The Czech Extraliga resumes with six games in round 14 after Sparta Praha beat Olomouc 2-1 in overtime on Saturday. The schedule starts unusually early, with first-placed HC Oceláři Třinec hosting third-placed HC Energie Karlovy Vary at 10:30. Třinec will look to respond after losing 6-2 at home to Motor České Budějovice on Friday, while Karlovy Vary bring the league’s best defence into the matchup.
The day’s headline fixture is the East Bohemian derby between Mountfield HK and second-placed HC Dynamo Pardubice at 17:00. Mountfield won the teams’ first meeting of the season 5-3. Pardubice arrive without several injured key players, including Roman Červenka and Lukáš Sedlák, but have scored points in their last 10 games; their winning run ended on Friday at Kladno.
Other games see BK Mladá Boleslav host Motor, Rytíři Kladno face HC Vítkovice Ridera, Bílí Tygři Liberec play HC Škoda Plzeň, and HC Verva Litvínov meet HC Kometa Brno. All six games will have text commentary on Hokej.cz.
