Compared to the fourth winning match with Maccabi Haifa (1: 0) in the European Conference League, five changes in the basic line-up. Instead of Kuchta, Krmenčík stood at the tip of the attack. For the first time from the beginning, the real Pardubice defender Halász joined the league.

Jeřábek stood up to her, but the goalkeeper Mandous caught the direction of his ending and managed to get them from Kostka’s goal from close range.
“I went for a penalty kick with a decision on where to shoot. Unfortunately, I changed it at the last minute, and it punished me. I shouldn’t have done it,” said 37-year-old Jeřábek in an interview with O2 TV. “The caught penalty was important. It came suddenly and completely threw us away. We had such a deaf five-minute passage there,” said Trpišovský.
At the end of the first half, the people of Prague could hit, but Boháč excelled twice in a while. At first, he stretched Krmenčík’s shot perfectly with his outstretched leg, and then he neutralized Stanci’s attempt from an angle.

“I didn’t give a clear chance in the first half, which I don’t feel very good about, but I have to say that the guys and the implementation team kept me going for the chances. They were my classic goals, I was in the right place. I have to thank the last ones, that they prepared it so fantastically for me in the empty gate, I’m glad for that, “Krmenčík remarked.
Carnival also assists in the third goal of the guests, when he recorded the finishing Lingr for himself. In the 75th minute, Lingr added another hit after a great shot under the crossbar. He scored the fifth goal in the league. He closed the score five minutes later with the first goal in the year of the highest competition Ekpai, who took advantage of a separate escape.

Slavia did not lose to Pardubice even in the third duel in the league and lost only one of the last 60 matches in the highest competition.
