Cyprus hosts Czech Republic in a friendly international match. The match will be played on Wednesday, October 7th at AEK Arena (Larnaca)
The Cypriots are a quite good team, but they definitely don’t set the Thames on fire against the background of the Czech Republic. A month ago, the islanders lost to Azerbaijan (0-1) and Montenegro (0-2) in the 3rd division of the Nations League, so the level of the Cyprus national team is roughly understandable. The team does not close near its penalty area because it does not even know how to play defense first. Therefore, the hosts will surely play counterattacking football, but their defense is too problematic to hope for success.

A month ago, the Czechs got into an unpleasant coronavirus situation right after the match in Slovakia. They beat their neighbors with a 3-1 score, and then a completely different squad (with reservists and veterans) looked decent in the home match with Scotland, but the Scots managed to win. Now the Czechs don’t have any problems, and all regular players will come to Cyprus. Of course, friendly matches give a perfect opportunity for watching the reserve, but the class is still on the side of the visitors.
The teams played their last head-to-head match in the qualification for Euro 2008. The Czechs beat the rival twice (1-0 and 2-0, respectively), but it should be noted that those games have nothing to do with the current match. Several factors speak in favor of the visitors. The defenders of Cyprus have a very weak level, and only Laifis stands out, while the Czechs are significantly superior to their opponents in terms of game skills. I think the visitors will be happy to get together after a long break, and they have more chances of winning this game.
Prediction for the match: Czech Republic to win
