Sunday sees a key Czech First League Championship Round clash as Viktoria Plzen host Banik Ostrava with places in next season’s European competitions very much up for grabs. FC Viktoria will be keen to get back to winning ways after a first loss in six last weekend, while Banicek are looking for a first victory in the Championship Round. Here is our match prediction for what looks like being a keenly contested match.
In the regular Czech First League season, Plzen finished second to Slavia Prague in the table, finishing one point ahead of Banik Ostrava in third. As two of the six teams qualifying for the Championship Round, hauling in Slavia’s huge lead was never likely, but qualifying for Europe certainly is.
In the Championship Round, Viktoria Plzen have won one and lost one game, while Banik Ostrava have managed a draw and a defeat, meaning the gap between the two is now three points after 32 games.
Plzen began their Championship Round with a 2-0 home win over Sparta Prague, but last weekend they relinquished a 3-1 lead away to Slavia Prague, going down to a 4-3 defeat against the table-toppers.
In contrast, Banik Ostrava surprisingly lost their opening Championship Round match at home to Jablonec, losing 2-1, before last weekend being held to a 0-0 draw, also at home, by Sigma Oloumouc.

Our Viktoria Plzen vs Banik Ostrava Prediction
Our prediction for the Viktoria Plzen vs. Banik Ostrava Czech First League Championship Round match is: Viktoria Plzen wins the match.
These teams remain second and third in the table despite somewhat inconsistent results in the Championship Round thus far. However, of the two teams, it is Plzen that is in the best form of the two and with home advantage behind them and the knowledge that a win would move them six-points clear of Banik, we feel the data suggests they will pick up a narrow victory here.
