Spartak Moscow vs FK Sochi
This weekend the Premier League will hold its first party in the 2019/20 season. Spartak Moscow is very fortunate to receive an easy draw against the promotion team, Sochi PFC. The win in the opening game will be a sweet gift for the Otkritie Arena public.
Last season they landed in the top 4 so they had to take part in the play-offs to be able to perform in the Europa League. The home game will be one of the homework that must be improved this season after last year only reaped 7 wins, 3 draws and lost 5 times. In fact, the aggregate goals were also very thin after scoring 19 times and conceding 16 goals.
Meanwhile, the Sochi PFC managed to rise to Premier League competition after yesterday’s season landed as runner-up to the National Football League. Their away record occupies the same position with 9 wins, 7 draws and only lost 3 times after stealing 33 goals and conceding only 16 times.
The graph is expected to be able to lift the morale of players when performing at the Otkritie Arena. Of course facing the old Premier League participants will present a more difficult challenge, it was proven last June when they met in a test match won by Spartak Moscow with a striking score, 7-1.
Our Prediction: Over 2.5
Odds: 1.61
