Who is favorites to win?

Btw polish player Dominik Pas just signed with Dukla. Kind of suprising since the polish league is stronger than Slovakian league.

Admittedly, I haven't kept up with the Polish league for a few years but I don't think the Slovakian league has fallen off that much yet.

Eye of Ra just has a weird fetish to underestimate the Slovak league to an extreme degree for whatever reason, according to him it's like the worst pro league in Europe. I don't know his reasons but suffice to say he is way, way off.

It also has to be noted Pas didn't sign with Michalovce (as there are two Duklas in the league), he just got a try-out. This speaks volumes by itself, he is happy to take a try-out from the Slovak team to progress his career instead of marinating himself in the league where he became a top-6 forward at age 17.

And same applies to Crinon. It's a try-out.

Swede-slovak Gilbert Gabor to Banska. Always liked him. Very physical player.
