Olimp-Dolgoprudny vs SKA Khabarovsk tips and predictions

Confidence the likely significant for SKA Khabarovsk

There are 11 points separating the two FNL clubs as 16th place Olimp-Dolgoprudny get set to host fifth place SKA Khabarovsk.

This feels like a match with all outcomes being possible but the pick is for SKA Khabarovsk to get a result.

Given their recent form the hosts could be worth opposing. Olimp-Dolgoprudny are a bit of an enigma at the moment. They've lost 6 of their last 9 matches. These reverses haven't been helped by their latest goal tally. They've scored one or less goals in 11 of their last 12 games and that won't be good enough, even if there were injury issues at the other end of the park.

SKA Khabarovsk have secured the win in 5 of their last 10 away matches. Notably they've scored two or more goals in 6 of their last 10 away fixtures and assuming they don't have any fitness woes between now and the start of the match, they should have the goal scorers to enjoy further success here. In defence they have also posted some good numbers. They've kept a clean sheet in 4 of their last 6 away matches. If the away team gets off to a confident start they could be celebrating come full time.

To be honest they might end up in parity. Each of the two sides can present danger and it might be a match with scoring chances at both ends. It's not a strong view but the Yes BTTS bet is the cautious side bet.
