Estonia Preview – Can Estonia spoil Czech plans?
Estonia are likely to be bracing themselves for this tough opening match in Group E when they play host to Czech Republic despite holding home advantage at their A. Le Coq Arena as the hosts have failed to win any of their last 16 matches in all competitions.
Within this 16-match slump are 12 defeats and Estonia will do extremely well just to avoid defeat here but even this may be easier said than done as Estonia have also failed to score in 10 of these 16 matches as well.
Estonia have picked up the odd win at home here and there in World Cup qualifiers with victories over Andorra (2013), Gibraltar (2016) and Cyprus (2017) but their last meeting against Czech Republic ended in a 2-0 defeat away from home but that was back in 2004.
Czech Republic Preview – Can visitors achieve Czech-mate ?
Czech Republic will be keen to get their World Cup campaign off to a positive start and they’ll be eyeing off all three points in Wednesday night’s clash in Tallinn as they prepare to do battle against an Estonian outfit who have starved of success in recent times.
The visitors have won five of their last eight matches overall which includes wins against Slovakia, Cyprus and Israel (all home and away), while also winning their last two World Cup qualifiers on the trot with wins against Azerbaijan and San Marino.
Czech Republic also hold a reasonable record away from home in World Cup qualifiers too as they’ve lost just three of their last 13 matches, so they’ll be confident that they can get a result here in this Group E opener.
