Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Kyzyl-Zhar in 6th and Kaspiy in 8th place.

Insights:
  • Kyzyl-Zhar have scored at least twice as many goals as they have conceded at home.
  • Kaspiy have yet to win a game away.

We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!

Kaspiy play their home games on grass, while this game is played on artifical turf. Recent stats for Kaspiy when playing on artifical turf are 2 wins, 1 draw and 6 defeats from nine matches. They have scored 8 goals and conceded 12 times in these games.

These teams have little in common geographically as Kaspiy have to travel 2500 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Kyzyl-Zhar form and stats

Kyzyl-Zhar have played 4 Premier League games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 2-1-1 (wins-draws-losses).

The fans are hoping that Kyzyl-Zhar will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the Premier League game against Arys (placed 11th). Preceding that game was the home draw versus Kairat that ended 1-1.

The defeat against Arys was especially painful as the deciding goal against was scored two minutes into stoppage time (by S. Zivkovic).

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Kyzyl-Zhar have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found six matches with the results: Won two, drawn three and lost one.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Kyzyl-Zhar as they are travelling to their away game against Tobol in the Premier League. That match is four days after this one.

A decent goal production from Kyzyl-Zhar in their home games so far, with 7 goals from 4 league matches. From these home matches, Kyzyl-Zhar have conceded only 3 goals.

Kaspiy form and stats

As the visiting team in Premier League matches, Kaspiy have produced an overall stat of 0-1-3 so far.

Kaspiy's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Ordabasy that finished 0-0. Preceding that game, the 1-2 loss visiting Atyrau's place.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Kaspiy playing away and similar expectations, we found six relevant matches. Results were two Kaspiy wins, one draw and three defeats.

A quick return to home after this game, as Kaspiy are hosting Shakhter Karagandy in the Premier League only four days away.

Kaspiy find the net regularly in their away games. 4 goals from 4 away fixtures in the league. The Kaspiy manager S. Blagojević has some worries about the defense as 8 goals have been conceded in these travels.
