Akron host Akhmat on 17 September 2026 at 18:30 in a Premier League fixture where the home side will chase their first win under Srdjan Blagojević. Toljatti have drawn five times in eight matches and held CSKA and Krasnodar to 2–2 and 1–1 respectively in recent weeks, but defensive injuries have left them leaking goals in four of the last five rounds. Akhmat arrived as summer reinforcements but have won only twice in eight league games, both at home. Away from Grozny they have three draws and one loss. The visitors' xG data shows they underperformed in six of eight matches, suggesting their attacking play lacks incisiveness despite squad depth.
Form and H2H
Akron's last ten at home: one win, six draws, three losses, averaging 1.00 goals for and 1.70 against. Akhmat away: three wins, four draws, three losses, averaging 1.50 goals for and 1.50 against. The head-to-head record across four meetings since August 2024 shows one draw, one Akron win (3–2), one Akhmat win (3–0), and another draw (1–1). Akron's profit on the draw is +16.51 at home; Akhmat's draw profit away is +7.49. Both teams have conceded in seven of eight league rounds this season.
Best bet
Akron do not lose. The home side have managed one defeat in their last six league matches and have held two top-tier opponents to draws. Akhmat's away record shows only one win in four matches on the road this season. Akron's defensive core is returning from injury and stabilised in the last round against Krasnodar. While Blagojević's team remain winless, they have shown enough resilience and recent form to avoid defeat at home against a Grozny side that has underperformed relative to their summer investment.
Odds to watch
Both teams have scored in four of the last five league matches for each side. Akron have conceded in all but one of their home games; Akhmat have leaked goals in seven of eight rounds. The visitors will have Sadulayev back from illness and Ndong restored to centre-back after injury, adding attacking threat on the left flank and solidity in defence. A match featuring two teams prone to mistakes and capable of creating chances suggests both sides will find the net.
