I can not find information on the bus, but would not be surprised if there turns out to be one.
Here is a link for the Eurolines bus site in Czech republic: https://www.elines.cz/cz/{966FC03A-197B-4D47-9624-B0038ABDE1D5}
But I know there are more companies running buses in that part of the world.
This German train planner gives several connections, at least one day and one overnight travel:
If you are in Moscow, walk in a travel agency and ask there. If you do not speak Russian, just write down the essentials, like dates, names of the towns and draw a bus or a train.
As I do not speak Czech nor Russian, I did not try to find the local websites, but they may exist and have an English version too.

There is a direct train and it takes about 30 hours. Also, there are many flights by Aeroflot and Czech Airways which may be cheaper than the train. One point: the train goes through Belorus and you may need a transit visa. You should contact the embassy to find out.
