Command Analysis

Nizhny Novgorod

Nizhny Novgorod had a successful start in the Premier League. Alexander Kerzhakov's team defeated Sochi in the first round (1:0). They snatched a draw in Yekaterinburg (1:1), but the biggest surprise was their away victory over Spartak in the third round (2:1). But inevitably Nizhny had to lose, and that happened in the last round against Ufa (1:2).

FC Rostov

Rostov leave the opposite impression: a lot was expected from Yuri Semin's team, but their start was poor. Right now Rostov are on the second last line in the standings. In the first two rounds, Rostov took on such powerful opponents as Dynamo (0:2) and Zenit (2:4), but even against much weaker Khimki Rostov could only score one point (1:1). In the last round, Rostov lost at home to CSKA (1:3).

Tip and bets
Rostov have not won a single game this season, but Yuri Semin won't let them sink. Nizhny Novgorod have a class disadvantage and they are less experienced. Rostov should score their first victory.
We believe that the guests have a better chance of winning. Our prediction - Asian handicap (0) to Rostov.
Nizhny Novgorod have scored in all Premier League games so far, and we don't think that Rostov's defense can stop them. But Nizhny Novgorod also regularly concede, and Rostov will use that to their advantage.
Our second bet - both to score.
