Important game for Slavia. What line-up will they play against Ballkani?

Slavia is still riding the wave of euphoria from the derby, but they have to switch quickly. On Thursday at 21:00 they have a duel with Ballkani, which they have to win if they want to still think about promotion from the Conference League group.

Jindřich Trpišovský would surely love to take advantage of the euphoria of the derby and field the same line-up for Thursday’s game. But he can’t, because the scorers of the first two goals, Václav Jurečka and Jakub Hromada, are not on the roster for the Conference League.

So at least two changes will have to be made, but otherwise the lineup could remain very similar. Ondrej Kolar will be in goal for sure, as he is slowly getting back to his old form.

Only two stoppers are available, Aiham Ousou and Taras Kacharaba. David Jurásek is playing great on the left side, while Lukáš Masopust and David Douděra are swapping roles on the right side.

Christ Tiéhi will start in place of Hromada, as Trpišovský announced, and Oscar Dorley should start again at number eight. He played a match at his natural position after a long time, but in the derby he was one of the best players on the set.

In front of him will be Ondrej Lingr, who is a great fighter. Probably captain Peter Olayinka on the left wing and Stanislav Tecl instead of Jurecka on the tip. However, it is not excluded that Olayinka will move to the top and make room for Moses Usor on the wing.

Yira Sor’s return to the starting lineup is also in the cards, but due to his health, it is not expected.
