Full analysis:

In my first analysis of this match I analysed the form of both teams and their current attitudes. In this second analysis for the Slavia - Sparta derby, I will look at the atmosphere I expect today. As I mentioned in my previous analysis, Sparta are currently in disarray on several fronts and are very vulnerable, something Slavia and especially their fans know and smell blood. Even though Slavia is already assured of the league title, today will definitely not be about doing their duty and playing a nothing game. The fans will want to see the complete destruction of Sparta. For both sides, there is virtually no better feeling than seeing the other side at the very bottom. A sold out stadium of Slavia will not let their players breathe a sigh of relief. They'll be chasing them for the most crushing victory possible. Moreover, we know from the past that derbies at the stadium of Slavia are always very heated and the atmosphere pushes the players, the benches of both teams and the referees into heated situations.

The game will be officiated by the somewhat surprisingly young and inexperienced Jan Beneš. It will be the biggest match of his career for the 24-year-old referee, who is in his first season in the league. He currently has an average of 3.2 yellow cards per game and 0.5 red cards per game. However, when we look at the slightly more heated games he has officiated, we always see at least 5 yellow cards. Today, unfortunately, I expect the game to get a little out of hand and a little wild. Prague derby is really specific, especially on the field of Slavia. That's why I expect to see more than 5.5 yellow cards at odds of 2.17. If you want, you can also try for a red card at odds of 3.00. At some bookmakers it is also possible to place a bet: will there be a red card or a penalty, odds 2.20.
