Gibraltar has gone seven consecutive matches without a loss, but they were mainly against teams of their level. On Saturday, they took the lead, but expectedly lost 1-3 as guests to Montenegro. This was another loss in the World Cup qualifiers. Since becoming a member of FIFA, they have played a total of 21 matches in World Cup qualifiers, losing each one.
Czech Republic has not lost in six consecutive matches (4 wins and 2 draws). On Saturday, they may have underestimated the Faroe Islands at home. They allowed an equalizer for 1-1 at the end of the match, but quickly returned with a goal for the final score of 2-1 after Patrick Schick's second goal in the match. In 12 of the last 14 matches of Czech Republic, there have been goals in both nets.
Prediction: Czech Republic to win with a clean sheet, Czech Republic and over 2.5 goalsCzech Republic hasn't kept many clean sheets lately, but I expect them to achieve one here. Despite everything, Gibraltar remains far below the level of the Czech team and is unlikely to pose much of a challenge.
