Spartak Kostroma vs Leningradets Prediction, H2H Stats & Statistical Bets 17 October 2026
🔉 Spartak Kostroma come into this match with more consistent results and remain among the teams in contention for promotion. Leningradets are fighting for survival and currently sit close to the danger zone in the First League. On recent form, the hosts look the more convincing side, though the visitors retain strong motivation and are capable of making things difficult for the favourites. The league situation pushes both teams towards an open game - one side cannot afford to lose ground in the race for the top two, while the other cannot afford another slip-up.

Head-to-head statistics Spartak Kostroma - Leningradets
Spartak Kostroma Team Overview
Spartak Kostroma 13 October 2026 beat Chelyabinsk 1-0 at home in the Russian Cup, despite being outshot 6-12 and having a man sent off. The score was level at 0-0 at half-time.
Spartak Kostroma have won three of their last five matches, losing twice in the same period. Over their last ten games, they have recorded six wins and three defeats, which points to a reasonable balance between attack and defence. On average, the hosts score 1.38 goals per match and concede exactly one - a fairly solid return for a side in the upper part of the table. There is one notable caveat, however: in 17 of their last 19 home matches, they have conceded at least once, and that defensive inconsistency could cause problems even against opponents from the lower end of the table.
Match Results: Spartak Kostroma
Leningradets Team Overview
Five shots were enough for Leningradets to beat Luki Energiya 2-0 at home. In their most recent Russian Cup match on 14 October 2026, the team had four shots on target to their opponents' one, with both goals coming after the break.
Leningradets have won just once in their last five league matches, losing twice and drawing twice over that run. Across their last ten games, they have four wins, three defeats and three draws - modest numbers compared to Spartak Kostroma, but a run without any obvious collapse has kept them out of the relegation zone. Their average figures are below par: just 0.85 goals scored per game against 1.77 conceded, which explains their position towards the bottom of the table. That said, the strong motivation to preserve their league status makes Leningradets an awkward opponent for anyone.

Prediction for the 1st half
In six of their last seven matches, Spartak Kostroma have scored in the first half, which supports a tendency for active starts. Taking the home side's statistics into account, the bet on the hosts to score in the first half at odds of 1.53* looks justified.
Correct Score Prediction
According to the algorithm's calculations, the most likely outcomes are 1:0 (13.65%), 2:0 (12.96%) and 2:1 (9.90%). The probabilities are fairly close together, though 1:0 stands out as the most likely of the three. All three scorelines point to a low-scoring match.

⭐ Editorial Prediction
Spartak Kostroma have lost their last two First League matches, but they are now facing a side that has been inconsistent away from home. Before their win over Volga, Leningradets had lost four away league matches in a row. The visitors also had less time to prepare, having played in the Russian Cup during the week. Taking all these factors into account, we are backing a Spartak Kostroma win.
