Slavia Prague vs Sheriff Tiraspol Prediction

Slavia Prague host Sheriff Tiraspol in the second round of Group G in UEFA Europa League on Thursday evening in the Czech capital.

The hosts are looking to maintain the perfect record ahead of a double-header against group favorites Roma.

The Czechs dispatched Servette 2-0 on the road on the opening day via goals from defenders Lukas Masopust and Igoh Ogbu. The goals came from the team’s two lone shots on target on the occasion.

In terms of the domestic league, Slavia Prague played back-to-back low-scoring draws to Sparta Prague and Teplice in the last two rounds. They are now second in the league table with seven wins and three draws in the inaugural ten rounds.

As for Sheriff, they started off with a 1-2 home loss to Roma two weeks ago, conceding a second-half decider by Romelu Lukaku.

Since then, the Moldovan outfit managed two clean sheet wins over Zimbru and CSF Balti in their domestic league.

They share the top of the standings in Moldovan Divizia National with six wins and a loss in the opening seven rounds.

Knowing that Slavia Prague allowed just one goal in the last five games across competitions, we have more than enough reasons to expect a low-scoring scenario in their clash against Sheriff on Thursday.

Latest Meetings

These two meats last met each other in the third round of the UEFA Champions League qualifications in 2009.

Slavia Prague advanced on an away goal rule as we did not see the winner in either game (1-1 on aggregate).

The Verdict

The value is great with the Under 2.5 goals FT pick at the 2.15 odds since both teams have done very well defensively in the last several weeks.

Slavia have allowed only five goals in the opening ten games in the Czech Liga, while Sheriff shipped no more than three goals in seven domestic league affairs. You can alternatively back the home win to nil at the 2.25 odds.
