Sparta Prague vs Viktoria Plzen Prediction

Sparta Prague have had a wonderful week that saw them crowned Czech champions for the second consecutive season before winning the Cup for the 16th time. This was no less than Brian Priske deserved for overseeing a spectacular campaign and the 47-year-old will hope his side sign out of the season with a win as they present both trophies to their fans.

Viktoria Plzen have nothing left to play for, having already guaranteed third spot and a place in the UEFA Europa League qualifiers. Furthermore, they are winless in their last three games across competitions.

We are backing the hosts to claim a comfortable win with goals to be scored at both ends.

Prediction: Sparta Prague 3-1 Viktoria Plzen
