Sparta Prague vs Aris Limassol match preview
One of two opening day fixtures in Europa League Group C is set to play out at the epet ARENA on Thursday, September 21st.
The matchup in question will see Sparta Prague act as hosts, in a meeting with Aris Limassol.
Beginning with the former, Sparta Prague are in the midst of a predictably productive domestic campaign in Czechia to date.
All told, across eight league outings, the capital giants have racked up seven wins, to go along with a draw.
Not only that, but, owing to a 5-0 drubbing of Slovacko at the weekend, Brian Priske’s troops find themselves in possession of a hefty +19 goal difference.
On the continent, meanwhile, Sparta booked their spot in the group stages of the Europa League courtesy of a stellar comeback, against Croatian heavyweights Dinamo Zagreb.

Safe to say, then, that upcoming opponents Aris Limassol will have their work very much cut out for them on Thursday.
Aris are too fresh off a fine start to the term in Cyprus, which has seen them establish early pace-setter status courtesy of 10 points from an available 12.
Their first dropped points of the campaign did come this past weekend, though, when Leo Bengtsson’s finish on the hour mark culminated in a 1-1 home stalemate with Pafos.
But, as evidenced by their efforts in Europe already this season, Aris should not be underestimated by any means.
After narrowly missing out on a spot in the Champions League qualification playoffs, Aleksey Shpilevsky’s men racked up seven goals over two legs against Slovakian giants Slovan Bratislava, to ensure their spot in the 2023/24 Europa League.
And yet, despite such impressive endeavours, we at 101 are backing hosts Sparta Prague, when all is said and done, to emerge on the right side of the result at the epet ARENA later this evening.
