Ural – Rubin Kazan. Editors’ prediction
Ural have secured their stay in the Russian Premier League for next season. However, they are nine points away from the Europa League qualification places, thus meaning there is nothing to play for and that the season is effectively over for them at this point.
For Rubin Kazan, the situation is different, and in contrast, is much worse. They are only four points above the relegation zone and if things don’t turn around now, they could find themselves sucked right into midst of a relegation battle. To remind you, this is a club who beat Barcelona 2-1 at Camp Nou back in 2009, and now, in 2016, they are facing a fight for survival in the last matches of the Russian season.
It’s hard to predict the outcome here, but I’m opting for goals. Ural have scored in an every single home league match this season, while Rubin are likely to be hugely motivated having scored four against Dynamo last time out. Before that, they scored two in the away game against Zenit. So, the sound option here is to pick BTTS.
It’s also worth noting is that the odds on the away team’s win have plummeted with various bookies from 3.21 to 2.3-2.4 now. You should consider this fact when betting on the match.
