Czech Republic will host Moldova at the Andruv Stadion on Monday in the final round of the 2024 European Championship Qualifiers.
The home side have had mixed results in the European qualifiers so far but can secure an eighth consecutive appearance in the European Championship this week. They played out a 1-1 draw against Poland on Friday with team captain Tomas Soucek scoring a second-half leveler to keep Czechia's qualification hopes alive.
Czech Republic sit second in their group with 12 points from seven games and will guarantee automatic qualification should they avoid defeat on Monday.
Moldova have steadily picked up points during the qualifiers and remain perhaps surprisingly in contention for advancement to the final tournament in Germany next year. They played out a 1-1 draw against group leaders Albania falling behind midway through the first-half before Vladyslav Babohlo scored a late equalizer to rescue an important point for Tricolorii.
The visitors sit fourth in Group E with 10 points picked so far and must win next week to secure their first-ever European Championship appearance.
