Full analysis:

For Ostrava and the whole region, the biggest game that can be. The hatred towards Sparta is really huge. Moreover, Baník is having a great season after many years and currently holds 2nd place in the Czech league. Sparta has 2 points less and is in 4th place. The stadium is hopelessly sold out. This match will not be a battle for points, this match will be a war on the pitch and in the stands.

Referee Dalibor Cerny has an average of 4.3 yellow cards per game. However, it is important to note that in less heated matches he is able to call the match without a card, on the contrary, when things are sparking between the two teams, he is not afraid to draw 8 yellow cards.

The game form is clearly on Baník's side. In addition, the captain and the club's biggest star Ewerton has returned after an injury. On the other hand, Sparta, after an unpleasant hesitation in Liberec, got another slap on the wrist at home from Plzeň, when they lost 2:4. The Prague team confirmed with this result how fragile their team is and how uncomfortable they have been playing in recent weeks.

The odds of 2.60 for Baník to win are very tempting, but I believe more in the bigger number of cards. I'll take odds of 2.23 on over 5.5 yellow cards.
