FC Rostov hosts Akhmat Grozny in round 11 of the Russian Premier League. The match will be played on Sunday, October 18th at Rostov Arena (Rostov)
Rostov showed quite a good game in the first ten rounds and gained 17 points. The team is betting on getting into the Champions League, and this is a very likely result so far - the gap to Zenit and Spartak, which share the first two places, is only four points. The third CSKA is only two points ahead. The Yellow-Blues were in bad mood before leaving for the break for the matches of the national teams. In the last match, bets on Rostov's defeat to Sochi (4:2) turned out to be the right investment. The game was bright, and the Rostovites would not have lost if they had not left with ten men after the red card received by Norman (the score was 1:1 in the 64th minute).

Akhmat shows a surprisingly good game and is only three points behind Rostov. If the visitors win in the upcoming match, they can catch up with their counterparts. Of course, the main goal of Grozny is simply to keep a place in the Russian Premier League, but the current situation is quite favorable to compete for the Europa League. Shortly before the break, Akhmat managed to break a streak of three consecutive defeats in the championship. In the last games, Grozny beat FC Ural at home (2:0) and tied with Rubin on the road (1:1). Despite this, the team is an outsider in the upcoming match with Rostov, according to bookmakers.
However, we think that they overestimated Rostov before this game. Akhmat is showing football of good quality, and it must impose a serious struggle in this game, which will give it every chance of at least a draw.
Prediction for the match: Akhmat Grozny to win with +0.5 handicap
