Khimki - SKA Khabarovsk: betting tip for a friendly match
On January 31, Khimki will play several friendly matches. In one of the matches, the club opponent will be Khabarovsk SKA. Will there be a winner in this confrontation, or will the clubs part ways in peace? You will find the answer to this question and trending bets in our betting tip
Command Analysis
Khimki
Russian FederationCurrent form
After the first round of the RPL, Khimki are in the play-off zone. In principle, this is not surprising, because last season the team played in the Russian First League, and it is rare to see a club that, having risen to the Top Division, immediately settles firmly at least in the center of the national championship.
On January 24, the team played its first friendly match against Serbian Javor Ivanjica and won that match with the expected ease (5:1). The upcoming opponent is clearly not much higher in playing class than the previous opponent, so the Moscow Region club is again presented as a huge favorite, but the whole point is that the team will play this match a few hours after the match with Novorossiysk Chernomorets, and it is unclear how much strength the football players will have for the second game in a row.
Disqualifications and injuries
The team has no problems with recruiting players ahead of this friendly match.
Interesting trends for betting
- Khimki have scored in eight previous matches
- Khimki have conceded in their last nine games
Estimated line-up: Kokarev - Andzhelkovich, Filin, Luna - Terekhov, Kaplenko, Corredera, Abdullahi - Bakayev, Rudenko, Sadygov.
SKA-Khabarovsk
Russian FederationCurrent form
SKA Khabarovsk is plowing through the expanses of the Russian First League and is a solid mid-table team, sitting in eighth place in the standings. After the first round, the gap to the playoff zone is eight points. The handicap is not small, but if the Khabarovsk team plays like they have recently: unbeaten for five games in a row, three wins and two draws, then there is no doubt that it will not be difficult to win back such a handicap. Last year, the teams also played a friendly match, and then the Khabarovsk team lost with a big score of 1:4. The red-blues have not improved much in their play at the moment, so it is not surprising that bookmakers put the club as a clear underdog.
Disqualifications and injuries
At the moment, all players are in action.
Interesting trends for betting
- SKA Khabarovsk has not lost in five matches in a row
- Khabarovsk scored in four of the last five matches
Estimated line-up: Imamov - Bykov, Martinez, Aliyev, Gadzhimuradov - Gonkadze, Zhuravlen, Pershin - Pokidyshev, Poyarkov, Simonyan.

1.45Tip and bets
Despite the fact that Khimki will play their second match of the day, and the second game will be against Khabarovsk SKA, we are inclined to believe that the Moscow Region club will be able to confidently win the match. In the match with Novorossiysk Chernomorets, the nominal hosts will play and will be able to achieve the desired result for themselves - a confident victory. Well, SKA Khabarovsk will suffer a defeat and interrupt its unbeaten streak.
Our betting tip is Asian handicap (-1.5) on Khimki with odds of 2.15
Bet on total
In a friendly match, it would be stupid for teams to practice placing a bus near their goal. We are inclined to believe that the game will be played with head-on sails and, as in the previous face-to-face game, there will be no zeros on the scoreboard.
Second prediction - both will score with odds of 1.50
Bet on corners
SKA Khabarovsk averages five corner kicks per match, while Khimki averages 4.1. Since we expect an open game, it makes sense to bet on the fact that there will be quite a few corner kicks as well. Let make another bet on this event.
Our prediction is total over 9.5 corners for 1.88
