There is something about the 2010 World Cup bound team in the Slovakia vs Costa Rica preview live stream match which will be played at the Tehelne Pole Stadium at 11:00 am ET and that is they know how to defend. Their most famous defender Martin Skrtel may just be returning from injury and has looked shaky with Liverpool sometimes last season but his qualities are very well suited for international football. Tough, uncompromising and with glimpses of brilliance going forward now that Napoli’s Marek Hamsik has matured into a very fine player.
Costa Rica have been one of the more consistent and stronger Central American teams for a long time. Just missing out on the 2010 World Cup finals after a play-off defeat to Uruguay, the Costa Ricans have put up some good performances in warmup friendlies – losing 2-1 to France and then beating Switzerland 1-0. Both matches showed what they are capable of and they will definitely put up another strong display against their third World Cup bound opponent.
Little action and fewer goals
We felt that the hosts will have the better chance of winning in the Slovakia vs Costa Rica preview live stream since it would also be an opportunity to give their fans something to cheer over before they head for South Africa. But given the condition of some of their players, they might not push that hard and try to do just enough. We do like what we see in the coach’s son Vladimir Weiss who is quite a useful player with pace and there is enough pedigree in that squad to make an impression in the tournament.
Costa Rica have also shown they are no pushovers in the last two matches we saw. Amongst the three teams they are facing including tonight’s, Slovakia is probably the most balanced – France have been awful for quite a while now. Both teams could shut each other out, or with the hosts just shading it in the end in what we feel could be a low scoring affair.
