What to expect
We expect about 1.3 goals from Zhenis and 0.8 from FC Kyzylzhar Petropavlovsk, so Zhenis come out ahead by a nose. Put together, that is around 2.1 goals in the game, so we are braced for a tight one where good chances are rare.
FC Kyzylzhar Petropavlovsk come into this on two straight defeats. Recent results are only ever part of the story, but they are worth knowing before kick-off.
Our pick: Zhenis to win. Zhenis are the stronger side on the numbers (xG 1.2-0.8), and we make them about 46% to win. On this shape, taking them to come out on top looks the cleaner play than chasing a bigger price elsewhere.
We put the chance of that landing at about 45 out of 100. The price on offer is 2.25, which works out at about 44 out of 100. The two sit close together, so this is a lean rather than a standout price.
