Our Expert Predictions & Analysis on Sochi vs Akhmat

Sochi

Sochi had a good start to the season, beating Baltika 2-0 in the first round of the Russian championship on its territory. The guys of Dmitry Khokhlov did not stop there. In the Cup of Russia on the road, having confidently dealt with Fakel 3:1. Only in the last match of the championship, the Leopards made a mistake, losing away from Krasnodar 0:2. Sochi residents this time were not ready for an active struggle, so the "bulls" calmly decided the outcome in their favor.

Sochi is in 9th place in the standings, earning 3 points, with a goal ratio of 2:2.

Akhmat

But Akhmat completely failed the start, right now the team is on a series of three defeats in a row at all levels. The day before, the guys of Sergey Tashuev failed in the Cup of Russia, losing on the road to Zenit 0:2. The Grozny team also performed poorly in the Premier League, losing to Krasnodar 2:3 already at home. The "Green-Whites" were forced to fight off the attacks of the "bulls" all the time, they did not manage to win luck over to their side. Goals for the hosts scored Konate, who scored a double from the penalty spot.

Akhmat takes 14th place in the championship, the club has no points, the goal difference is 3:5.

Game Totals Prediction

Sochi started the season well, the team intends to fight for places at the top of the table. I failed the start of the season, losing all three of my matches, while the team has good potential. As for the upcoming game, given the start of the teams this season, a series of 4 victories for Sochi over Grozny at home, I think Khokhlov's guys will not be left without points this time either: Sochi will not lose - handicap 1 (0) - 1.70.
