Command Analysis

FC Rostov

Current form
Rostov is playing well at these training camps. During the five matches played, Valery Karpin's team won three times and lost twice. I am pleased with the team's performance. In the matches he won, he managed to score at least three goals. This suggests that the coach instills in his players an open style of play, which yields good results.
In the last friendly meeting, there was a game with Dynamo Moscow. Many were waiting for an equal game, and the Rostov team acted as an underdog, but in the end they defeated the Moscow club with a score of 4:0. The upcoming opponent is no higher than the playing class of the previous opponent, so there is a great chance to win another victory.
Disqualifications and injuries
El-Askalani is injured.
Interesting betting trends
- Rostov has scored in nine of the last ten matches.
- In two of the last three meetings, the Rostov team missed
Approximate line—up: Odoevsky — Vakhania, Melekhin, Osipenko, Poyarkov — Komarov, Shantali, Shchetinin - Ronaldo, Komlichenko, Mokhebi.

Akron Togliatti

Current form
Akron had a great first round in the RPL. Many thought that Tolyatti residents would fight to keep their registration in the league, but instead they firmly settled in the middle of the standings, a line below the upcoming opponent. Zaur Tedeev has found an approach to his players and finds words that allow players to demonstrate a high level of organization.
The Tolyatti team did not start the friendly matches in the best way. First, they drew with Rodina (2:2), then lost to Chengdu (1:3). After that, the team got together and produced two great results, first beating Urartu (2:0), and then Zhejiang (1:0). We had to play with the upcoming opponent in the first round, and then we managed to win with a score of 2:0. Despite this, the bookmakers do not really believe in the nominal guests, because they expose them as an underdog.
Disqualifications and injuries
Bakayev will not participate in the match due to injury.
Interesting betting trends
- Akron has won the last two games
- In the last two games, the nominal guests did not miss
The approximate line-up: Vasyutin – Pestryakov, Escoval, Bokoev, Fernandez – Kuzmin, Djurasovich – Dmitriev, Djakovac, Khubulov – Dzyuba.

1.68Tip and bets
In the first round of this season, Rostov suffered an insulting defeat from the upcoming opponent with a score of 0:2. Both goals were conceded in the first half, and then the Rostov team failed to get into a rut. In the last three months, the nominal hosts have significantly improved their game and become stronger. Akron did not play with such a powerful team as the upcoming opponent at the training camp, and, as we believe, the Tolyatti team will not be able to repeat the September success of last year and will fail.
Our forecast is that Rostov will win with a coefficient of 1.77
Bet on the total
Both teams practice attacking actions in friendly matches. Rostov could not score in only one of the five friendly matches played, and Akron hit the opponent's goal in all the matches played. Based on this, we will bet that there will be no zeros on the scoreboard after the final whistle.
Our forecast is that both will score with a coefficient of 1.60
Betting on corners
If the game goes at the same pace as the teams have played in previous friendly games, then you will be lucky to see a decent number of serves from the corner flag. We will place another bet on the riding total for this indicator.
Our forecast is a total of more than 8.5 corners with a coefficient of 1.70
