The team dropped to 11th place in the standings and has nine points, three points behind the top 4.

Baltika

Current form
In the last round, Baltika played at home against KAMAZ and won their second victory in the First League. The match was a two-edged struggle, where the Kaliningraders were able to break the resistance of the Naberezhnye Chelny club only in the 87th minute of the match (1:0). In the previous game, the Baltikas were unable to beat Rotor (0:2), suffering their first defeat of the season. After six rounds, the club occupies a modest eighth place in the tournament table with 10 points to their credit, lagging behind the play-off zone by two points, and behind the leader Arsenal by five. The club's management is looking for a replacement for the head coach, since they are not satisfied with the quality of the game, but Alexander Grishchenko prepared the team for today's match.

Don't expect many goals from this match. The opponents have problems with scoring. Not once in seven games this season have Baltika scored more than two goals, and Yenisey had five such matches. The opponents will be extremely cautious, and the clubs don't want to lose points. Therefore, the choice in favor of a low total suggests itself in the confrontation.
Betting Tip - total under 2.5 goals with odds of 1.62

The Krasnoyarsk team is playing at their home stadium, and we will give preference to a draw. Incidentally, the Baltiysk team has finished four matches since the start of the season with a draw, and the last face-to-face meeting on the Yenisei field ended with a score of 1:1. We believe that the opponents have no right to make a mistake and a draw will suit everyone without exception.

The opponents exchanged goals in three out of five head-to-head matches, and in the last two out of three away games of Baltika, goals were exchanged. We can assume that both teams will score in today's confrontation.
