Rostov vs Lokomotiv Moscow
Russia – Premier League
Date: Monday, September 14, 2024
Starts at 18pm UK / 30pm CET
Location: Rostov Arena (Rostov).

Rostov Arena will face two of the most successful clubs in the Russian Premier League in recent years, playing three points against each other.

Rostov aims to climb a little higher in the table by improving their form. Meanwhile, Lokomotiv Moscow will try to regain the title they lost as runners-up last season.

Valeri Karpin and his men faced Krasnodar in their previous league clash last month. The teams shared the spoils in that clash which ended 1-1.

Loko make the visit after a goalless draw at home against Zenit, which was the fourth consecutive game without a win, with two draws and two defeats.

Rostov vs Lokomotiv Moscow Head-to-head (h2h)

• Only one of the last five games ended in a draw.
• The visitor registers four of the last five overall victories.
• The previous encounter yielded a 1-3 away win for Loko.
• Four of the last five matches have seen both teams score.

Prediction Rostov vs Lokomotiv Moscow

With a three-match unbeaten streak on the league table, Selmashi will likely try to catch the visitors off guard at some point in the game.

Even so, the visitor registered more victories in the last h2h meetings with the host. Based on this, the host won't have much use of the ground advantage in the middle.

Lokomotiv Moscow faced some problems at the end of last season, and their winless run in their last four matches on the calendar was a clear example of this. Therefore, a double chance that favors Loko is likely to serve punters to earn decent returns.

Given that we can expect a few goals in the two teams meeting with probability of head-to-head in ninety minutes, the tip for over 1,5 goals is probably the best bet for punters.

Betting tips for Rostov vs Lokomotiv Moscow
