Vitoria Guimaraes vs Mlada Boleslav Prediction

Vitoria Guimaraes have made a lightning start to their campaign this term and are among the favorites to go all the way in this tournament. Rui Borges' side started the season with a seven-game winning run and this form was founded on a sturdy defense that kept a clean sheet in all seven victories. However, things have been more open in recent weeks, with Borges complaining of his side's fixture congestion.

Boleslav, for their part, have won their last two games, having not won any of the preceding eight (five draws). Unsurprisingly, they are the heavy underdogs in this game.

Barring an unlikely upset, there should only be one winner here. We are backing the home side to claim a comfortable victory and clean sheet.
