Skalica
- Skalica are 12th in Super Liga 2025-2026, with 16 points from 21 games.
- Roman Hudec took over as Skalica head coach in December 2025 and has made the team much more resilient and harder to beat by implementing a pragmatic, defensive-first approach.
- His players will sit deep, hold their shape and concede as few easy chances as possible - especially at home.
- Their recent record of one win, one draw and three losses is not particularly encouraging, but Skalica have been unbeaten in their last two home games, including a 2-1 success over Zemplin Michalovce, and are unbeaten in their last two home meetings with Trencin.
Trencin
- Trencin are five points better off, sitting 11th after the same 21 fixtures.
- Ricardo Moniz’s men are much improved from the start of the season since he took over in July 2025 and have developed a fast-paced, compact, transition-based game in which pace and verticality are crucial.
- Trencin are not afraid to press the ball, especially in wide areas where they aim to force their opponents into turnovers and give themselves space to exploit in the counter attack.
Head-to-Head
- Trencin have failed to win their last two visits to Skalica.
- The last meeting between the two clubs finished 1-1 at Trencin.
Key Players
- Eynel Soares is in red-hot form in front of goal with three goals in his last three Super Liga games, but has actually netted all of Trencin’s goals in their past five.
- Marek Svec is Skalica’s leading league scorer with three in 15 appearances.
Betting Insights
- We are taking Under 2.5 goals here at 1.83 because Skalica are not a side that plays at a high tempo and they will try to control the pace of this game.
- The hosts have won two, drawn six and lost two of their ten home games in Super Liga 2025/2026, averaging just 0.90 goals per game.
- Trencin have won four, drawn one and lost five of their 10 away games, averaging 1.00 goals per away game while conceding 1.90.
- The bookmakers have Skalica as slight favorites at 2.04 with Trencin at 3.4 and the draw 3.25.
- Trencin have one win, two draws and two losses in their last five games while Skalica have one win, one draw and three defeats in the same period.
Prediction
- We will take the underdog option of Trencin to get a result because they are a much better away team than Skalica are at home.
- We are avoiding the draw here.
