Viktoria Plzen lineup: Kozáčik - Rajtoral, Hejda, Procházka, Limberský - Horváth, Hořava - Petržela, Kolář, Kovařík - Bakoš. Bakos up front might be a risk as he is only getting his match fitness back as he has been out with a couple of injuries lately. Hejda in defence is the weak link, a...

This is what I posted some days ago. As far as football is concerned, Plzen play a compact 4-5-1 or a 4-2-3-1 if you are into that sort of thing, usually relying on quick wing play with Pavel Horvath supplying the men in front of him from midfield . And although Viktoria have surprised a big...

Napoli fielded a mixed team in the first leg, but Cavani was there and Hamsik got subbed in at half time. Even without the usual starting eleven they started off really strong but they only kept it up for a few minutes before Plzen took the initiative. Viktoria was the better side in the first...

I wouldn't be so sure. Plzen are brave enough when they feel they might get something out of a game even against a better opponent, but when facing someone way stronger, coach Vrba has often been surprisingly passive and careful, going against the way they are used to play and pretty much...

I have posted this before, only a fool would use the game against Zeljo as any sort of measure of their quality. One of Plzen's first games of the season and basically a game where the opposition somehow managed to score with basically all three of their shots on goal – yet still managed to...

Club officials expect some 800 fans according to official away team ticket sales, with another two hundred or so City fans obtaining tickets through various means and on an individual basis.

Re: Who are FC Viktoria Plzeň? That's not the subway but an intercity bus. You only take the subway to Zlicin. This particular line is run by Student Agency. Don't get fooled by the name, they run plenty of lines throughout the country and have a fleet of comfortable buses. Can recommend. Also...

Re: Who are FC Viktoria Plzeň? I would not read into the Zeljeznicar game too much. Plzen were clearly not yet ready before the new season and it seemed as if every Zeljo shot somehow turned into a goal. Viktoria controlled and won the away game when down to ten men, too. Not letting them have...

Re: Who are FC Viktoria Plzeň? Expect less than a thousand tickets for the away team. When Plzen hosted Fenerbahce in the quarterfinal of last season's Europa League, there were only 620 tickets available to the visitors with a further 200 for club partners and the like despite demand for more.

Re: Who are FC Viktoria Plzeň? The game will be played in Plzen. Viktoria have only played in Prague as their own ground was under reconstruction to conform to UEFA competition regulations. An hour by car from Prague, or about an hour and a half from Nuremberg. Seats close to 12 thousand. A...
