THE PREDICTION

Sochi bounced back from successive defeats with an extremely impressive 2-1 victory over CSKA Moscow last time out. They’ll be hoping to back this up about Ufa, however the hosts are in good recent form with successive league wins under their belts heading into this one. With just two points separating 14^th-placed Ufa from 15^th-placed Rotor in one of the two relegation places, this is a vital contest for Ufa who need to keep pointing points on the board to keep themselves above the bottom two. Sochi are expected to find it difficult breaking down Ufa, who will set themselves up in a rigid and disciplined nature as they look to soak up pressure and hit the visitors on the break. With two straight clean sheets under their belt, Ufa with home advantage in their favour are more than capable of frustrating Sochi and considering them here double chance may prove the smart play.
