Torpedo Moscow vs Arsenal Tula Prediction & Betting Tips (9 September)

Promotion-chasing Torpedo Moscow have been in tremendous form on their own patch so far this season, collecting 19 points from a possible 21 in the FNL. Arsenal Tula, on the other hand, have been struggling to adapt to life at a higher level, with a return of four defeats from seven trips doing little to enhance their survival prospects in a competitive second tier.

Goals tend to be in short supply when Arsenal Tula come calling in the FNL, with under 2.5 being served up in 12 of their previous 14 away matches, including in each of the last six. Given that six of the most recent eight Torpedo Moscow games at this level have also fallen into this low-scoring category, a thriller does not appear to be on the cards.

Over the course of their previous 14 matches in the FNL second-tier, Arsenal Tula have been involved in a staggering 12 encounters in which at least one of the two goalkeepers has kept a clean sheet. Even more amazingly, perhaps, Torpedo Moscow boast exactly the same record, so it would come as a major surprise were both teams to find the net in this clash.
