⭐ Editor's Pick
Ural are a team with ambitions and a goal of returning to the RPL. Tekstilshchik do not have such a task - for them it is important to keep their place in the First League. At the start of the season the home side have higher motivation, as the team has moved into the top 4, but they are still seven points behind the leader and four behind Veles, who are in second place. In the previous round the leaders met and Veles handed Nizhny Novgorod their first defeat. This works in Ural's favour, as they can close the gap, with their rivals having played one match more. A game against one of the bottom sides is a good opportunity to add three points, but a convincing win may not happen. Tekstilshchik are motivated and will be on a high after their first win of the season. The main bet for this match is Tekstilshchik with a handicap (+1.5). Predicted score - 1:0.
