Bet on total
Today we expect to see a less than productive match. The home team has not scored in four of the last six head-to-head matches, and the visitors have scored more than one goal in only one of ten matches. Most likely, the visitors will score one goal and calmly bring the match to victory.
Forecast - total under 2.5 goals with odds of 1.98
Bet on corners
Most likely, the opponents will rely on defensive football, so do not expect a large number of corners in this match.
Forecast - total under 8.5 goals with odds of 1.80
