Sparta Prague and Dinamo Moscow will continue their pre-season preparations when they trade tackles at the Sportarena Seeboden in a club friendly on Monday.
The Czech side come into the game on the back of a 3-2 defeat to Wolfsberger AC on Friday. Eliel Peretz scored midway into the second half to help the Austrian outfit complete the comeback victory.
Dinamo Moscow were on the wrong end of a 3-0 defeat to another Austrian side, LASK Linz. Thomas Golginger's first-half brace helped Linz race into a three-goal lead at halftime.
