Latest information on the Czech Republic vs Faroe Islands matchup.
The Czech Republic are waiting to see if Vladimir Coufal will recover from his hamstring injury in time for this weekend's match. The West Ham right-back has missed the last five club games, but has still been called up to the national team. If Coufal is not fit enough to play, David Doudera could be tasked with filling in at right-back, alongside Tomas Holes, Ladislav Krejci and Matej Jurasek in a four-man defense.
Tomas Soucek – also on West Ham's books – is likely to wear the captain's armband in midfield, supported by Pavel Sulc and Lukas Cerv. Up front, Patrik Schick – who has scored 20 goals in 42 appearances for the national team – is almost certain to lead the attack, and could be supported by Vaclav Cerny and either Vasil Kusej or Lukas Provod.
On the Faroe Islands side, coach Hakan Klakstein will most likely continue to use a three-centre-back formation as in his first two matches as manager. Odmar Faero, Gunnar Vatnhamar, and Andrias Edmundsson could occupy the central defensive positions, while Jann Benjaminsen and Viljormur Davidsen would take up the two wing-back roles.
The experienced midfield duo of Hallur Hansson and Brandur Hendriksson will shoulder the responsibility, while the attacking trio – Meinhard Olsen, Petur Knudsen, and Arni Frederiksberg – are expected to make a difference, even though all three have only scored a combined total of three goals for the national team.

Latest football match prediction: Czech Republic vs Faroe Islands
After a major disappointment in the Euro 2024 group stage – finishing last with just one point from three matches – the Czech Republic national team made an impressive comeback by gaining promotion to League A of the UEFA Nations League late last year.
Under the guidance of coach Ivan Hasek, the team has accumulated 11 points from 6 matches (3 wins, 2 draws, 1 loss) to top Group B1, ahead of Ukraine, Albania, and Georgia. In their most recent match in mid-November, they defeated Georgia 2-1 at home.

Czechia boasts an impressive home record: only one loss in their last 18 matches across all competitions (13 wins, 4 draws), including seven consecutive wins and 15 goals scored. Ranked 42nd in the FIFA rankings, they have every reason to believe in a victory this weekend, especially considering they have won all seven previous encounters against the Faroe Islands, scoring at least two goals in each match and never conceding.
Hasek and his players aim for a smooth start to their 2026 World Cup qualifying campaign – a tournament they are striving to return to after their last appearance in 2006.
On the other side of the battlefield, the Faroe Islands enter 2024 after a run of 10 winless matches the previous year. They finished last in the Baltic Cup in June and only avoided relegation from League C of the Nations League at the end of the year thanks to a victory against Armenia in the final matchday.
After Hakan Ericson left the national team after five years as coach, Eydun Klakstein – the former U17 and U21 coach – was appointed as head coach. Under his leadership, the team won 1-0 away against Armenia in November.
The Faroe Islands are currently ranked 137th in the world by FIFA and are still struggling with their attack, having scored two or more goals in only one of their last nine matches (1 win, 3 draws, 5 losses). Notably, eight of those opponents were ranked lower than Czechia.
Traveling to Hradec Kralove, the visiting team also cannot inspire much confidence, having failed to win in their last 9 World Cup qualifying matches away from home, and having only won 3 of their last 29 away matches in all competitions over the past 5 years.
