On Sunday evening, the program of the third round of the Russian Premier League will close in Rostov-on-Don, where the local Rostov will host Khimki near Moscow. We bring to your attention the forecast for this duel.
"Rostov"
Valery Karpin's team only closes the top 10 in the standings after the first two rounds, although it is impossible to make any serious claims against the "yellow-blue". Rostov played away in Moscow twice, both times being close to victory. At first, Rostov did not put the squeeze on Dynamo a little (1:1), and then it was a shame to miss the victory over Lokomotiv (2:2), missing right before the final whistle.
Khimki
The residents of Khimki also deserve the most flattering words for their performance and results at the start of the new championship. In the first round, Sergey Yuran's team managed to snatch a draw in a home match with Zenit, the champion of the last four years (1:1), after which, again on their own field, they beat Pari NN Nizhny Novgorod (3:0), although they scored all their goals after the 60th minute.

The net victory of the hosts is estimated here by a good coefficient, so you should not invent something original when choosing a bet on the game.
