1.90Tip and bets
The rivals are in a good position and are out of the relegation zone before the final matches of the season. Both teams have had excellent recent matches, so it's hard to single out a favorite. It is very likely that this meeting will end in a draw, as such an outcome will suit both Lokomotiv and CSKA 1948, and such an outcome was not uncommon in face-to-face meetings.
Our betting tip is a draw for 3.10
Bet on the total
In recent rounds, the opponents have worked almost perfectly defensively and will certainly keep their focus on defending their goal in a face-to-face confrontation. No one has secured a place in the elite division yet, so no one can lose. Most likely, we will see cautious football without a lot of scoring chances.
Our betting tip is a total of less than 2.5 goals in 1.67
Betting on corners
We believe that the opponents will rely on defense, so we should not expect a large number of flank attacks. A defensive style of play is unlikely to lead to a large number of corners.
Our betting tip is a total of less than 9.5 corners in 1.80
