Brothers Union vs Sheikh Russel tips and predictions

Deadlock beckons as motivated Brothers Union can share the spoils

There's not much up for grabs in the 1X2 odds and the short price for Sheikh Russel has made them unbackable. Brothers Union don't look likely to get the win but they might keep the visitors on their toes. With goals being far from abundant, a scoreless deadlock is the pick but it's certainly not one to get carried away with.

Both sides have reasons to be confident of keeping things tidy. Brothers Union have only scored once in their last 3 home starts , while Sheikh Russel are averaging 0.8 goals from their last 5 games.

If Sheikh Russel are to justify their short price they may come out eager to maintain a clean sheet. It isn't huge value but the No BTTS bet seems fair enough. In the total goals market, it's no more than one goal in this game considering how that market has been priced up.

Brothers Union drew one of their last 3 matches, including their most recent match when they drew 1-1 with Fortis at home earlier this month. Sheikh Russel have drawn 6 of their last 12 matches on the road. Their most recent tied match was when they drew with Chittagong Abahani last week. To wrap this up there is nothing to like about the home or away win odds, so the draw is food for thought. Stalemate is the pick after what will probably be a close encounter.
