SK Sigma Olomouc (home)
- SK Sigma Olomouc are a structured, compact, defensively solid and disciplined team who like to build from the back and play simply at a high tempo in a narrow shape.
- Tomas Janotka has instilled a strong culture since his appointment in May 2024 and Sigma are currently 5th in 1. Liga 2025/2026 on 39 points from 25 games.
- The Olomouc club have won 7, drawn 3 and lost 2 of their 12 home games in 1. Liga 2025/2026, averaging just 0.92 goals per game as they have focused heavily on keeping it tight at home.
- Abubakar Ghali is their top scorer in 1. Liga 2025/2026 with 4 goals in 19 appearances.
- Sigma are unbeaten in 5 (Won 4, Drawn 1) coming into Sunday’s game after beating Bohemians 1905 1-0 at home in their last league match and Lausanne-Sports 2-1 away in the UEFA Conference League last Thursday.
MFK Karvina (away)
- MFK Karvina sits 8th in the 1. Liga 2025/2026 table on 32 points and they are an energetic, high-pressing team who are happy to get the ball wide and run at the opposition.
- Marek Jarolim has had a positive impact on the club since taking charge in October 2025, bringing a new style of play which has been exciting to watch, but has come at the expense of solidity at the back.
- The only bright spark in their recent form has been a 3-0 home win over Viktoria Plzen in the Czech Cup, but league form has been inconsistent - 4 defeats and 1 win in their last 5.
Head-to-Head
Olomouc have averaged 2.0 goals per-game in their last 5 head-to-heads at Sigma's ground, with Karvina averaging 1.5 in the same games, but Sunday’s hosts are yet to beat their guests in the last 3 meetings after a 1-1 draw at Karvina in their most recent game.
Key Players
- Abubakar Ghali is their top scorer in 1. Liga 2025/2026 with 4 goals in 19 appearances.
- Emmanuel Ayaosi is Karvina’s top scorer with 5 goals in 25 league games.
- Pavel Kacor, who has 2 goals in the last 5, is their main striker and in the form of his life at the moment.
Betting Insights
- Sigma are in form and have a strong defensive record, while Karvina are inconsistent on the road and will not always show up.
- A home victory for Sigma is the main tip as the 2.02 odds look very generous.
- The main reason for this is that Karvina like to press and get forward and will make Sigma’s job very easy if they are able to keep it tight and keep their structure on the ball.
- Both Teams to Score - No is another 2.02 option to consider here, as Karvina have scored 19 goals in 12 away games and are likely to attack in 1. Liga 2025/2026 this Sunday.
Prediction
- Back Sigma Olomouc to win.
- Consider Both Teams to Score - No as a secondary play at 2.02.
