Czech Republic to win the must-win game – free tip

The rookie won our hearts a little bit in his first game, but no points for respect.
Georgia and the Czech Republic both started the tournament with defeats, so the one of the two 0-point teams that loses will probably go out of the tournament. The favourites are the Czech team, but the newcomers have also had an excellent 90 minutes.
It didn’t start out as if Willy Sagnol’s side would be in the game against the Turks, as they barely crossed the halfway line before the equaliser. However, Georges Mikautadze’s historic goal encouraged the Caucasian side and they had a realistic chance of scoring until the last minute. So there is no reason to be ashamed, and the Czech Republic will be no more difficult opponents than Turkey.
“It’s never a good feeling to lose, but our first priority was to make a good impression on the football lovers. I think we can be proud of ourselves. We even had maybe as many chances as the Turks, but football is like that… I don’t want to call ourselves happy losers, but we are proud of our performance and we are looking forward to Saturday’s game,” said Sagnol.

As for the Czechs, although they managed to take the lead against the Portuguese through Provod, the Lusitanians eventually came back to take a well-deserved lead. Ivan Hasek’s boys played a very poor game, with 1 shot on goal and a 0.22 xG-rate showing how much they deserved to score. Patrik Schick, the top scorer three years ago, finished the game without a shot on goal, so it’s fair to say that the Czechs put one of their weakest products on the pitch in the first round.
Although there is a big gap between the Georgian and Portuguese teams, the Czechs need a big improvement, but coach Hasek does not plan to change his starting line-up, as on paper Sagnol will send out the names he saw in the first game.
In any case, the attitude of the Georgians could be interesting. Kvaratskhelia’s side played a particularly dangerous and spectacular game of football as they shrugged off their initial jitters, which may not weigh on their shoulders in the second game. However, the difference in quality is clear and the Czechs will not have such a poor day again.
Free pick for Georgia-Czech Republic
The stakes are high, as we wrote, and it could show in the cards. If the Czechs take the lead, Sagnol’s side can open up, giving them space for dangerous counter-attacks. Combining these two ideas, we’ve put together a safer bet az Bet365, hoping for two goals and three cards, with the Czech scoring.
