Krylia Sovetov vs. Pari NN: Match Prediction
Krylia Sovetov traditionally perform confidently at home against Pari NN. In the RPL, the teams have played 4 matches in Samara, and the visitors have not won any of them (1 draw, 3 losses). It's also worth noting the stable home form of the Samara team against opponents from the lower half of the table: last season, they did not lose in 5 of 7 matches against teams ranked 9th to 16th.
Pari NN has long struggled against teams of similar level. In 13 of 16 away matches against teams in the lower half of the championship, the team failed to win (3 draws, 10 losses). The previous away victory in the Premier League occurred back in November last year.
Considering all this, my prediction: Krylia Sovetov with a handicap (0)
