Russia football fans — Sochi have been entertaining the masses in Russia this season

"Tambov have scored in 7/9 home games under Sergey Pervushin"

Back Both Teams To Score @ 2.0421/20 in FK Tambov v Sochi

After starting the week with a winner, Tobias Gourlay's headed east for one of this afternoon's Russian Premier League games

FK Tambov v Sochi
Tuesday 16:30

In Norway yesterday, Grorud didn't just grind out a result. They cruised past Kfum Oslo 3-0 to land our Draw No Bet with something to spare.

Today we're in Russia for the top-tier match between FK Tambov and Sochi. The visitors have been scoring and conceding freely so far this season and we're hoping they can land a BTTS bet at slightly better than even money.

The visitors are favourites to win this one. Home and away, they've lost only one of their last 13 matches (away to champions Zenit St Petersburg). This term, they're W2-D2-L0 but BTTS has landed in all four of those matches as they're yet to manage a clean sheet.

The Wolves of Tambov have won one and lost at Mordovia Arena this season. However, they've scored in 7/9 there under Sergey Pervushin and, at a nice price, we'll back them to find the back of the net today and help deliver BTTS.
