Arsenal vs. Alania: First League Match Prediction

Should we expect goals from them today, or will Arsenal not let the opponent score? All the answers in our expert's betting tip

Command Analysis

Arsenal Tula

Current form
In the last round, Arsenal managed to get a draw at home and avoid defeat in the game against Neftekhimik. The first half was a failure, and nothing worked out in the attack, while the opponent created three scoring chances and scored. The second half of the match brought the Tula team to its senses. The team made many attacks, but mostly shot from afar. Nevertheless, thanks to luck, they managed to score one goal - in the 84th minute, when the ball flew between the legs of three defenders at once and landed in the corner.
This is the first draw for the Tula team, as they had previously scored 12 points, winning all four rounds at the start. First, they won the match against Chornomorets and KAMAZ, then they took victory from Rotor away (1:0), and two rounds earlier they beat Yenisei (2:1), where, by the way, they scored again at the end.
The "gunsmiths" are the sole leaders, have a devil's dozen points in their piggy bank and are ahead of the second "Ural" by three points.
Interesting trends for betting
- Arsenal have scored in every game they have played since the start of the season, but 90% of their goals have come in the second half.
- On average, the Gunners have earned more than two yellow cards per match since the start of the season.
Estimated line-up : Levashov, Berdnikov, Bolshakov, Zhilkin, Kaynov, Lipovoy, Minaev, Nduka, Razdorskikh, Khabibov, Tsaraev.

FC Alania Vladikavkaz

Current form
In the last round, Alania lost to Yenisey at home (0:1). There were few chances, except in the first half, although those were not too dangerous. What danger can we talk about when only one shot was made on the Krasnoyarsk goal. The only thing that can be praised is the team's defense. The opponent did not open it up positionally, and the missed goal came after a corner kick and a very fast counterattack by the guests. A well-deserved victory for the opponent, and according to statistics, the "Barsy" were generally half-dead. It's funny, but the Vladikavkaz team only takes points on the road, where they score. At home, we see 0:0 with Ufa, 0:1 with Rodina, and now a defeat to the "lions". In contrast, Tyumen (1:0) and SKA (3:0) won away.
As a result, two victories and the same number of defeats with one draw, which allowed to earn seven points and take the eighth place in the tournament table. The gap from the TOP-4 is only one point, and it is quite easy to make up for it, but it is necessary to show stable results.
Interesting trends for betting
- In all away matches this season, the club from Vladikavkaz scored.
- In the last four head-to-head matches, Alania scored at least one goal against their opponents, and there were eight in total.
Estimated lineup : Soldatenko, Bagayev, Butayev, Gagloyev, Dolgov, Makarov, Moskalenchik, Pliev, Tatayev, Tsallagov, Chochiev
