Slavia Prague Women and Brann Women go head-to-head at the Městský stadion Mladá Boleslav in Group B of the UEFA Women’s Champions League on Thursday.
Separated by just three points in the group, both sides head into the game knowing victory is essential in their quest for a place in the knockout stages.
Slavia Prague rekindled hopes of reaching the knockout stages of the Champions League last time out, when they picked up a 1-0 victory over St. Polten.
Karel Pitak’s side had failed to win their opening three matches, picking up just one point from the first nine available.
With four points from four matches, Slavia Prague are currently third in Group B, three points behind Thursday’s hosts in second place.
Meanwhile, Brann turned in a resilient team performance last time out when they fought back from two goals down to salvage a 2-2 draw against Lyon.
This came after their 3-1 defeat against Lyon in the reverse fixture on December 13, which saw their three-game unbeaten run come to an end.
While Brann will be looking to return to winning ways, they have struggled to get going away from home, where they have won just one of their last three games across all competitions.
