Georgia vs Czech Republic predictions

Georgia and Czech Republic will be desperate to get points on the board after losing their opening matches in Group F and, akin to the former's clash with Turkey on matchday one, an enthralling end-to-end spectacle could unfold in Hamburg.

The Georgians held their own in their first ever game at a European Championship when losing 3-1 to Turkey on Tuesday, only conceding the third on the break after goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili had gone up for a corner and allowed Kerem Akturkoglu to roll the ball into an empty net, and they will be looking to build on that promising start against the Czechs.

The Crusaders tested Turkey throughout their fiery clash in Dortmund and managed an impressive 14 shots, with five hitting the target.

Star man Khvicha Kvaratskhelia's creative brilliance shone as he recorded four key passe, while goalscorer Georges Mikautadze and Giorgi Kochorashvili combined for an impressive seven shots, highlighting that Georgia have the tools to hurt a Czech Republic side who were lucky to lose by only a one-goal margin against Portugal despite nearly holding out for a point.

Ivan Hasek's men had just 26 per cent of the possession in their opener and allowed 19 shots. No goalkeeper made more saves in matchday one than Jindrich Stanek's seven and he could be a busy man once more.

Georgia may not quite possess the quality of Portugal but, there is still more than enough talent in their ranks to trouble the Czechs.

Kvaratskhelia scored four goals in qualifying while Mikautadze and Budu Zivzivadze, who represents great strength in depth among their striking options on the bench, both chipped in with three.

Georgia scored in both games against Spain – arguably the team of the tournament so far – in qualifying, while the same is true for their clashes with Norway and they also put two past Scotland in November.

Willy Sagnol, despite being a solid defender in his playing days, tends to employ an attacking style and Georgia should keep up their scoring run in Hamburg.

The Czech Republic understandably come into this game as favourites due to their tournament pedigree and strong squad, which is headlined by West Ham midfielder Tomas Soucek and Bayer Leverkusen striker Patrik Schick, and they will expect to score against the Georgians.

Schick was the joint-top scorer at the last Euros with five strikes, while Soucek is a goal threat himself having netted 12 times for his country and Adam Hlozek and Lukas Provod also represent solid offensive options.

It seems likely the Czechs will score in Hamburg given they have netted 18 times in their last six matches and both teams to score has been a winning bet in their last five games. With Georgia's scoring prowess and their impressive opening-game display, it could pay to back the same selection when the nations clash on matchday two.

Key stat

Both teams have scored in the Czech Republic's last five matches

Georgia vs Czech Republic team news

Georgia
After a brave display in their opening game against Turkey, Willy Sagnol is unlikely to make any changes for this clash.

Czech Republic
Ivan Hasek will be keen to inject some more creativity into his side after a flat display against Portugal, meaning Antonin Barak and Mojmir Chytil could be granted starts.

Georgia vs Czech Republic bet builder predictions

Tomas Soucek to have 1+ shots on target
The West Ham midfielder managed one of his side's five shots against Portugal and top scored in qualifying for the Czech with three goals in qualifying, so could test the Georgian keeper in Hamburg.

Georges Mikautadze to have 1+ shots on target
The Metz forward was a livewire against Turkey, scoring once and taking four shots, and he should be taken to hit the target with an effort against the Czechs.

Giorgi Tsitaishvili to commit 1+ fouls
Vladimir Coufal is Czech Republic's biggest outlet and Giorgi Tsitaishvili, who committed a foul against Portugal, may have to bring down the flying wing-back to prevent a dangerous crossing opportunity on at least one occasion.
