HC Olomouc visit HC Sparta Praha in Saturday’s early game of the 14th round, with the league schedule showing a 16:00 start. The trip to the capital will be a special occasion for the Olomouc party: the club is organising its Mora Express train journey for the fifth time, with players, coaches and hundreds of supporters travelling together.
Olomouc will look to build on Thursday’s win over Mladá Boleslav and move closer to them in the standings. However, the team has not won under the lights at O2 arena for almost three years; its last victory there came on 30 December 2023.
Sparta are also seeking a response after losing to Liberec on Friday. Coach Patrik Augusta criticised his own team after the defeat. The Prague club sit 10th, a position the article says does not reflect its ambitions, and will aim to improve its home record.
