Georgia vs Czech Republic Predictions & Match Preview

Georgia vs Czech Republic Prediction

Czech Republic could not hold on to their lead in the 2024 Euro opener against Portugal, conceding two late goals in the first round clash.

They will have a nice chance to bounce back on Saturday afternoon in the match against Georgia at Volksparkstadion in Hamburg.

• Czech Republic won five of their last six games in all competitions.
• Georgia allowed eight shots on target in a 1-3 defeat to Turkey on the opening day.
• Patrik Schick was one of the top scorers of the 2020 Euro.
• Eight of Georgia’s last ten matches across competitions provided at least three goals.

Czech Republic gave Portugal a game in their first match in the tournament. They got a shocking lead as Lukas Provod broke the deadlock just after the hour-mark.

Nevertheless, Portugal completed a super-late comeback to deny the Czechs on the occasion.

Georgia revealed plenty of holes in the back line in their inaugural appearance at a major tournament.

The team led by former French left-back Willy Sagnol conceded eight shots on target in a 1-3 defeat to Turkey on Tuesday.

Georgia vs Czech Republic Predicted Lineups and Team News

Willy Sagnol has a clear look at his best starting XI and he is not expected to make any changes to the squad that faced Turkey four days ago.

Ivan Hasek is in a pretty much similar situation. Other than midfielder Michal Sadilek, he can count on all players on the roster.

We expect Hasek to name the same starting lineup from the clash against Portugal in a 3-5-2 formation.

Georgia (5-3-2): Mamardashvili – Kakabadze, Kvirkvelia, Kashia, Dvali, Tsitaishvili – Kochorashvili, Mekvabishvili, Chakvetadze – Mikautadze, Kvaratskhelia

Czech Republic (3-5-2): Stanek – Holes, Hranac, Krejci – Coufal, Sulc, Soucek, Provod, Doudera – Kuchta, Schick

Czech Republic to get their maiden win of the tournament

Czech Republic arrived in Germany in a red-hot form, winning five consecutive matches across competitions.

They’ve scored at least two goals in each of these five victories, including seven goals in the drubbing of Malta in an exhibition earlier this month.

Ivan Hasek’s men translated such form into the start of Euro, causing one of the tournament’s favourites huge problems on the opening day of Group F.

Georgia are debutants at European Championships. They only made it to the competition thanks to the Nations League playoffs.

Willy Sagnol’s men did not look great defensively on the opening day. The fact they allowed eight shots on goal against Turkey speaks volumes.

There is a lot to like about Czech Republic’s win at the 1.72 odds here.

Patrick Schick to thrive against the leaky Georgian defence

Patrik Schick was one of the top scorers of the previous European Championship. He enjoyed a great campaign on club level last season with Bayer Leverkusen as well.

The Czech’s target man did not have too much space to deliver in the first match against Portugal.

However, the clash against the leaky Georgian defence should give him much more room to find the back of the net.

The value is great with the 2.75 odds offered for Patrik Schick to score anytime on Saturday afternoon.
