Rostov has finally broken their streak of failures in the championship! Last weekend, Valeriy Karpin's wards gave Akhmat no chance of success, defeating the Grozny 3:0 at home. The win ended a seven-game losing streak for Rostov, who had suffered four defeats and three draws. The three crucial points allowed them to move out of the qualifying and up to tenth place in the Premier League standings.
Lokomotiv
Lokomotiv has already completed all their group-stage tasks in the Russian Cup and secured their place in the RPL playoffs, so there is no need for Mikhail Galakhov's team to think about the upcoming match against Rubin. Now, they can safely focus on their performance in the championship, where they are not doing the best. For 12 rounds, they suffered only two defeats against CSKA and Orenburg - 1:4 and 0:2, which is not so bad, but they also have not so many victories, namely five pieces. Lokomotiv has drawn the same number of times, including against Ural and Dynamo in their last two matches - 2:2 and 0:0, which is enough for the current fifth place in the standings.
Expert Betting Tips
Rostov finally finished their losing streak in the last round, but now Lokomotiv, who have scored 8 out of 12 points in the previous four rounds, visit Valeri Karpin's team. Mikhail Galaktionov found a balance in his team's game, which looked weak in defense at the beginning of the championship, but now the situation has stabilized. The Muscovites have a more experienced and skillful lineup and many more opportunities to strengthen during the match with substitutions, which makes them favorites in the upcoming confrontation.
The confrontation between Rostov and Lokomotiv in recent years has always been an entertaining and goal-rich phenomenon. In nine previous games, the opponents have scored a total of 34 goals (an average of 3.78 per game).
