2.35Tip and bets
Fakel has generally improved in the last month and increased its chances of salvation, today the hosts will clearly fight for all three points. However, the price of a mistake in a confrontation with a direct competitor is very high and the blue-whites are unlikely to open up without special need. Khimki are also unlikely to bare their rear, in the last three matches between the clubs more than two goals were not scored, it is unlikely to expect a goal extravaganza today.
We believe that the match will not be productive. Forecast - total under two goals . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 1.95
Bet on the outcome
Fakel is traditionally dangerous on its home field, and in general, the blue-whites have demonstrated over the last month that they are capable of much. However, today the risk will certainly be excluded – a defeat could result in a fall into the direct relegation zone. Khimki are extremely vulnerable in away matches, and a draw in Voronezh would be quite a decent result, the probability of such an outcome is very high.
