In one of the most interesting Saturday matches of the 21st round of the Russian Premier League, Spartak Moscow will play at home with Akhmat Grozny. We bring to your attention the forecast for this duel.
"Spartak"
Spartak players lost the second place in the standings before the international break, falling back to the third line. In three RPL matches in the spring part of the season, Guillermo Abascal's team managed to celebrate only 1 victory. In home matches, she first offensively drew with Ural (2:2), after which she put the squeeze on Torch (3:2). In the last round, the Red-whites lost dry to Orenburg on the road (0:2).
"Akhmat"
Akhmatovites are in the current 6th place in the standings, 3 points behind the two rivals going above. In three championship matches after the winter holidays, the Green-Whites scored 6 points, defeating Orenburg on their own field (3:1) and Krylia Sovetov away (1:0). But between these successes, Sergey Tashuev's team suffered two home defeats, losing to Lokomotiv in the championship (0:1), and losing to Krasnodar in the Russian Cup (0:3).
Statistics and figures
- Spartak has lost only 1 match out of the last 11, winning 7 times;
- In four of the last five matches of Spartak in the championship, the bet "Both teams will score" took place;
- Spartak has a 10-match unbeaten streak at home (8 wins + 2 draws);
- Spartak has an 8-match winless streak in face-to-face meetings with Akhmat (6 wins + 2 draws);
- "Akhmat" has a 24-match unbeaten streak (13 wins + 11 losses);
- In the last three matches of "Akhmat" there was a bet "At least one will not score";
- "Akhmat" has never played a draw away this season (7 wins + 7 losses).
Forecast
Akhmat last beat Spartak back in 2018. Since that time, he has come to the "Opening Bank Arena" three times, but each time he left here without glasses. After the winter holidays, Spartak looked much more powerful than Grozny in attack. I don't think Guillermo Absascal's team will change much in terms of defense after a two-week break, so the guests should score their goal. But it is far from a fact that he will help them here at least to cling to a draw.
