Command Analysis

Sparta Prague

Current form
Sparta have put together a decent, competitive team in recent years, but setting the goal of making it to the playoffs would be extremely ambitious, as the competition in the Champions League is at the highest level. Lars Friis' team started with a crushing 3-0 win over Salzburg, and then sensationally snatched a 1-1 draw away from home against Stuttgart.
Despite a lively start, Sparta failed to build on their success, and a series of four defeats in a row followed. Having lost to Manchester City (0:5), Brest (1:2), Atletico (0:6) and Feyenoord (2:4), the Reds fell to 28th place in the table. However, there is still a chance to make it to the playoffs, as Sparta is only four points behind 24th place Dinamo Zagreb.
In the Czech championship, Sparta was considered one of the clear contenders for the championship title along with Slavia before the start of the season, but so far it is losing the fight to its main competitor. With 37 points, the Reds are only third in the table after 19 rounds and are already 13 points behind the leader Slavia, with Viktoria six points ahead.

Inter

Current form
Before the start of the Champions League, Inter were among the contenders for victory in the tournament, but were certainly not considered the clear favorites in the upcoming battle. Simone Inzaghi team started with a small but pleasant sensation, taking points away from Manchester City (0:0), and then consolidated this success with a crushing 4:0 victory over Crvena Zvezda on their home field.
Inter left no chance for Young Boys (1:0), Arsenal (1:0) and Leipzig, making a serious bid to finish in the top eight. However, in the last round, the Nerazzurri played their weakest match in the current Champions League, losing 0:1 to Bayer and failing to hit the opponent goal even once. Inter is currently sixth in the table and is ahead of ninth Borussia by only one point.
In Serie A, Inter was considered the main contender for the championship title, but so far it is losing the battle to its competitors. With 47 points, the Nerazzurri are second in the table and three points behind the leader Napoli, Atalanta is four points behind, while both competitors have played a match more. Having beaten Empoli 3:1 in the last round, Inter won its 14th victory of the season.

1.89Tip and bets
Inter has not yet secured a place in the top eight and will certainly be maximally motivated and charged only for victory today. Sparta is not a walkover opponent, despite four defeats in a row, but the hosts certainly lack experience and class. Today, Inter and Sparta, with all due respect to the Reds, are teams of different levels and solve different problems, the Nerazzurri are capable of winning in Prague without any particular problems and taking a step towards the 1/8 finals.
We think that the hosts have no chance. Betting Tip - Asian handicap (-1) on Inter . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 1.65
Bet on total
Inter is the undisputed favorite of the match and will certainly come only for the victory. Surely the guests will immediately go forward in large numbers and it is unlikely that Sparta has a real chance to play to zero, in the last two home matches of the Champions League the Reds received eight goals in their own net. At the same time, the situation obliges the hosts to take risks, Inter has been making mistakes regularly in defense lately, Sparta is capable of finding one moment and realizing it.
Bet - both teams to score. This bet is offered for 1.89
Combined rate
Inter needs to take the maximum today, a place in the top eight is far from guaranteed. It is obvious that the Nerazzurri are quite capable of solving such a task - Sparta is significantly inferior in experience and class, and in the last matches of the Champions League they looked frankly weak. At the same time, the Reds will definitely resist at home, the hosts also have a chance to get through to the playoffs, it will be very difficult to beat Sparta without scoring on their field, especially since Inter is not perfect in defense either.
The bet is Inter win and both teams will score. This bet is offered for 2.95
