1.80Tip and bets
Taking into account the current form of the teams, Vitebsk has a higher chance of winning. The visiting team demonstrates a stable game and has not lost in three games in a row, but Naftan looks unconvincing and has won only one victory in the last 10 rounds. The guests in the first round turned out to be stronger than their opponent, and we believe that the "northerners" will emerge victorious, surpassing their opponent in class.
Prediction: Vitebsk win with odds of 2.30
Betting on Team Goals
The hosts, playing on their home field, will try to score, but the visitors will not stand aside, but intend to attack a lot. In three of the last five games of Naftan, the exchange of goals took place, and you can bet on both clubs to score.
Prediction: Both teams to score with odds of 1.77
Bet on total
It is obvious that Vitebsk will play first number - the guests need to score three points and not let the catchers get closer. At the same time, the "northerners" have finished the last two matches in a row with a total over, and the hosts three out of five. We believe that today the opponents will be able to arrange a goal extravaganza in the confrontation.
Forecast - total over 2.5 goals with odds of 1.95
