Tips of the day

Premier LeagueWon1:1

RubinFC Orenburg

Why this pick: I expect both teams to score. In 4 of the 6 head-to-head meetings in the championship, both teams scored. Rubin Kazan have conceded many goals in their last three games. Orenburg create chances averaging 0.8 xG despite the tough matches. I think the teams will both score today.

EliteserienWon2:1

Kristiansund BKMolde

Why this pick: The arguments in favor of both teams scoring look quite convincing. I don't see who in this match will be able to keep a clean sheet. I expect an entertaining game with goals and both teams to score.

Premier LeagueLost1:2

Spartak MoscowFC Krasnodar

Why this pick: Krasnodar did not fall apart after Spertsyan’s departure, which is important to note, but the Bulls still do not look as stable for now. We do not know what will happen over the long run, but right now Spartak look preferable.

Premier LeagueWon1:1

AtyrauAktobe

Why this pick: Atyrau have scored at home in 5 consecutive matches since May. In 4 of their 9 home games, the team found the net. Aktobe have also demonstrated a consistent attack. BTTS landed in all 5 of the visitors’ last matches, as well as in 5 of their 9 away games. Given the hosts’ home scoring streak and the visitors’ tendency for both teams to score, the optimal option looks to be a bet on both teams to score.

First LeagueWon1:2

KAMAZVolga Ulyanovsk

Why this pick: It is difficult to judge who is the favorite today, as the teams are equal in status and both made poor starts. However, I will bet on both teams to score. It happened in 3 of KAMAZ’s 4 matches. Volga scored in 3 of 4 matches, except for the game against Chelyabinsk, where they lost without scoring. I think the teams will play entertaining football today. Last season, both matches ended 1:2 and 2:3. It is quite likely that the teams will both score today.

EliteserienLost0:2

LillestromRosenborg

Why this pick: I believe that Lillestrøm and Rosenborg will each score at least one goal. At the same time, the teams’ defenses do not look so poor that the match will turn into a shootout with six or more goals.

First LeagueLost1:3

Ska-khabarovskSpartak Kostroma

Why this pick: It is difficult to imagine what the Khabarovsk side needs to change to score their first goal. A run of three scoreless defeats began on July 13. Considering that Spartak Kostroma have not lost a single match this season and occupy a top-three position, the visitors have a clear advantage. They have only conceded against strong mid-table sides like Yenisey and KAMAZ, while they beat Sochi without conceding. I think the visitors have a chance to keep the game goalless. If the defense plays without mistakes, there will be no exchange of goals.
