In one of the friendly matches, the players of Khimki and Veles will come face to face. Will the favorite of the meeting be able to win in this confrontation? Our sports portal evaluates the chances of rivals for success. Khimki
The players of "Khimki" are close to being relegated to the First League at the end of the season. At least for the winter break, the "red-blacks" left, being located in the direct relegation zone, namely, on the 15th line, having 12 points in their asset. In the last round before the pause, Khimki lost to Sochi with a score of 0:2. The Red-Blacks could not show anything in the matches of the Fonbet Cup of Russia, where they lost in all six matches played, gaining only 2 tournament points to their asset. And even then, due to the fact that we simply did not lose to two opponents during the main time of the matches.
"Veles"
"Veles" is playing in the First League this season. After 20 matches played, the team is on the 14th line in the standings, with 20 points to its credit. By the way, Muscovites are ahead of the departure zone by only 1 point, so it's too early for the nominal guests to relax. In the last round before the pause, Veles managed to defeat Yenisei in a face-to-face meeting (2:0). The three points scored in the match with the Krasnoyarsk team made it possible to finish the first part of the season outside the "red" zone.
Statistics and figures: Khimki are the favorites of the meeting;
- Khimki have not won in 4 matches in a row in all tournaments;
- "Veles" has a 2-match series without defeats;
- The last face-to-face meeting of the opponents ended with a score of 0:0.
- Forecast
The rivals have met each other only twice in history, and both times they drew.
I believe that the status of the match, as well as the lack of special motivation, will not allow the opponents to show their best football. Our bet will be in favor of parity. The quotation for this event is very solid.
