Pardubice – Teplice

Pardubice host Teplice in what promises to be a decisive clash in the lower half of the table, with the home side sitting 13th on five points after one win, two draws and five defeats, and a modest 7‑13 goal record. Teplice sit comfortably in eighth place, having amassed 13 points from four victories, a draw and three losses, while their goal balance sits at an even 15‑15. The gap of eight points means Pardubice will need to turn their defensive frailties around if they are to threaten a side that has proven capable of both scoring and conceding in equal measure. Historically, Teplice have enjoyed the better record in recent meetings, and they will look to extend that advantage as they aim to climb back into the top six. For Pardubice, a win would be a vital step toward escaping the relegation zone and narrowing the points deficit to the mid‑table pack.
