Over the last five matches, Shinnik managed to score in only one match, and in four of the last five matches involving Rotor, no more than two goals were scored. Such indicators indicate that the team main focus is on defensive actions. This means that there is a high probability that there will not be many goals scored in the upcoming match.
Our prediction is total under 2.5 goals with odds of 1.72
Bet on the outcome
Shinnik have drawn three of their last four matches with their opponents. Rotor has failed to identify a winner in two of their last four encounters. Also, two of their last three face-to-face games ended in a 1:1 draw. In the first match of 2025, the opponents will clearly not be in their best form, so we will bet that no winner will be identified again.
Our prediction is a draw. This bet is offered for 3.30
Bet on corners
In face-to-face encounters, Shinnik performs better in flank attacks. This is confirmed by the fact that in the last game there were four more corners, and in the game before that - three more. We will place another bet on the fact that the Yaroslavl team will be able to win on corner flag deliveries.
Our prediction is that Shinnik will take more corners. This bet is offered for 1.85
