We feel that Slavia Prague should be able to create a decent number of chances and shots on target.
However, Sigma Olomouc might well find it a difficult task to get shooting opportunities although we do reckon that they could well end up hitting back at some stage here.
We can therefore see a comfortable 3-1 winning margin for Slavia Prague by the time that the referee blows the final whistle.
