Prediction: 0-2
Czech Republic
After suffering a 3-1 loss to Turkey on their European Championship debut, Georgia will look to give fans some cheer when they take on Czech Republic at Volksparkstadion. Napoli ace Khvicha Kvaratskhelia should keep his place up front, alongside Georges Mikautadze, who scored the equalizer against Turkey, while defender Solomon Kvirkvelia is one yellow card away from suspension.
The Czechs, on the other hand, were on the verge of holding star-studded Portugal to a draw in their opener, but eventually Francisco Conceicao scored a late winner for A Selecao. Ivan Hasek’s men, though, produced a fine display against Cristiano Ronaldo and Co. and given Georgia’s shaky defence, away win should definitely be considered. Bayer Leverkusen forward Patrik Schick should be cautious in Saturday’s showdown after picking up a yellow card in the Group F opener. It has to be noted that Czech Republic and Georgia meet for the first time in a competitive match.
Highlighted Player (Patrik Schick):
Patrick Schick is a Czech Republic international who plays for Sampdoria as a striker. Schick was born in Prague on January 24, 1996 and he started his career at the youth team of his home-town club Sparta Prague. The 187-cm-tall attacker, played only four games for the capital club before moving to Bohemians 1905 on loan in 2015.
After ending his loan spell with the Klokani, Patrick Schick moved to Italy, signing a deal with Serie A side Sampdoria for a fee of €4 million. The Czech footballer has been playing for La Samp ever since and you should know that he scored 11 goals in 32 appearances for the club in the 2016/2017 Serie A campaign.
The talented striker, who is very good in the air, scored on his debut for Czech Republic in a 6-0 win over Malta in May 2016. Patrick Schick’s preferred foot is left and his contract with Sampdoria should expire on June 30, 2020.
Highlighted Team (Georgia):
Georgia are yet another former Soviet republic who have been competing as an independent country since 1990. The Georgians had their international debut on May 27, 1990, with the team sharing the spoils with Lithuania in Tbilisi.
Georgia have been struggling in the qualifiers for both FIFA World Cup and the European Championship ever since they played their first qualifying game and they have yet to book their place at the finals of the major tournaments. The Georgian national football team recorded their biggest win on March 30, 1997, with the team hammering Armenia in front of home fans, but they were demolished by Denmark (1-6) eight years later and that is considered the team’s biggest loss.
The Likes of Kakha Kaladze and Shota Arveladze are considered Georgia’s most famous players. Kakha Kaladze played for Georgia from 1996 to 2011, scoring one goal in 83 appearances for the national team. The left-footed defender won two Champions League titles with Serie A giants AC Milan (2003, 2007).
