On Thursday, it’s crunch time for both Czechia and Ireland. Both nations are dreaming of making an appearance at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, which is set to be the biggest soccer event in history. Unfortunately, only one of these teams can progress. Blessed with home advantage, the men with the Prague crowd behind them will surely be expecting to get the job done, and the early market agrees.

However, the visitors have shown at times over the last year or so that they can pack a punch away from home, most recently when defeating Hungary to make the playoffs. Can they treat their traveling fans to another glorious night on the road? 

This is far from an easy game to call, but on home soil, against opposition that doesn’t always defend securely, someone like Pavel Šulc should really fancy himself to do some damage, and for my money, the Czech talisman looks a decent bet to do just that.

Our Czechia vs Ireland Prediction

Given that the visitors typically concede plenty of goals and chances in away games of this nature, I cannot help but think that Pavel Šulc, who has recently shown his scoring prowess in Ligue 1, is a little generously priced to find the net. The crafty forward, who is very good at both running in behind and arriving late on the edge of the box, has all the qualities necessary to be the main man for his nation here, and given his scoring form in 2026, I think he should be shorter in the betting. I'm betting on him to find the net at odds of +295.
