Fakel Win

APWin experts have analysed the main betting markets and selected high-value bets.

👉 Our prediction is: Both teams don't score

Based on our analysis, we are confident that the best bet is to go 'no' on the Both Teams to Score market.

The matchup figures to be a tight, defensive one, with both teams desperate not to get caught out. That's why we see only one or none of the teams finding the back of the net in this encounter, which are the conditions needed to win the bet.

👉 Our prediction is: Fakel to win the 1st half

Fakel is a tough opponent to face, particularly away from home. They have enough dangerous attacking weapons to deal some damage up front, while the defence is quite solid as well.

It would not be a shock if they come in and give their hosts Volga Ulyanovsk a bit of a scare in the early going.

That is why we recommend taking Fakel to win the first half.
