Ukraine vs Czechia Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

The hosts are lingering at the bottom of the group in the standings.

Ukraine will look to build upon their newly found confidence in the UEFA Nations League after securing their first win against Albania over the weekend. The Blue and Yellow have looked a balanced side under the tutelage of Serhiy Rebrov. They will look to maintain a solid backline and then create chances on the break with the help of their pacy wingers upfront. They are currently placed at the bottom of the table with a win and two defeats.

The Czech Republic on the other hand sit at the second spot on the table with six points to their name. They have won their games against the Blue and Yellow and Albania after facing a defeat to Georgia in the tournament opener. Czechia will rely on their tactical discipline and compact shape to tackle the danger possessed by their opponents.

Players to watch 

Mykhaylo Mudryk (Ukraine)

The Chelsea forward has established himself as an integral part of his nation’s attacking unit. He is known for his pace, dribbling and ability to take on defenders in 1v1 situations. Mudryk possesses an excellent work rate and is regarded as one of the best modern time forwards.

His silky moves and attacking flair add a lot of life to his gameplay. He scored the winning goal in his side’s last game against Georgia.

Tomáš Chorý (Czechia)

The Slavia Praha man scored two goals in the last game against Albania. He became the joint highest goalscorer for his side in the process. His aerial abilities, physical presence and finishing skills make him an important part of the Czech Republic’s forward line.

He is still not a regular starter for the national team but is well on course to establish himself as one of the most important players for Czechia.
