, Konecny - Isife, Novak, Sadilek, Yurasek – Sturm, Ayaosi – Choirs.
Current form
After winning the French Super Cup over PSG (1-0), Lance got off to a great start in Ligue 1, defeating Auxerre (5-2) in the home match of the first round. Such indicators gave hope for another strong season, but the mixed results in the last two matches defy logic. The failed realization of scoring chances with 34 shots, 4.19 xG in total and one goal scored from the penalty spot in the matches against Strasbourg and Lorient led to two defeats. The blood-gold lost to the Alsatians 1:2, and to the dark orange (0:1).
Dino Toppmeller's team took second place at the end of last season and directly made it to the main stage of the Champions League, where they will meet with Como, Sporting, Brugge, Buda/Glimpt, RB Leipzig, Liverpool, Manchester City and Slavia. So there won't be an easy ride in any of the matches. The last time the Blood Gold played in the main European tournament was in the 2023/24 season, but they could not get out of the group and went from third place to the Europa League, where they lost to Freiburg in the 1/16 finals.
Disqualifications and injuries
Baydu, Nawrocki, Titraoui and Abdulhamid will miss the game due to injuries, while Udol and Celik are questionable.
Interesting betting trends
- Lance has suffered three defeats in the past five matches.
- In two of the last three matches, the blood-gold referees showed a red card.
Approximate composition: Risser – Antonio, Ganiu, Todibo – Aguilar, Aidara, Kuizans, Skouras – Tovin, Ivanovich – Eduard.
Trends
The exact score is 1:0
In 2 of the last 4 meetings, the hosts won with a "dry" score
Bet 1 half: "Lance" will not score
In 4 of the last 5 matches, the Czechs did not concede in the first half.
Bet 2nd half: victory of Slavia
In 3 of the last 5 games, the Red-whites won in the second half.
Tip and bets
Slavia is considered a slight favorite by the bookmakers in today's meeting, and they believe in Lance's victory, but not to the full extent. One cannot disagree with this. The French don't look their best in Ligue 1, but the red and white are playing well defensively and are leading the Czech Championship thanks to excellent scoring.
The Blood-gold are in a bit of a crisis, they have lost in the last two matches and scored only one goal, and that was from the penalty spot.
On the contrary, Slavia is on the rise and will be number one in its field. The Czechs use high pressure, ball control and defensive flanking connections, which has led to two consecutive wins with a total score of 7:0. In general, Trshipowski's wards should not have any big problems. We believe that today the hosts will take advantage of Lance's personnel problems and instability, which will lead to victory, but we will play the bet with a safety net.
Betting Tip – Asian handicap (0) for Slavia with a coefficient of 1.85
Bet on the total
It should be noted that in four of the past six blood-gold matches there were no more than two goal takings, and today we will definitely not see open football. Let's note the fact that the hosts are excellent defensively and have not conceded a single goal in the last two matches. We can assume that the opponents will play well in defense and, most likely, they will not be able to break through the main total.
The betting tip is a total of less than 2.5 goals with a coefficient of 2.05
Betting on corners
The guests, in our opinion, will play indoor football, and Slavia will try to open their defenses. In the last three out of four matches, no more than nine corner kicks were served in all tournaments, and we believe that there will not be too many corners today.
The betting tip is that the total number of corners is less than 9.5 with a coefficient of 2.02
