Sparta Prague - Lillestroem

Adam Karabec orchestrates the midfield for Sparta Prague as they prepare to host Lillestroem on 15 October 2026 for this Europa League matchday 2 encounter. The Czech side enters the contest with momentum, having secured a comfortable 2-0 victory over Pardubice in their most recent league outing. Their European form has also been clinical, highlighted by a dominant 4-1 win against Ararat Armenia in September. With Josimar Alcocer and Jonatan Braut Brunes expected to lead the attack, Sparta Prague will look to leverage their recent domestic stability to control the tempo at epet Arena.

Lillestroem arrives in Prague following a hard-fought 2-2 draw against Molde, aiming to recover from a difficult start to their Europa League campaign after a narrow loss to Torreense. With Fredrik Gulbrandsen and Felix Va leading the line, the visitors must tighten their defensive structure to contain a potent home attack. The match promises a tactical battle as Lillestroem seeks to disrupt Sparta's rhythm and secure a vital result on the road.
