Orenburg - Akhmat Grozny predictions

Predicting which side will win this match based on odds alone is a complete toss-up. We would say the hosts have a bit of an advantage, but their success is by no means assured.

Given their reputation for perseverance, we expect Akhmat Grozny to give their best effort in this match.

Orenburg are coming on the back of a surprise home win (2:0) in the previous round. Predictions and sportsbook agreed that they didn’t have much of a chance going in the clash against Spartak Moskva – but they pulled off a draw at half-time and a decisive 2:0 lead in the second half.

Most online bookmakers saw the 1:1 score at the end of Akhmat Grozny’s previous league match coming. The odds for their home victory were set around 2.78, so the home-field advantage mostly served to even the playing field. Right on cue, neither team managed to definitively pull ahead throughout the game’s runtime.

In the previous season of Premier League, we saw Orenburg lose to Akhmat Grozny quite badly. However, this year, most bookmakers see them as the favourites of this matchup.

This Sunday, both teams will be at full strength and able to give it their all.

Our advice is to go for an Under 2.5 Goals market, though it was likely not your first instinct. While the probability is rather low compared to what you’re used to from Under 2.5 bets, it compares favourably to the 1 odds offered by 1xbet.
