Motivation and fans' support will probably bring the three points to the Marines.

Both teams want to get points, so we will probably see a tight contest, opponents will probably mostly fight for the ball in the middle of the pitch, so we are not expecting many goal opportunities here.
Our second bet is on total under 2,5 goals
