Astrakhan vs Legion Makhachkala Prediction & Betting Tips (15 May)

Having triumphed at their one of the past 5 games of the season, Legion Makhachkala have since gone on to lose eight of their next ten matches at the top table of the FNL 2. Astrakhan, by way of contrast, have enjoyed 13 wins in their previous 20 home games at this level, so the club from the capital will be confident of putting FNL 2 bottom side to the sword.

This Astrakhan side is not exactly renowned for playing exciting football, with a staggering 14 of their previous 17 matches in the FNL 2 delivering no more than a couple of goals. High-flying Legion Makhachkala have followed a similar pattern in the top-flight recently, as nine of Astrakhan outfit’s last 12 games have also served up under 2.5 goals.

Witnessing goals at both ends has proven to be quite unusual in top-flight fixtures in which Astrakhan are the home team, with this being the case in just five of their previous 19 matches. What’s more, title-chasing Legion Makhachkala clearly know how to keep clean sheets, managing to do so in 11 of their most recent 17 games at the top table of the FNL 2.
