Torpedo Moscow - Rubin: betting tip for a friendly match
A friendly match in preparation for the continuation of the RPL on January 31 will be held by Torpedo Moscow and Kazan Rubin. The Moscow team is presented as a clear underdog. Will the club manage to avoid losing in the upcoming match? You will find the answer and trending bets in our betting tip
Command Analysis
Torpedo Moscow
Russian FederationCurrent form
Torpedo decided to strengthen the midfield, because in the transfer window it acquires only midfielders. Oleg Kononov has acquired such new players as Guzman, bought from Colombian Deportes, Alisson from Brazilian Vila Nova. The Muscovites also acquired Yushin from Rodina and Khosonov from Khimki. It will be interesting to observe how the Muscovites' game will change with these players.
On January 25, Torpedo played its first friendly match. The opponents were Lokomotiv Plovdiv, to whom the Muscovites lost with a score of 0:2. The upcoming opponent is no weaker than the previous vis-à-vis, which is why bookmakers do not believe that the nominal hosts will be able to count on a victory, or at least a draw.
Disqualifications and injuries
Shamkin will not appear on the field due to injury.
Interesting trends for betting
- Torpedo has lost only one of its last nine matches
- In seven of the last eight meetings, Muscovites have scored
Estimated line-up: Baburin - Shevchenko, Borodin, Baitukov, Roganovich - Netfullin, Kostin - Chervyakov, Guzman, Alykulov - Chupaev.
Rubin Kazan
Russian FederationCurrent form
Rubin has not yet shown any activity on the transfer market and is playing with the same squad that played in the first round. Like their upcoming opponent, Kazan played one friendly match in 2025 and, unlike the Muscovites, they were able to win against Macedonian Struga with a score of 1:0. The nominal guests have been playing well against Torpedo recently, as they have not lost to the Muscovites in their eight previous face-to-face matches. That is why bookmakers have such faith in Rashid Rakhimov charges, making them the clear favorites in the upcoming match.
Disqualifications and injuries
Yukic will not be able to help his team due to injury.
Interesting trends for betting
- Rubin has won his last two fights
- Kazan failed to score in only one of their last six matches
Estimated line-up: Staver - Kabutov, Teslenko, Gritsenko, Nizhegorodov, Bezrukov - Ivanov, Khodja, Ivu, Chumich - Mukba.

2.65Tip and bets
Torpedo has quite a few new players, and the head coach himself says outright that the team is currently just getting used to each other, thus making it clear that we shouldn't get too hung up on the club results. Rubin doesn't have such problems, because all the players have been playing with each other for a long time, so we agree with the bookmakers who believe that Kazan will get their second victory in friendly games.
Our prediction is Rubin victory with odds of 1.70
Bet on total
The teams play very effectively against each other. In the seven previous face-to-face matches, there were no zeros on the scoreboard after the final whistle. It is unlikely that the opponents will focus on defensive actions in the friendly match. We will bet on both teams to score in the upcoming match.
Our prediction is both teams to score with odds of 1.60
Bet on corners
If the match follows the scenario we described above, the footballers will please with an abundant number of corner flag passes. We will make another bet on the over total for this indicator.
Our prediction is total over 9.5 corners for 1.77
