On Wednesday, January 28, the Ukrainian futsal team, which lost to Armenia (1:2) at the start and defeated Lithuania (4:1), will play a decisive match in the fight for a place in the quarterfinals of the European Championship against the team from the Czech Republic in the capital of Latvia, Riga.
VIDEO OF THE DAY
If our team, which has lost its chances of winning the group, is satisfied with a draw, then the Czechs, who drew with the Lithuanians (3:3) and lost to the Armenians (4:5), need to beat Ukraine to finish in second place (at the same time, Lithuania should not defeat Armenia by a large margin in a parallel match).
In previous years, the Ukrainians and Czechs have only met in friendly matches. The Yellow-Blues have won four matches, while their opponents have won two (total goal difference: 21:15).
In the upcoming match, bookmakers see the Ukrainian national team, which is ranked 8th in the FIFA rankings, as the clear favorite for the bronze medal of the World Cup. For example, the betting office accepts bets on the victory of the “yellow-blue” with a coefficient of 1.26, and on a draw and a win of the Czechs – 7.00.
