Letna paradox. Pavel Vrba was preparing the team for the finals two weeks ago. Michal Horňák, who was promoted from Béčka, will sit on the bench in Uherské Hradiště in the postponed duel.

“I sleep surprisingly better, I don’t know how it’s possible. I wake up earlier, but I fall asleep well. I’m a little surprised. Compared to Béčka, I spend much more time in Strahov, “the coach compared before the trip to Moravia.
–
“After training in the B-side, I left, for example, around three o’clock in the afternoon. Now we are training and I am leaving Strahov, for example, around eight o’clock. The work is very much, we do not want to underestimate anything, we do everything to manage the last matches, “he added.

In the original term of the final, a burst of clouds washed away. While the weather cleared after two weeks, revealing the favorite became even more difficult. Slovácko won the league superstructure in Letná 2: 1. Although Sparta has had a turbulent period, during which she lost to Pilsen and coach Vrba has already managed to get on the train to Ostrava, but at the weekend she managed to beat Slavia after a good performance.
–
The match odds are currently almost balanced. Letenské’s basic time is rated at 2.75: 1. The odds of Slovácko are set at 2.77: 1, the draw is bet at 3.15: 1.

The odds for winning the trophy are also even tighter than two weeks ago. The Slovácko triumph was then awarded the odds of 2: 1, now it has dropped to 1.92: 1. Letna’s success was betting at a rate of 1.8: 1, currently a odds of 1.9: 1 is announced for it. However, unlike cautious bookmakers, the fans are clear, 81% of them expect the victory of Prague’s Sparta. The remaining 19% predict that Slovácko will win its first trophy in history.

“One week before the cup top, the finalists met at Letná in the league. None of the coaches wanted to reveal their trumps, but the spectators present could argue if coach Horňák had any in reserve at all. Sparta was dull on the pitch, Dočkal’s farewell to his career became significantly bitter and Sparta lost to active Slovácko 1: 2, “notes Michal Hanák, Fortuny’s main bookmaker.
–
“Sparta must have calmed down a good performance in Slavia, especially in the first half. Hložek, who definitely wants to say goodbye to the fans in the best possible way before leaving abroad, has made a name for himself. To sum up the past two weeks, Slovácko recorded wins against Sparta and Hradec, while Sparta experienced a relatively turbulent period. However, I still support the fact that it will be a balanced match and I would not be surprised if he reached extra time in the 3.15: 1 odds, “advises Hanák.

“The advantage for Martin Svědík’s team is mainly in the home environment. Solid fan support can traditionally be expected at the stadium in Uherské Hradiště. Sparta has experience with big and important matches, but the question is how much strength and determination it will have three days after the Eden derby. Thus, Slovácko can have the upper hand, where there will definitely be a huge motivation and commitment, “says Markéta Světlíková, Chance spokeswoman.
–
At her bookmaker, Sparta’s winnings appear on 65% of tickets. 20% of bets go to Slovácko’s win, the remaining 15% is a draw.
–
The final will show if Horňák managed to tune the team in a few days.
–
“The coach knows more players, because he worked as an assistant for coach Jílek, but many of them also know how to work in Béčka or youth categories. It brought a new wind to the cabin and the mood lifted, which was also helped by the winning derby, in which we presented ourselves with good organization of the game. I believe that this will be the case in the finals as well, “looks forward to defender Dávid Hancko.
