Men’s last season’s finalists played an impressive regular season. Boleslav won the regular season with 68 points but only one point behind them are the reigning champions Chodov. Vitkovice, who just won the cup final against Boleslav in January, are third with 64 points but the rest are far behind.
Usti had an unfortunate season as they only got 15 points and will be facing the play-outs with other bottom four teams. The top eight teams will play in the play-offs and the season ends for Ostrava and Ceska Lipa who came 9th and 10th.
Play-Off pairs:
Boleslav – Pardubice
Chodov – Otrokovice

In the Czech league the matches are usually played on the weekend and play-offs are no exception. The first two rounds will be played on Saturday and Sunday. A team needs four victories to make it to the next round.
