Sparta Praha hold the stronger provisional league position, but Lillestrom’s supplied away figures offer a clear defensive question at Stadion Letná.
Before kickoff
The table gap meets Lillestrom’s away resistance
Sparta Praha are ranked #3 in the provisional UEFA Europa League table with 3 points from 1 game, while Lillestrom are #24 with 0 points from 1 game and a -1 goal difference. Sparta are 3 points ahead of Lillestrom (3 v 0), with league leader Juventus on 3 points; Sparta trail Juventus by 0 points and Lillestrom by 3.
That makes Thursday’s League Stage - 2 fixture at Stadion Letná a test of whether the early table positions are supported by the available form. Sparta’s recent sample contains 1 match, a win. Lillestrom’s sample contains 3 matches, listed most recently as Draw, Win, Loss. In the supplied away figures, Lillestrom have 0 wins, 1 draw and 0 losses, with 0 goals conceded and 1 clean sheet.
Absences shape the available options
Sparta list M. Andersen, E. Cobbaut, A. Karabec, J. Martinec, L. Mbe Soh, O. Penxa, M. Rynes and E. Uchenna as missing. Lillestrom list E. B. Garnas and C. Jebara as missing, while L. Alperud is questionable. Both teams list 4-3-3 as a preferred formation, but that alone does not establish their match plan.
Question for kickoff
Can Lillestrom preserve their away clean sheet against a Sparta Praha side arriving with a win in its 1-match recent-form sample?
