From 2013 onwards, the Octavia is fitted with this petrol engine. As far as I know, all these engines have a toothed belt, regardless of HP. https://www.motorreviewer.com/engine.php?engine_id=116

It's a 140 HP. engine type EA211.

my O3 1.4 tsi has done 230.000 km and is from May 2014. My local dealer in Holland advised replacement last year. "if it was my car" he said (in Dutch), "I wouldn't take the risk". Inspection of the belt he would not do, because it might look fine, but still be bad. First he said it was chain driven. Shows the level of in depth knowledge. It is still running on it's first belt. Today I inquired at the dealer in Belgium and he advised against replacement.
