Rodina vs. Neftekhimik: First League Match Forecast
On the first day of winter, Rodina will meet Neftekhimik from Nizhnekamsk in Moscow as part of the 21st round. The guests have not been showing a very convincing game since the beginning of the season and today they will try to earn at least a point, but the hosts will try to win. Will Rodina be able to defeat their opponent and what bets will play in the match? The answer is in our forecast
Command Analysis
Rodina
Russian FederationCurrent form
The Moscow team is playing worse this season than last season, and the change of head coach has not led to anything better. Let see if Vladimir Beschatnykh can improve the game of his players after the winter break. It is worth noting striker Alexander Yushin, who scored eight goals and is the tournament top scorer. The team has won only one victory in the last 10 matches, beating Chaika (2:0), but also took points from clubs in the top four. The club rolled out draws with Ural (0:0) and Torpedo Moscow (1:1). Muscovites have recently started to show attacking football, but so far this has not affected the team results. With such a game, it will be extremely difficult for the team to get into the playoffs, which the management was counting on before the start of the season. As a result, Rodina scored 24 points and took 11th place in the standings.
Disqualifications and injuries
Andreev is in the hospital.
Interesting trends for betting

Neftekhimik
Russian FederationCurrent form
The team failed to win again in the last game in the First League. Neftekhimik played away against Rotor and suffered its seventh defeat since the start of the championship. The Volgograd team beat the Nizhnekamsk team in all respects and deservedly won. The outcome of the meeting was decided by one goal scored in the middle of the first half. The game before, in the match with Tula Arsenal, a fighting draw was recorded (2:2). At the beginning of the season, the team showed a completely different game, was in the top three, but now the representative of Tatarstan looks like a solid mid-table team and is capable of providing due resistance to more experienced opponents. Kirill Novikov charges are on the 12th line in the tournament table, earned 23 points and have no tasks to get into the play-off matches and enter the Premier League.
Disqualifications and injuries
The injured Dzhamilov and Morozov will miss the game.
Interesting trends for betting
- Neftekhimik has earned an average of 1.6 yellow cards in its last five games
- On average, the club concedes one goal per match
Approximate lineup : Yanovich, Kakhidze, Tolstopyatov, Shorkin, Sitdikov, Rodin, Denisov, Emelyanov, Shiltsov, Magomedov, Aliev.

The home team has demonstrated good results since the start of the championship and intends to finish the first part of the season with a victory. Rodina has a slight advantage - the team won the last face-to-face game in Moscow and has a more balanced lineup. We can assume that these factors will become an additional incentive and Vladimir Beschatnykh charges will win.
Forecast: Rodina win with odds of 1.95

Betting on Team Goals
Rodina has looked more convincing than its opponents lately and in three of the last five games in the championship it has not exchanged goals with its opponents, which we expect to happen today.
