Akron - CSKA Moskva predictions

The hosts will have little to hope for in this match. The betting odds work against them and so does the overall impression. They are a weaker side here and it would be a proper upset if they manage to beat CSKA Moskva.

Details can make a big difference in matches like this one. One way for CSKA Moskva to reach their goal in this game is to stick firmly to their game plan and execute it flawlessly.

It’s fair to say even the most avid Akron supporters were surprised to see their team land a comprehensive Krylya Sovetov victory in the last round of the Premier League. Having taken an early lead, Akron smelled blood and went for the jugular resulting in a big-margin, morale-boosting triumph.

CSKA Moskva won their previous Premier League matchup thanks to a late-game decider. They spent most of the game’s runtime toe-to-toe with Khimki, which was somewhat unexpected considering how one-sided the betting odds initially were.

A lot of games CSKA Moskva play end with either 1 or no goals at all. This is most notably true for the previous two rounds of the league.

As far as the head-to-head history goes, this is the second time we’ll be seeing these two squads clash this season. CSKA Moskva decisively won that first match, and they’re still seen as the favourites despite playing as the away team.

Fortunately, none of the teams’ players has been injured or suspended recently. With their full lineups at their disposal, we’re in for an exciting match.

And Under 2.5 Goals is the perfect wager for this fixture. A quick glance at these teams’ statistics will tell you all you need to know about their concession rates, which is why it’s a fairly safe bet, generally priced at around 1.83.
