Prostějov vs Sigma Olomouc - Friendlies Clubs

A fascinating Friendlies Clubs chapter awaits on July 4, 2026 when Prostějov take on Sigma Olomouc at the home ground — two sides with plenty to play for and everything to prove. The left-back was taken off in the final minutes against Everton with cramp, and was not risked for the Champions League clash vs Sabah on Thursday.

Both Prostějov and Sigma Olomouc will be eager to build momentum when they meet in Friendlies Clubs. The hosts will be looking to find their rhythm and put a run of results together. Sigma Olomouc will travel with intent, knowing that a positive result here could kick-start their campaign. Skinner had another year to run on his contract but has decided to move on a month out from United beginning their Women’s Super League season at London City Lionesses on September 4.

Set-piece efficiency could prove the difference on the night. Both Prostějov and Sigma Olomouc have invested time in dead-ball situations this season, and a single corner or free-kick may settle it. After the loss, a lot of questions began to be raised about their different approach to preparing for the game.

In fixtures as finely poised as this one, it often comes down to who holds their nerve in the big moments — and both camps have players who relish that responsibility. Discipline at the back and sharpness in front of goal will likely tilt the balance one way or the other. But with United in need of a new top central midfielder, an Express Sport poll of United supporters have voted for Tchouameni to be their next signing, with 32% respondents wanting the Frenchman to join.

Predictions are tricky when the sides are this evenly matched, and small margins — a moment of quality, a slice of luck — could decide it either way. Neither side holds a clear edge, and a 1-1 draw would be a fitting reflection of the balance between them. The result at the home ground could resonate well beyond matchday in the Friendlies Clubs picture. And Fonseca does not place too much weight on the decision of Roberto Martinez to omit him from the World Cup squad in favour of his Benfica team-mate Tomas Araujo.
