Recent results
SKA Khabarovsk's last 2 matches have been polar opposites with a 2-0 home win over Neftekhimik Nizhnekamsk followed by a 3-1 defeat on the road to FC Chelyabinsk.
Style and scorers
Mikhail Semenov has SKA Khabarovsk leaning into a high-tempo, flank-heavy press, pushing his flanks forward to press opponents in wide areas, but that does leave plenty of space behind the wide areas. The one goal in the FNL 2026/2027 that SKA Khabarovsk have scored was a goal by Mikheil Gorelishvili, while Ramazan Gadzhimuradov has chipped in with 2 of their 6 goals in the last 5 matches.
FC Ufa are the value bet here
SKA Khabarovsk are yet to win away from home in the FNL 2026/2027 after 1 match, conceding 3.00 goals per game on their travels so far. FC Ufa are unbeaten at home with 1 win from 1 and have scored 3 goals on their home turf already.
The oddsmakers have this match as a home-leaning contest, and FC Ufa look the sharper side in their home patch and they will get the result against an unsteady SKA Khabarovsk.
A 2-0 or 3-0 type home result seems to fit the form, the playing styles and the head-to-head, in which Ufa won their most recent home match 3-0 in FNL 2022/2023.
- The home odds on the market are also on the conservative side with FC Ufa at 2.38 and Over 2.5 goals at 2.15, so those look the plays.
- The BTTS No wager is also favorable at 1.93, which fits a scenario in which Ufa control the game and keep SKA quiet.
