Command Analysis

PFC Sochi

Current form
Sochi left the Premier League a year ago and, at the start of the First League season, was betting on winning a direct ticket to the country's top football division. However, it was not possible to go smoothly and steadily all the way, there were serious declines. As a result, Sochi had a weak ending to the championship, scored only one point in the final three rounds and finished fifth. This position does not give the right to play play-off matches, but it was lucky: Chernomorets did not pass the RFU licensing procedure and could not continue to fight for a place in the RPL, and Sochi took its place. Interestingly, in the last round, Robert Moreno's team lost to Chernomorets (1:2). It should be noted that during the season, the team successfully played home matches, scoring 36 points on its field, which is the second highest score in the First League.
Disqualification and injury
Sissako, Alves and Meleshin will miss the game due to injuries.
Interesting betting trends
- In five consecutive matches, Sochi has drawn in the first half.

Nizhny Novgorod

Current form
Paris NN was close to finishing in a safe 12th place and avoiding play-offs. Nizhny Novgorod played solidly in the last five rounds, scored seven points. In fact, they only have an optional 1-1 draw with the Torch in this segment. The defeats were from Zenit and CSKA in away matches with a score of 1:2 and 0:2, respectively. As a result, Viktor Goncharenko's team was only two points behind the saving 12th place, where Khimki was located. Throughout the season, Paris NN has experienced difficulties in attack: only 27 goals scored, only Fakel has fewer.

6.20Tip and bets
Sochi has only the home field factor on its side in the upcoming meeting, where the team performed well in the First League throughout the season, losing only three times. However, in general, Sochi residents are inferior to Nizhny Novgorod residents in their current form. Obviously, the hosts couldn't stand the competition, they never won in the final three rounds. And this is all against the background of rivals from the First League. Pari NN improved noticeably at the finish line, losing only to the top representatives of the Premier League. We believe that the bookmakers decently overestimate the current capabilities of the Moreno team.
Our betting tip is that the NN bet will not lose at a coefficient of 1.86
Bet on the total
In a two-legged confrontation, the fate of a ticket to the Premier League is being decided, we would not wait for bold and too aggressive football performed by rivals. The price of each ball is too high. Plus, Nizhny Novgorod residents are not very productive and regularly rely on defense in their game.
The second bet is a total of less than 2.5 goals with a coefficient of 1.81
The first half bet
Sochi currently has an impressive streak of five matches in a row, in which a draw was recorded in the opening 45 minutes. We expect that the rivals will look at each other for quite a long time and will not reveal the strongest at the end of the first half.
The betting tip is a draw in the first half with a coefficient of 2.18
