The team did a lot of work in the off-season, rotated its roster and intends to fight for the highest places.

Bet on total

In this pair, the game is planned under the dictation of the hosts with many dangerous attacks. The opponents are good at realizing scoring opportunities and there is a fierce struggle in the games against each other. In the past three face-to-face matches out of five opponents, the total was more than 4.5 goals, and we believe that the goal extravaganza will take place in the match.

Forecast - total over 4.5 goals with odds of 1.85

Bet on individual total

The visitors have a great defensive line, but in the past five matches the club has managed to let in 11 goals. We can assume that the hosts, who have scored only nine goals in the same number of games, will be able to hit the opponent goal more than twice.

Forecast - SKA-Neva individual total over 2.5 goals for 1.90
