Rostov - Krasnodar predictions

With a difficult matchup ahead of them, Rostov will need to focus if they want to bring in another 3 points. They are not overwhelmingly outmatched by any means, but they are generally seen as the underdogs compared to Krasnodar.

While Krasnodar may manage to claw their way to a win yet, it will be quite a struggle. As we can see thanks to the 2.77 betting odds for an away win, the odds are stacked against them – though it’s still manageable.

Rostov’s home supporters were treated to an outstanding performance in the team’s previous Premier League matchup. They were considered the favourites largely due to the home-field advantage, but the 2:0 victory they recorded after spending most of the match ahead was relatively surprising.

Krasnodar latest performance wasn’t a great show of form for them. They were leading at the half-time mark against Rubin Kazan', but the lead melted away as the match progressed. Considering they were tagged as favourites going in, the 1:1 draw is not a great result.

A quick look at the season’s match history tells us that Krasnodar won the last time these two squads clashed. It’s easy to see why most bookies online expect them to come out on top again, even if said victory was a narrow home win.

The best choice for this fixture is quite easy to figure out – an Under 2.5 Goals bet at the odds of 1. It’s an almost guaranteed win that’s not too bad in the value department either.
