Czech Republic v Georgia

Czech Republic vs Georgia Preview

Czech Republic extended their unbeaten sequence in Group 1 of the Nations League B to four games on Saturday when they earned a point in a 0-0 draw away from home at Albania which maintained their position at the top of the Group 1 table, while Georgia's winless run became three games when they were held to a 1-1 draw at home by bottom placed nation, Ukraine, on the weekend.

Following a disappointing showing back in the summer in the Euro 2024 finals which resulted in two defeats in their three group games, Czech Republic have turned their recent form around as Ivan Hašek's side have picked up two wins and two draws of late.

An opening heavy 4-1 thrashing away from home at Georgia did not seem to bode well for Czech Republic but the hosts have since collected important wins against Ukraine and Albania in 3-2 and 2-0 wins respectively along with picking up useful points by way of draws with Ukraine and Albania, both of which were away from home.

However, despite their current position at the top of the Group 1 table, one can't help but feel there may be another twist in the tale for Czech Republic in what has been a highly competitive group, especially as the hosts have managed to collect just two wins in their previous eight games overall, while also slipping to three defeats.

Georgia occupy second place in the Group 1 table where they trail their upcoming hosts by a slender one-point margin ahead of this upcoming encounter at the Andruv stadion but recent results have not been very encouraging at all for Willy Sagnol's side a they have failed to win any of their previous three games in the Nations League.

Following early back-to-back wins against Czech Republic and Albania in 4-1 and 1-0 victories respectively, the visitors have since stumbled to two defeats and a draw but they are still in the frame for possible automatic promotion up to League A.

Indeed, a win for Georgia in this upcoming Matchday 6 clash in Group 1 would see Sagnol's side claim top spot and promotion but having slipped up in recent games, there are certainly no guarantees for the visitors in this clash.

To underline this, Georgia have managed to capture just three wins from their last nine internationals overall along with being handed four defeats, so the goals market may be more prudent for this upcoming fixture.

Czech Republic v Georgia Verdict

The goals market beckons for this upcoming fixture as no fewer than eight out of Czech Republic's last 10 matches overall have resulted in both teams scoring, while six of Georgia's last 10 games have also resulted in both teams hitting the back of the net.
