⭐ Editor's Pick
The bookmakers aren't separating these two, which makes sense given how unconvincing both sides have been so far. Shinnik and Arsenal Tula are sitting close together in the table and neither has shown anything close to consistency, so don't expect either side to take unnecessary risks. Their head-to-head record backs that up too - 6 of their last 7 meetings have produced no more than two goals. The most logical play here is total goals under 2.5. Predicted score: 0-0.
