The well-known journalist and editor-in-chief of Football magazine Artem Frankov has prepared a forecast for the Slavia vs Dnipro-1 Europa League qualifying match.
Artem Frankov"Let's start with the fact that Dnipro-1 was not originally a favourite in this match. And after Dnipro sold Artem Dovbyk to Girona Artem Dovbyk to Girona, it's not really clear what they expect and how they plan to attack - by transferring Hutsulyak to centre forward? We know, we have been there...
The opponent is an experienced European Cup fighter, and he is also dissatisfied with last season, when Slavia won "only" the Czech Cup, losing the championship to Sparta on the last minute and failing to qualify for the Conference League. This summer, Slavia made good money on just one transfer - 23-year-old left-back David Jurasek was sold to Benfica for €14 million.
In the opening matches of the 2023/24 Czech Championship, Slavia won three confident victories with a total score of 7-2. My bet: "Slavia to win (-1.5) at 2.26," said Frankov.
