Rapid Wien vs Sparta Prague Prediction 20 July 2021

In the second round of qualifying for the Champions League, the draw brought Austrian Rapid and Czech Sparta together.

Rapid finished the 2020/21 season second, falling behind leading Salzburg by as much as fifteen points. And this summer, the Green-Whites had a very busy training camp, during which they got three wins, two draws and one defeat. The increased playing tone helped the team from Vienna take down Wiener Victoria 6:0 in the Austrian Cup match.

With 74 points and 82:43 goal statistics, Sparta also got silver medals. At the same time, champions Slavia were twelve points ahead of them. In the offseason, the Maroons did not get bored, having played control meetings with Hostone (8:1), Dukla (7: 0), Lisen (1: 0), Arsenal Tula (4:1), Spittal (4:1), Wolfsberger (2:3) and Dinamo Moscow (2:2).

Both teams are very productive in attack, but the defense is almost always forgotten. Despite the status of confrontation, we expect Rapid and Sparta to exchange accurate shots.
