FC Kosice (away)

- While Kosice have won the last 2 head-to-head meetings, they are without a win in their last 2 trips to Skalica.
Key Players
- Marek Svec is the main man for Skalica with 3 goals in 15 Super Liga appearances this season but Petr Pudhorocky has been the danger man of late with 3 in his last 5 games for the club.
