Nizhny Novgorod vs Lokomotiv Moscow: prediction & betting odds 2 August 2025

The Matchday 3 clash of the MIR Russian Premier League between Pari NN and Lokomotiv will be held on August 2 at the Akhmat Arena in Grozny. Pari NN vs. Lokomotiv: prediction and betting odds, statistics.

Pari NN

The Nizhny Novgorod team suffered defeat in their second match of the season. Following a 3-0 thrashing by Krasnodar, Alexey Shpilevsky's side lost 2-0 away to Krylia Sovetov. This marks their third consecutive loss in the RPL, during which Pari NN has failed to score. Furthermore, Nizhny Novgorod has conceded in six consecutive Premier League games. The club currently sits in 15th place in the standings.

  • The team has not scored more than one goal in 12 of their last 13 league matches.
  • The club has failed to win 11 of their last 13 RPL matches (2 draws, 9 losses).
  • At least one goal has been scored in both halves in 5 of Pari NN's last 6 matches in this tournament.

Predicted lineup for Pari NN (4-4-2)

Nikita Medvedev – Maksim Shnaptsov, Viktor Aleksandrov, Sven Karic, Juan Camilo Castillo – Mamadou Maiga, Olakunle Olusegun, Luka Tichich, Daniil Lesovoy – Juan Boselli, Thiago Vecino.

Defender Alexander Ektov is injured.

Lokomotiv

The Moscow club has topped the table after two consecutive victories. After thrashing newly-promoted Sochi 3-0 in the first round, the Muscovites defeated the reigning champions 2-1, marking Mikhail Galaktionov's 100th match in charge with a win. Notably, Lokomotiv is the only team yet to drop points at the start of the tournament, extending their unbeaten run in the Premier League to eight matches (5 wins, 3 draws).

  • The Railwaymen have conceded in 5 of their last 7 RPL games.
  • Lokomotiv has defeated their upcoming opponent in 7 of their last 8 encounters in this tournament (1 draw).
  • The team has scored exactly 1 or 2 goals in 5 of their last 7 league matches.

Predicted lineup for Lokomotiv (4-4-2)

Anton Mitryushkin – Alexander Silyanov, Maksim Nenakhov, Cesar Montes, Yevgeny Morozov – Dmitry Barinov, Alexey Batrakov, Artem Karpukas, Zelimkhan Bakaev – Nikolay Komlichenko, Alexander Rudenko.

Match Prediction: Pari NN vs. Lokomotiv

Pari NN has shown promising moments in the early rounds, but they have struggled to maintain their performance throughout the entire match. This is particularly evident in the second halves, where Alexey Shpilevsky's side has conceded 4 of their 5 goals. This factor is likely to play a significant role against Lokomotiv, who have demonstrated their ability to pressurize opponents at the start of the season. It's important to note that Lokomotiv has never lost to Pari NN in the RPL (7 wins, 1 draw), with only one match in this span featuring fewer than two goals.

Nizhny Novgorod has conceded 5 goals in two rounds, with only Sochi performing worse (7). Moreover, the club has failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 8 league matches. Lokomotiv's defense also lacks reliability, having conceded in 5 of their last 7 RPL games. However, the Moscow team's attack compensates for their defensive shortcomings, with a goal-scoring streak of 8 matches in the Premier League.

I believe the nominal visitors will not lose in a high-scoring match. My prediction: Lokomotiv not to lose and Total Over 1.5
