Akhmat Grozny - Khimki predictions

Akhmat Grozny are easily the favourites in the match this Saturday, but we wouldn’t call a Home Win bet at the odds of 1.85 safe, exactly. They are more likely to win than not, but Khimki may have a few tricks up their sleeve yet.

It would be a minor miracle for Khimki to win at Akhmat Grozny, and they’re likely aware of that. Though risky, such an outcome could bring solid profits thanks to the 4.51 price on most online sportsbooks.

The hosts will be looking to bounce back from the narrow away defeat they recorded in the last $LEGUE round (HOME_LAST_ROUND_AWAY). If there are any positives to be taken from their previous game then it must be the fact Akhmat Grozny held rather well for the first 45 minutes.

Khimki played well above expectations in their previous round – even though the final result was a 1:1 draw. We have to consider that they faced off against Zenit, who are considered a tremendously stronger team.

Akhmat Grozny’s recent performances have raised some questions about their defence. They conceded 6 goals throughout their latest three Premier League matches and betting on Over 4.5 seems like a reasonable option.

On Saturday, both teams will have a complete roster at their disposal, thanks to a lack of injuries or suspensions.

The best choice for this fixture is quite easy to figure out – an Under 2.5 Goals bet at the odds of 1.75. It’s an almost guaranteed win that’s not too bad in the value department either.
