Prague – According to the bookmakers, the Pardubice hockey players are the main favorites to win the extra league title in the coming season, which will start on Thursday with a pre-game in Pilsen, where Třinec will play. It is the Steelers who follow with a small distance, together with Sparta. Kladno, on the other hand, is the biggest outsider.

The same trio was favored a year ago. Třinec finally triumphed for the fourth time in a row and now has a chance to repeat the feat of Vsetín, who managed to win the title five times in a row between 1995 and 1999. Although Pardubice won the regular season last time, they are still waiting for the next title, which would follow the one from 2012. New coach Václav Varaďa has helped Dynamo to the top. Sparta, which has been fighting for the title in vain even since 2007, also has a new coach (Pavlo Gross).
According to the bookmakers' odds, Kladno should be the last with playing owner Jaromír Jágr. Bookmakers assigned the Knights the role of outsiders already last year before the start of the 2022/23 season, and their assumptions were fulfilled. The Central Bohemians had to defend belonging to the elite in the tie against Zlín, which they managed with ease.
