BRNO, Czech Republic (Interstat) — A place in the next round of the Czech Cup of Cup is on the line Sunday when Tat Brno Bohunice hosts Blansko at Stadion Tatran Brno Bohunice.

The knockout stage fixture pits a confident home side against visitors seeking to rebound from a recent heavy defeat.

Tat Brno Bohunice enters the match in strong form, having won its last three competitive fixtures. Most recently, it secured a 1-0 home victory over Humpolec on Sept. 21. That result followed a 1-0 road win at Start Brno on Aug. 13 and a 4-2 home triumph over Velke Mezirici on July 25. The team has shown both defensive solidity and scoring capability in its run.

Blansko, meanwhile, is looking to recover from a disappointing 3-0 home loss to Vrchovina, also on Sept. 21. That result will likely see manager Jan Kovar demand a more resilient performance from his squad on the road.

Despite the contrasting recent outcomes, statistical projections suggest a tightly contested match. The Interstat game simulator predicts a 1-1 draw after regulation. However, the same outlet’s ELO rating system gives Tat Brno Bohunice a 59.70 percent probability of advancing, indicating a slight favorite role for the hosts.

The Cup of Cup competition, a domestic cup tournament in the Czech football system, offers both clubs a chance for silverware and a potential European qualification path. The pressure of a single-elimination format adds significance to every play.

For Tat Brno Bohunice, maintaining its defensive discipline while capitalizing on home advantage will be key. Blansko’s primary task will be shoring up its back line to avoid an early deficit.

Kickoff is scheduled for 5 p.m. local time on Sunday, Dec. 7, 2025. The winner will advance to the next round of the tournament.
