Fakel - Rostov predictions

A home win would be a big surprise in this match. Fakel are the underdogs here and it will be a huge surprise if they end up grabbing a win here.

Though Rostov are the stronger team between the two, we wouldn’t call an away bet at the odds of 2.05 a safe one. It’s shaping up to be quite an exciting match.

For the first 45 minutes, it looked as if Fakel could return from a tough trip with at least a point in the bag. However, the situation changed after the break when Fakel suffered a blow and ended up losing the game by a single goal margin.

Rostov went into their previous Premier League match as clear underdogs, yet managed to keep the score even in the first half. Their opponents Akhmat Grozny scored the deciding goal in the second half, though, resulting in a narrow away loss for Rostov.

A high concessions rate is not a good look to have, and Fakel have been on a downward spiral when it comes to their defensive performance. With 5 goals conceded over their past 3 games, there’s definite room for improvement.

Given 7 goals conceded in their own net over the past 3 matches, Rostov's defensive line is much to be desired.

It’s clear that Rostov are the favourites in this matchup, and they have the numbers to back that up. They faced Fakel earlier this season and snagged a decisive victory which they’ll be looking to repeat.

The absence of injuries or suspensions means both teams will have their full lineups at their disposal for a thrilling matchup.

If you want to get some value out of this match, you’ll need to be willing to take a risk. The best betting offers are found in the HT/FT market, specifically for a Draw/Away bet.
