The people of Prague won only one of the last seven rounds and in the table only reached the third place Ostrava, which suffered a 1:3 defeat in Jablonec. Sparta’s loss to city rivals Slavia can increase to 14 points on Sunday if Vršovičtí wins at the stadium of hopelessly last České Budějovice.

With the loss, Letenští spoiled Saturday’s celebration of 131 years since the foundation of the club. At the same time, they couldn’t get in the perfect mood for Tuesday’s Champions League match with Atlético Madrid. The North Bohemians did not lose two rounds in a row and scored points at Sparta in the league after a series of five defeats. They are 13th in the table.
The people of Prague entered the annual match in black jerseys with a large “S” on the chest and a white collar. After missing five competitive matches, the recovered Slovakian winger Haraslín returned to the home team’s starting line-up exactly one month later, and his Danish teammate Sörensen was also included in the starting eleven.
Before the match, the Leten club informed that the Ecuadorian defender or midfielder Preciado underwent knee surgery, due to which he will miss several months.
Less than 10 seconds after the kick-off, Haraslín got to the end, but he did not beat the goalkeeper Ludha. In the 14th minute, the Spartan Suchomel fired from behind the goal. In the 34th minute, Cobbaut, who will celebrate his 27th birthday on Sunday, left the game due to injury. The Belgian defender was replaced by Vitík. In the setting of the opening act, Pešek overshot from the turn.
The second half
Sörensen did not play in the second half, and was replaced by compatriot Ross. After changing sides, like before, Pešek finished off Olatunji, but only into Ludha’s arms.
Haraslín ended the wait for a goal in the 56th minute. The Slovakian representative guided the ball to the edge of the box and gave the Teplice goalkeeper no chance with an exhibition shot at the back post. With his fifth goal in the league season, he became the team’s top scorer.
The reigning champions held the lead for just five minutes. Bílek crossed from a standard position, Knapík ran onto the back post and leveled with his head.
The Teplice defender celebrated his first start in the league season in style, as he had not played since May due to a long injury. The home team briefly put the visitors under pressure, but captain Panák headed over from the edge of the penalty area. Letenský did not create a more significant opportunity.
Sparta won only two of the last 11 competitive duels. In the year of the top competition, she won at home in only one of the last five matches and scored only 11 of the total 27 points there. The North Bohemians have not lost in three of the last four games away from home in the league.
