Liverpool-Sparta Prague is a match valid for the return leg of the Europa League round of 16 and is played Thursday at 9 p.m.: live TV, likely lineups, predictions.
It sealed the deal in the Czech Republic for Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool, the team most likely to win this Europa League. Five to one on the road and tonight’s match against Sparta Prague at home is merely a formality. So much so that the German coach, who as we know at the end of the season will leave the Reds, will deeply put his hand to the bench because he wants to play for the Premier League.
And this match allows one to look very calmly at the next league fixture because last Thursday’s result is so wide that it is difficult, indeed it is really impossible, to be able to think of reversals. There will be no upsets, indeed the English should even manage to increase the total tally because those that Klopp will send out will have precisely the desire to seek a victory, also to make the coach understand that perhaps they too have the qualities to find more space. It will therefore be a Liverpool that is as assaultive as usual, ready to immediately bite the bullet and close the accounts right away. Winning and entertaining over the course of 90minutes.
And Sparta Prague knows all this very well. The guests will at least try to make the ending less bitter by finding a goal. Will they succeed? We’ll tell you below.
The prediction
On the fact that the match has little to say we all agree. So here we give confidence to Sparta Prague that should be able to find as it happened in the first match at least one goal during the match. A challenge of at least three goals in total and maybe even four.
