① Rostov's home form and solidity give them the edge.

② Baltika will need a clever plan to threaten, likely limited to countering.

③ A clean sheet for Rostov seems plausible as they control midfield.

① Even matchup, goals likely.

② Both attacks have been in fine form.

③ Defensive errors could lead to a high-scoring game.

① Krasnodar have the home advantage and a slightly stronger recent form than Rostov.

② Rostov can threaten on the counter, but Krasnodar's attack should prevail.

③ Head-to-head shows tight encounters; expect a 2-1 with goals on both sides.
