  May 18, 2025 SK Sigma Olomouc - FC Viktoria Plzeň   Andrův stadion, Olomouc On Sunday, May 18, 2025, SK Sigma Olomouc will face FC Viktoria Plzeň in the 34th round of the Chance Liga. The match offers a clash between two teams with different ambitions at the end of the season. SK Sigma Olomouc have won just one of the last eight Chance Liga matches – a 3-0 home victory against České Budějovice on matchday 30. Since matchday 26, only Slovácko and Bohemians have as few wins as Sigma (1; D3 L4), with only České Budějovice recording no win in this timeframe. The home team is thus experiencing a significant results slump. FC Viktoria Plzeň have exactly as many points (68) as they had at this stage of the previous Chance Liga season. However, since the league reform in the 2018-19 season, Viktoria were below 68 points at this stage only once (58 in 2022-23; 55 in 2020-21 when no extra rounds were played). Viktoria have their highest position (2nd) since 2021-22 when they won ...

  May 17, 2025 1. FC Slovácko - FK Dukla Praha   Miroslav Valenta City Football Stadium, Uherské Hradiště, Czech Republic On Saturday, May 17, 2025, 1. FC Slovácko will face FK Dukla Praha in the 34th round of the Chance Liga. The duel between teams with completely different current forms promises an interesting confrontation. FC Slovácko haven't scored a single goal in the second consecutive game on the last Chance Liga matchday against Teplice and went goalless in six of the last nine league games. Slovácko have already played 16 goalless games this season, with only their first season (1995-96 as Slovácká Slavia Uherské Hradiště) having as many. The home team is thus going through a significant scoring crisis. FK Dukla Praha have won their second Chance Liga game in a row on the last matchday against Mladá Boleslav, for the first time since October 2018. If Dukla manage to beat Slovácko as well, they will draw level with their two longest streaks of three consecutive...

  May 11, 2025   Udinese Calcio - AC Monza Bluenergy Stadium, Udine, Italy On Sunday, May 11, 2025, Udinese will face Monza in the 36th round of Italian Serie A. The clash between teams battling in the lower part of the table offers interesting statistical connections and the possibility of extending several streaks. Udinese are unbeaten in their last five matches against Monza in Serie A (2 wins, 3 draws). Only against Pescara (eight), Alessandria (six), and Pisa (six) have the Bianconeri played more games without losing in the competition. Udinese and Monza have both drawn the Bianconeri's home games in Serie A: 2-2 in April 2023, 0-0 in February 2024. Against no team have the Brianzoli drawn three away matches in the competition so far. After a run of five defeats in a row, Udinese have earned four points in their last two Serie A games. The Bianconeri have failed to score in five of their last seven matches, as many as they did in their previous 23 league meetings. ...

  April 19, 2025 Lece - Como The Stadio Via del Mare in Lecce will witness on Saturday a clash between two teams with dramatically different current form. The home side Lecce, sliding down the table after a series of failures, hosts an in-form Como team that could achieve a historic milestone. Head-to-head statistics strongly favor the visitors. Como has never lost to Lecce in Serie A history, representing the Lariani's longest unbeaten streak against any opponent in Italy's top flight. In five previous encounters, Como has recorded four victories and one draw. On Lecce's ground, the visitors have played two matches – winning convincingly 4-1 in 1985 and drawing 0-0 in their most recent duel in 1989. "History is interesting, but matches are won on the pitch, not in statistical tables," cautions Como manager Cesc Fàbregas. "Lecce is a quality team going through a difficult period. That can make them even more dangerous. We're focusing on our game and w...

THE CURSE OF THE GOALLESS STREAK: CAN OYARZABAL FINALLY BREAK HIS BAD LUCK AGAINST THE WORST DEFENDING TEAM OF THE CENTURY? Real Sociedad - Real Valladolid March 29th, 2025 Real Sociedad has failed to win any of their last three matches against Real Valladolid in LaLiga (1 draw, 2 losses) and has not managed to score in all three duels. This is the Basque club's worst streak without scoring against this opponent in the history of the competition. Real Valladolid has won three of their last seven away games against Real Sociedad in LaLiga (4 losses), including a victory on their last visit in February 2023 (1-0). That's more wins than they had previously achieved against Real Sociedad in all their away games combined (2 wins, 9 draws, 23 losses). Valladolid can also boast excellent results in the Basque Country in general. They have won two of their last three trips to this region (1 loss), which is the same number of wins as in their previous 20 away matches against Basque...
