2.45Tip and bets
AKM has shown good hockey at the start of the season and plans to remain in the leading positions in the championship. Tambov does not look so good yet, and has lost to today's opponent in the last three face-to-face matches. We believe that the Tula team will gain the upper hand this time too.
Our prediction is AKM victory in the match for 1.60
Bet on total
In the last match, AKM conceded eight goals, but before that, the club played well in defense. We believe that the coaching staff will make adjustments and again show a good game at their goal. The hosts are not playing their best in attack, so we do not expect more than five goals in this match.
Betting Tip - total under five goals with odds of 1.64
Bet on individual total
Tambov has problems with goals scored. In none of the last four matches did Tambov score more than two goals. We believe that the hosts will not improve this result now.
Betting Tip - Tambov's individual total is less than two goals for 1.90
