Betting guide: Shukura favourite to beat Guria at Chele Arena

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Shukura and Guria.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artificial turf and that the visiting Guria have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artificial turf is 1-2-10 (win-draw-loss) from 13 matches.

Shukura form and stats

The home supporters can't complain about results here at Chele Arena as Shukura have scored 11 goals to get 17 points from 8 games. The overall stats are 5-2-1 (wins-draws-losses). Two home wins in a row for Shukura bring valid hopes of a third.

Shukura's previous game was a Erovnuli Liga 2 match also played at home, ending 2-1 versus Guria. The home side are looking to build on that result. Heartbreak before that as Shukura lost 0-2 at Zugdidi's place.

The Shukura fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium, the tally being 11 in 8 matches. Shukura have only conceded 7 in these games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Guria form and stats

There's been little loot from Guria's travels as they have only collected 4 points from 8 away games. Guria, who have the most conceded goals (35) in Erovnuli Liga 2, only have 1 win to counter their 6 defeats and 1 draw. With the Guria losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking. With two straight losses from their last two away games, Guria are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.

Guria play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 1-2 to Shukura. A 2-4 loss hosting Norchi Dinamo before that.

We have done a similar check as we did with the hometeam, looking up recent matches where Guria played away with similar odds. This revealed three games. The visitors overcame the odds to win 0 times, 1 were draw and the home team won as expected 2 times.

There's been a serious shortage of goals from Guria's away games this season with only 4 goals from 8 matches. People interested in "over 2,5 goals" betting will like to know that Guria concede an average of more than 2,5 goals per away match all on their own.
