Sanat Naft vs Persepolis tips and predictions

Persian Gulf Pro League match offers big price against Sanat Naft triumph

Here is one of those matches where it's quite obvious that the away team is markedly the superior outfit. But even if they end up scoring eight times, the short odds cannot be recommended.

The hosts are going into the match having chalked up 1 win from their last 3 games. If you believe the experts, Persepolis have won this before a ball has even been kicked. However it's worth looking a little closer at how these sides measure up.

Sanat Naft are going to have to produce a level of football most people don't think they have in them. If the hosts are up for it, they'll have gained a lot confidence from their previous outings. The hosts have been building up a head of steam. They have scored at least once in 2 of their recent 3 matches and they have conceded no more than once in 4 of their last 5 games.

Persepolis have actually conceded three or more goals in 0 of their last 3 matches. If all is not well it might not be limited to their defence. The attacking form shown by the visitors has been short of their previous standards. They averaged just 0.6 goals in their last 10 away matches.

Persepolis will be keen to further justify their short price with a clean sheet at full-time. The No BTTS bet seems fair enough.

For the hosts, the tactics on their own patch will be clear from the start. Nobody thinks they can do it but the hosts have been efficient in front of goal.
