Tip and bets
Both teams have struggled offensively this season, seldom scoring more than one goal per match. It’s likely that in this contest, the clubs will focus primarily on defense, making a bet on the total goals less appealing.
Our prediction is under 2.5 goals at 1.67.

Altai has been performing well recently despite lacking tournament motivation, while their opponents, Turkestan, have struggled with three losses and a draw in their last four matches. It seems unlikely that Turkestan will secure a win away from home.
Our prediction is an Altai victory with odds of 1.75.
