Petrocub vs Ordabasy Prediction & Betting Tips (17 July)

CS Petrocub won the first title in its history in a championship dominated by Sheriff last year on the local scene. A long-term reward for this small club founded 30 years ago now. Often in the top 2 over the last few years, however, this positioning allowed Petrocub to take part in the qualifications for the Europa League, which took the Moldovan club to the 3rd round of qualifications in 2022-2023, for a very heavy defeat in the cumulation against Ferencvaros 7-1. In the first leg, the two teams went back to back 0-0. A good deal for an outsider Petrocub before kick-off.

 Opposite, Ordabasy Shymkent, defending champion last year to the detriment of the steamroller Astana FC, has the chance to compete in the first round of qualifying for the 2023-2024 Champions League. Like Astana in 2016, let's hope for today's visitors that they have the chance to play in the group stages of the Champions League. For now she must concentrate on the return after the 0-0 draw in the first leg. Finally, the Kazakh championship is in full swing, Ordabasy is the leader after 12 days with 25 points, 3 more than his runner-up Aktobe.
