Qatar - Russia: betting tip (cf 3.50) and bets on the friendly match

Current form

After the home World Cup, the Qatar national team is clearly going through hard times. For a long time it was not possible to achieve anything, in May the experienced Julen Lopetegui was invited to the post of head coach. It cannot be said that the team under his leadership immediately played at a different level, only in some matches there were good results. In total, under the guidance of this specialist, the national team held seven matches, taking into account all tournaments, won three victories, suffered the same number of defeats and ended one meeting in a draw.

Qatar is currently preparing for the final round of the World Cup qualifiers. As a reminder, Lopetegui's team failed to win a ticket to the United States after three stages. Instability prevented it. In the last two matches, we first managed to defeat the difficult team of Iran (1-0), and then there was a disastrous duel with Uzbekistan (0-3). There are battles ahead with Oman and the UAE.

During the current international break, Qatar held a friendly meeting with Bahrain (2-2). Until the 87th minute in that match, the opponent led 2-1, but Ahmed Alaeldin brought the Qataris a draw with his precise shot. In general, the Qatar national team does not conduct control matches in the best way. So, for the last eight sparring sessions, there is only one victory, with three draws and four defeats.

Current form

The level of the Russian national team's opponents has increased significantly recently. There are no matches with openly inferior Grenada or Zambia anymore. Accordingly, you can see a deterioration in the results. During the last international break, there was a 1-1 draw with Nigeria. This time in Moscow it was not possible to beat Jordan (0:0). Of the positive aspects, the only thing that can be noted in this segment is the confident victory in Minsk over the Belarusian national team with a score of 4:1, but the opponent is clearly on the decline now, and the difference in class is still noticeable.

Valery Karpin did not release all the strongest players for the match with the Jordanians. Nevertheless, it is obvious that the coaching staff is betting on a duel with Qatar and gives all the players the opportunity to prove themselves. With Jordan (0-0), there were chances at the same and second gates, a draw was in many ways a logical outcome, but still the national teams had difficulties with implementation. According to Karpin, Golovin, Alexey Miranchuk, Kislyak and Batrakov should be expected in Doha. Undoubtedly, the squad will be the strongest, which should be taken into account when choosing bets on the game.

Overall, the overall statistics of friendly matches among Russians are still impressive. It should be noted that in 9 of the 11 previous test matches, the national team did not miss.
