Spartak Moskva - Krylya Sovetov predictions

Spartak Moskva are likely on their way to a decisive victory, and it’s hard to feel optimistic about the visitors’ prospects. Bookmakers are pricing a home win at 1.50, which is quite in line with most expert opinions.

Considering what they’re up against, Krylya Sovetov can’t set their ambitions too high in this match. Playing as visitors at odds of 7.07 for an away win, calling them underdogs seems like an understatement.

The home team were the most likely winners of their previous Premier League engagement even before kick-off, but few saw the crushing 1:3 away victory coming. After a rather mediocre first half, they completely dominated the later stages of the game.

The away team’s home supporters were in for a painful show in the previous round, with Krylya Sovetov facing Rostov on their home turf. Much like most predictions and bookies expected, their defences quickly crumbled and they were already behind at the 45-minute mark. This goal difference only increased with time, ultimately ending in a 1:3 loss.

Maintaining their defences has been a bit of a struggle for Krylya Sovetov lately. They ended up conceding 5 goals over the 3 most recent matches alone, leaving many fans disappointed.

The latest example of a clash between these two sides we have is from last season when Spartak Moskva managed to walk away with a solid victory and a 2+ goal difference. If the 1.50 betting odds for a home win are to be believed, most bookies are expecting them to repeat that success.

Monday's matchup will see both teams at full strength, free of injuries and suspensions.

Going for a straight Result bet would severely limit your profits, so our advice is to throw in a -1.5 Asian Handicap for the favourites. This will still keep the odds in your favour at 1, but should do wonders for potential profitability.
