Command Analysis

Khimki

Current form
Khimki were approaching the start of the season as a potential candidate for relegation from the Premier League, although they managed to strengthen decently in the summer and, with such a selection of players, it was realistic to count on maintaining a residence permit in the elite. However, in the first half of the season, Frank Artiga's team was frankly disappointing, giving out only a few local bright matches – for the winter break, the red-blacks went to 13th place in the table. Khimki are only three points away from the direct relegation zone and there is a risk of making the situation worse today.
Disqualifications and injuries
The Moon is injured.
Interesting betting trends
- Khimki have scored only one victory in eight home matches this season.
- Khimki has not beaten Fakel in the last six matches, with a win and five draws.
Approximate line–up: Kokarev – Fernandez, Dzhikiya, Filin, Origno - Mejia, Corredera, Vera – Bakaev, Zabolotny, Rudenko.

Fakel

Current form
Fakel, as well as its current rival, approached the start of the season as a clear candidate for relegation from the Premier League, being inferior in terms of player selection to almost all competitors. The blue-whites failed the starting segment, and the first half of the season as a whole, but with the arrival of Dmitry Pyatibratov, they began to take points more often and got out of the direct relegation zone. At the moment, the Torch is in 14th place in the table with 14 points and is only one point away from the direct relegation zone - there is a risk of returning there already at the end of the round.

2.89Tip and bets
Khimki had an unsuccessful first part of the season, but in general, a serious failure was avoided and the situation is quite fixable. It is quite obvious that the red-blacks are the favorites of the match – the Torch is significantly inferior in the selection of players, and in the game in the first half of the season, the blue-whites were frankly not impressive in the game. It makes sense to take a chance and give preference to the hosts today, as Fakel is traditionally vulnerable in away matches and Khimki can beat a direct competitor at home.
We believe that the guests have no chance. The betting tip is a victory for Khimki. Such a bet is offered with a coefficient of 2.15
Bet on the total
Fakel will definitely play in his traditional style today – as reliably as possible in defense, without unnecessary risk. Khimki will have to work hard to open such a saturated defense and score, despite a very modest selection of players, the blue and white are reliable in defense, as for one of the obvious contenders for relegation. Khimki, in turn, are also unlikely to take a small risk right away, in such a duel it is unlikely to count on goals in large numbers.
The bet is a total of less than 2.5 goals. This bet is offered for 1.65
Betting on corners
Khimki will certainly strive to play number one at home, they will spend a lot of time attacking and should win from corners without any problems.
The bet is a victory for Khimki on the corners. This bet is offered for 1.99
