SSN BET - Match of the Day: Krasnodar - Bayer 04 / 14.02.2019
Hello! Today will be the first matches of the 1/16 of the Europa League, and the match with the participation of the Russian club is very suitable for the stakes. And that's why.
KRASNODAR
Krasnodar was in a difficult and fairly level group, where just three teams were fiercely struggling for the playoffs. Nevertheless, the “bulls” managed to beat off the second line in the Standard, Sevilla, which became the winner of the group bypassed the team of Murad Musayev only by additional indicators. In the Russian Premier League, Krasnodar is also very successful - the second line in the table and very justified championship ambitions. Of the winter acquisitions of Krasnodar, it is worth noting the purchase of Kristoffer Olsson from the Swedish AIK, the 23-year-old midfielder is already a player of the national team of Sweden, such a player should obviously help the bulls.
BAYER 04
Bayer failed the first round in the Bundesliga, but managed to get together in time and is currently close to the Champions League zone. "Pharmacists" are now on the sixth line in the table with 33 points in the asset, behind the fourth Leipzig by only five points, which can hardly be called a grandiose handicap. In the Europa League, Bayer had no problems - in the group with Zurich, AEK from Larnaca and Ludogorets, the team then Heiko Herrlich was the best, scoring 13 points. Now the team is headed by Peter Bosch, under whose leadership the “pharmacists” have already beaten Bavaria in the championship, and in general they look very powerful.
STATISTICS AND PERSONAL MEETINGS
- All three home games in the Europa League Krasnodar won
- In each of the last eight home games, Krasnodar scores
- Only in one of the last four matches Bayer scored less than three goals.
So let's summarize. Krasnodar quite well manifested itself in home games in the Europa League. However, it was before the winter break, and as we know after him, the Russian teams are not ready to fight for the next stage of the eurocup. Zenit two days earlier clearly demonstrated this. For Krasnodar, this is the first official match in 2019, and Bayer has already held a number of matches with quite strong opponents in the Bundesliga and looked very powerful. The teams can easily exchange goals, but in my opinion Bayer will win the match.
Krasnodar - Bayer 04 Total Over 2.5 with 1.79 for 5% of bank
Krasnodar - Bayer 04 W2 with 2.05 for 2% of bank
