Command Analysis

Lokomotiv Moscow

Russian Federation

Current form

Lokomotiv looked very solid in the first round of the championship and spent some time in the status of a contender for the championship title, but slowed down. After the winter break, Mikhail Galaktionov's team is not particularly stable and currently occupies only the sixth place in the table with 45 points, 13 points behind the leader Krasnodar, the third CSKA has six points more. There would have been more chances for bronze, but in the last round, Lokomotiv lost points in a duel against Rostov, drawing 1-1 away.

FC Rostov

Russian Federation

Current form

Rostov certainly expected to compete for a place in the top five of the Premier League and, in general, had a sufficiently qualified selection of performers in order to set such tasks for themselves. However, in the second half of the season, after Valery Karpin's resignation, Rostov residents are not particularly stable and currently occupy only the eighth place in the table, two points behind the seventh Ruby, but the sixth Locomotive has already gone ahead by eight points and it will be almost impossible to win back such a handicap.

Disqualifications and injuries

Mohebi and El-Askalani are injured.

Interesting betting trends

Rostov has scored only one victory in the last five matches.
Rostov has conceded in the last 11 matches.

Approximate line—up: Odoevsky — Langovich, Osipenko, Sako, Vakhania — Komarov, Shantali, Shchetinin - Ronaldo, Komlichenko, Golenkov.

Tip and bets

2.15total more than three goals

Lokomotiv will definitely be as motivated as possible today and set up to win in regular time. Railroad workers are able to set maximum goals for themselves – the leadership is inferior in terms of player selection, and Rostov residents are very far from optimal shape. It will be almost impossible for the guests to win back to zero in Moscow in such a situation, but at the same time, the Cup remains the only opportunity for Rostov to brighten up the season, for sure the yellow and blue will also play bravely and the duel will be spectacular and effective.

We believe that the match will be productive. The betting tip is a total of more than three goals. Such a bet is offered with a coefficient of 2.15

2.09victory of the Locomotive

Betting on the outcome

Lokomotiv dropped out of the fight even for the third place in the championship, and of course now the main goal of the railwaymen remains to win the Cup and today there is a chance to make it to the finals along the way of the regions. Despite the fact that Lokomotiv is not in the best shape right now, the hosts are quite capable of getting a ticket to the finals – Rostov is even more unstable and inferior in the selection of players, against such an opponent in their field, the railwaymen are able to play to win and achieve their goals.

The bet is the victory of the Locomotive. This bet is offered for 2.09

Betting on corners

At home, Lokomotiv will obviously play with an advantage and will spend a lot of time attacking – the hosts should win confidently on corners.

The bet is the victory of the Locomotive on the corners. This bet is offered for 1.61
