Back Over 2.5 Goals @ 2.608/5 in Tosno v Lokomotiv

Lokomotiv Moscow are bound for St Petersburg, where Tobias Gourlay fancies they can light up Petrovsky Stadium

Tosno v Lokomotiv
Monday 16:30

Augsburg 1 Hertha Berlin 1 left Kev a goal short in Germany yesterday. As he heads out to the coal shed again for another round of present buying, we're off to Russia.

Lokomotiv Moscow are five points clear at the top of the Russian Premier League, with this afternoon's game in hand. With hosts Tosno recently conceding 16 times in their last four league outings, we'd expect Lokomotiv extend their lead, but there looks to be more value in the goals markets.

They might be down in 14th, but Dmitro Parfenov's Tosno have scored at least once in six straight at Petrovsky Stadium. Four of those games delivered Over 2.5 Goals, including a 3-1 defeat to third-placed Krasnodar and a 2-2 draw with second-placed Spartak Moscow. With another high flyer on the way today, we like the big price on another three match goals or more.

Lokomotiv have seen 9/16 road games reach Over 2.5 Goals and that too suggests a touch of generosity about the 2.608/5 currently on the Exchange.
