Command Analysis

Spartak Moscow

Russian Federation

Spartak started the season very poorly - Rui Vitoria's men have only two wins after five rounds. After a modest and unconvincing victory over Ural (1:0) in the fourth round, the Red-whites stumbled over Arsenal Tula in the previous match. Spartak opened the scoring in Tula, but couldn't secure the advantage. Arsenal leveled the score and the game was tied (1:1). Spartak are only on the eighth line in the table.

PFC Sochi

Russian Federation

Sochi, unlike their opponent, had no serious problems at the start of the Premier League season. Vladimir Fedotov's men come to Otkrytiye Arena after winning three out of four previous matches. However, in the last round, Sochi suffered a defeat from Krylya Sovetov in Samara. They couldn't get past Krylia's defense but made their own defensive mistake led to a conceded goal (0:1).

Tip and bets

1.83Spartak to win

Lately, Spartak have looked unconvincing. The psychological pressure on the team is growing: if the Red-whites can't fix their mistakes before the start of the European competition, the whole season can be completely ruined. Sochi have their own problems in defense as the last away games have shown, and Spartak will try to use that to their advantage.

We believe that the hosts have enough motivation to defeat the leopard. Our prediction - Spartak to win.

1.82Both to score

Sochi have played five away matches across all tournaments, and the Leopards have conceded in each of them. They won't be able to keep a clean sheet against Spartak, who have lots of motivation for this game. But Sochi have a solid attack and will probably make use of their chances, too.

Our second bet - both to score.
