The opponents' defense cannot be considered impenetrable at the moment. The Southerners have conceded seven goals in the last five games, and the Makhachkala team has conceded five. Sochi has exchanged goals with its opponents in four of the past five matches in all tournaments, and Dynamo has done so in three. We can assume that both teams will score in today match.
Prediction: both teams will score with odds of 2.10
Bet on the outcome
Dynamo is currently a more powerful team, but Sochi should not be discounted. The hosts have not yet met a representative above the second league in the Cup, but they can impose a tough fight on an opponent from the elite and will act quite cautiously. The home team plays on its home field and today will fight hard to get into the next round of the competition. We believe that the southerners will use their experience and win the final victory.
Forecast: Sochi wins the match with odds of 1.70
Bet on total
Sochi plays quite well and will prefer to play first number at home, but the guests will act defensively on counterattacks. The total under was recorded in two of the southerners' three matches, which we expect today as well.
