Tobias Gourlay reckons the Bulls won't have everything their own way in one of this afternoon's Russian Premier League games
FK Krasnodar v FK Tambov
Monday 16:30
There was early Christmas cracker in Germany yesterday - and Kev was on the right end of it. Werder Bremen led twice in Wolfsburg, were pegged back twice by their hosts, but finally won 3-2 to land our man's Double Chance bet. He finishes the week in profit and on an unbroken winning streak of four. Kev will be back for more next Monday. In the meantime, we've got some work to do if we're to match that kind of form.
Our shift begins in Russia, where one of this afternoon's two Premier League games takes 15th-placed FK Tambov (W5-D2-L10) to fourth-placed FK Krasnodar (W9-D6-L2). We fancy the visitors, who were promoted last season, can nick at least a goal from their hosts.
Murad Musaev's Krasnodar are unbeaten at Krasnodar Stadium this term (W5-D3-L0), but the Bulls have conceded seven times in the most recent six of those matches. BTTS has been the right bet in 5/6.
Aleksandr Grigoryan's Tambov might be second bottom of the overall table, but we've seen worse away records (W2-D2-L4). The Wolves have scored 10 times across those eight matches, scoring at least once in 7/8. We fancy they can make it 8/9 when they go up against a shaky home defence in Krasnodar this evening. At the other end, the Wolves have conceded in 8/8 on the road this term and we see no reason to doubt they will concede again. We'll happily grab the even money about BTTS.
