Rubin Kazan' - Lokomotiv Moskva predictions

With a difficult matchup ahead of them, Rubin Kazan' 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 Lokomotiv Moskva.

A difficult match is ahead of Lokomotiv Moskva. They have a big fish to fry but we’ve seen them do it in the past and it’s certain they can do it again.

Although Rubin Kazan'’s previous Premier League outing at Krylya Sovetov was a crushing away loss, it’s hard to judge their form based on that performance alone. After all, they were out-classed by Krylya Sovetov , who secured an early lead and a comfortable 2:0 victory in the end.

Lokomotiv Moskva dropped a half-time lead in their latest home game against CSKA Moskva. The single point was more than welcome, though, considering their opponents were expected to win despite playing as visitors.

Rubin Kazan' have been struggling to keep the ball out of their net lately. For instance, their previous 3 Premier League matches were marked by more than 5 goals conceded in total.

With 6 goals in Lokomotiv Moskva’s net over their three most recent home games, online bookmakers are not giving them great chances of ending this game one with a clean sheet.

The season’s records show a draw in a game between Rubin Kazan' and Lokomotiv Moskva during an earlier round of the competition. Considering the favourable betting odds, Lokomotiv Moskva can’t be happy with that outcome, especially considering the fact that they played at home.

With no injuries or suspensions, both teams will have their full rosters available for an exciting showdown.
