Command Analysis

Krylya Sovetov Samara

Current form
Krylia Sovetov have fallen into a deep crisis. The team has not demonstrated the game that fans have become accustomed to over the past two seasons for a long time. Krylia Sovetov have lost four matches in a row, if you count the crushing defeat to Dynamo Moscow (3:6) in a meaningless cup match. The decline of the Samara team continued in the championship - Igor Osinkin team lost to Krasnodar (1:2), Akron (0:2) and CSKA Moscow (1:2). If the defeats to Krasnodar and Muscovites were quite expected, and the hosts did not look so bad in these matches, then the defeat in the regional derby to Tolyatti raised legitimate questions from the fans of the "green-white-blues".
Samara needs to do something about its problems in defense. The team constantly misses absolutely unnecessary goals. Just look at the cup match with Dynamo, where Samara missed six goals at once.
Disqualifications and injuries
The hosts cannot count on Amar Rakhmanovic, Maksim Vityugov and Denis Yakuba in the upcoming match - these players are currently in the infirmary.
Interesting trends for betting
- In each of the last five matches, Samara conceded at least two goals
- The hosts have suffered five defeats in their last six matches
Estimated lineup: Lomaev - Pechenin, Soldatenkov, Evgeniev, Rasskazov - Mendes, Bale - Yezhov, Oleynikov, Dmitriev - Sergeev

FK Akhmat

Current form
Akhmat completely failed to start the season and was the last of the RPL clubs to win their first game - they managed to do so only in the 13th round, where the Grozny team beat Rostov away (3:2). The team is more successful in the cup - they managed to get out of the group in second place, beating one of the season leaders, Krasnodar. Murad Musayev team was routed by the Chechen club with a score of 3:0.
Unfortunately, they have not been able to show such results in the championship yet. The team has already changed coaches, but it cannot be said that the return of Sergey Tashuev has helped much. After the victory over Rostov, Grozny lost to Paris NN (0:2) and Zenit (1:2) on their home field.
Disqualifications and injuries
Bernard Berisha, Miroslav Bogosavac, Evgeni Kharin and Lukas Lovat will miss the game due to injuries. Vladislav Kamilov was sent off in the last round and is now serving a disqualification.
Interesting trends for betting
- The team has won only one of its last seven matches.
- In the last three matches, they managed to score only one goal
Estimated lineup: Shelia - Gundry, Zhirov, Shvets - Todorovich, Silva, Camilo, Adamov - Sadulaev, Samorodov, Utkin
