Artis – Pardubice

Artis host Pardubice in what promises to be a tight contest at the bottom of the table, with the home side sitting 14th on four points after a solitary win, one draw and six defeats, scoring just seven while conceding 18. Pardubice sit a notch above them in 13th place with five points from one victory, two stalemates and five losses, their goal tally slightly better at seven for and 13 against. Both teams will be desperate to turn their meagre returns into a crucial three points, and the narrow gap in the standings suggests a fight for every inch. A win for either side could lift them out of the relegation‑watch zone, while a slip would deepen the pressure as the season reaches its decisive phase.
