HOCKEY: Czech Republic
In the headliner of the round, second-placed Hradec will welcome first-placed Třinec, so there will definitely be something to look forward to, it will most likely be a very balanced duel, the last five duels ended with a maximum difference of 2 goals. Hradec managed to recover from three defeats in a row and won twice in a row, it was against easier opponents, but in both cases it was a clear-cut affair (win against Kladno 9:2 and against Zlin 5:2). Ahti Oksanen is doing well, scoring five points (3+2) in both games and is the most productive player of his team.
Trinec have an even broader base of productive players, among the most important ones are Martin Ruzicka and Andrej Nestrašil, both of whom have experience from the national team and at least one of them should definitely appear at the Olympics. Last time Trinec managed to win 4:3 after shootout against Kometa Brno, debutant Pavel Matěj scored twice in the shootout, the 19-year-old forward had a great debut. Offensively Trinec are doing very well as every year, they have scored 110 goals, in the pre-Christmas game they shot at Sparta and won 8:5.
Hradec has been one of the most defensive teams in recent years, but this time they are even one goal better than Trinec. However, in the duels between these teams, not so many goals have fallen, last time Hradec won 2:0. This time the visitors could win, they probably won't be at full strength (Andrej Nestrašil was missing in the last game), but Hradec will count more losses (including Bohumil Janek, who was suspended for eight games), so Trinec players will win to the decision.
My prediction: Trinec (to decision) @ 1.85 (bet365)
