Football – Russia – Premier League Betting Tips

Rostov will no doubt be keen to preserve their unbeaten record at their Stadion Olimp 2 on Tuesday night when they take on mid-table Ufa as the hosts look to reduce the points deficit to just two behind FC Krasnodar.

Rostov produced possibly their best result of the Russian Premier League season so far on the weekend when they thrashed second placed Spartak Moscow 3-0 at home which extended their unbeaten run overall to eight matches. However, a spate of stalemates (six in total) during these last eight matches has held Rostov back from already occupying at least a Europa League place.

In addition, these six draws have all been 0-0 which underlines Rostov’s recent difficulties in scoring goals amidst their overall home record of  8-4-0  18/2. However, you’ll immediately notice their mean defence which has kept a total of 10 clean sheets from their 12 home matches to date.

Visitors Ufa sit in 9th place in the Russian top flight following their 2-0 defeat at home to Premier league leaders CSKA Moscow which became Ufa’s fifth game without a win on the trot. Within this faltering five game sequence, Ufa have suffered three defeats to Lokomotiv Moscow, Spartak Moscow and the aforementioned CSKA, and all have been on home turf.

In actual fact, Ufa possess a better away record than at their Stadion Neftyanik as they take a record of  6-2-4  8/7 on the road to Rostov although they’ve managed just one away win from their last four on their travels in recent times.

As you can see, Ufa have also struggled to put the ball in the back of the net away from home, and while this game may well be a low scoring affair, I’ll back the home side to just about shade this one, 1-0.
