Rubin Kazan v FK Krasnodar could be quite the advert for Russian football

"Oleg Kononov's Bulls have the league's best away record and have scored more regularly on the road than anyone else"

Tobias Gourlay's long-running quest for goals finally takes him to Tatarstan today

Rubin Kazan v FK Krasnodar
Saturday 17:30

Athlone 1 Drogheda 2 in Ireland last night. We wondering whether all of those Irish eyes are still smiling the morning after.

Because ours aren't - and we've got a long journey to make.

Tenth in the Russian Premier League, Rubin Kazan are enjoying a thoroughly average campaign. Valeriy Chalyi's men have at least scored in 8/9 home games under the new(-ish) boss. Five of those games delivered Over 2.5 Goals in total and that's exactly what our bet of the day is going to be.

Third-placed FK Krasnodar are on a winning streak of five. Oleg Kononov's Bulls have the league's best away record (W7-D3-L3) and have scored more regularly on the road than anyone else (23 in 13). Seven of their last 10 away days have brought Over 2.5 Goals - and that too suggests the price for another high scorer this afternoon is too big.
