Goals: 24. Olayinka - 90. Žídek
Slavia drew 1-1 in Opava despite the hosts being down to ten men. Peter Olayinka gave Slavia lead, Žídek equalised in added time.
Slavia could not count on several players of usual starting line-up when Traoré, Hovorka, Bořil and Hromada could not start because of health problems. On top of this, after the warm-up goalkeeper Ondřej Kolář had to be replaced by Přemysl Kovář after minor back injury.

But Opava had their chances too. At minute 68 Šulc sent perfect pass to Dědič who appeared in great chance, but Slavia centre-back Ondřej Kúdela blocked is shot with perfect defensive move. On the other side Milan Škoda could add second but Šrom made another good save against his lobbed ball.
