FC Rotor Volgograd

Current form
In the last match, Rotor played a tough away draw with Rodina (2:2), opening the scoring in the fifth minute of the match. At the beginning of the second half, the team was losing 1:2, but was able to equalize the score at the end of the game, and the outcome of this match was logical, since the game was equal. Earlier, Denis Boyarintsev's charges beat Baltika (2:0), playing with a man down. As a result, after seven rounds, the team was able to score 11 points and is in sixth place in the tournament table. The gap from the TOP-4 is only two points and it will be very easy to make up for them, but for this they need to win regularly.

1.55Tip and bets
We believe that Rotor will try to build on its success in the home match, since the club has only lost to the leader Arsenal on its home field since the start of the season. The Volgograders themselves are extremely motivated and are ready to fight any opponent. Let us recall that the hosts beat Baltika in the last home game, which we expect today.
Betting Tip: Rotor win with odds of 1.70
Bet on total
Don't expect many goals from this match. The hosts have problems with scoring and have never scored more than two goals in a home game this season. Therefore, in this match, the choice is in favor of a low total.
Betting Tip - total under 2.5 goals with odds of 1.55
Betting on Team Goals
Rotor did not exchange goals with their opponents in four out of five matches, and Chaika did not exchange goals in three games. We can assume that both teams will not score in today's matchup.
