Preview

The fifth match of the ongoing Czech Super Series Week 2 will see the Vinohrady Biancos and Vinohrady Rossos lock horns. It is a crucial game for both the sides, more so for the Biancos whose first match against the Prague CC Knights got washed out. They lost to the Prague Spartans Vanguards in the next game as well and will have to somehow win the game to have a chance of making it to the knockouts.

The Rossos, on the other hand, are in a comparatively better position. They lost to the Prague Spartans Vanguards in their opening game but then came back strongly to defend 89 against the Prague CC Knights. A win in this game will more or less seal their place in the knockouts.

Weather Report

Like on Saturday, there is every chance of the opening game on Sunday to get washed out as well. There is 46% chance of rain while the temperature will hover in mid-10s during the match.
