Form and H2H

Enisey average 1.0 goal at home and concede 1.8 per game. Arsenal Tula average 0.9 goals away and concede 1.8 per match. In the last ten meetings, the sides have split wins: Enisey won 2–0 at home in November 2024 and 1–0 in March 2023, while Arsenal Tula won 2–0 away in August 2023 and 2–1 away in August 2024. The most recent clash ended 2–2 in August 2022. Arsenal Tula sit tenth in the table with 13 points after 11 rounds and have failed to win any of their last ten away games. Enisey recently lost 0–2 to Neftekhimik and 0–4 to Rotor, the latter with ten men after a red card, though they drew 1–1 with Druzhba in the Russian Cup before progressing on penalties.

Best Bet

Enisey over 1 goal is the pick. The home side average 1.2 goals per match at the Tsentrralny Stadium and have fired at least ten shots on target in eight of their last ten home games. Arsenal Tula's away record is fragile: opponents have scored against them in nine of their last ten road matches, and they concede an average of 2.4 goals per game away from home. One goal secures the bet with a push; a second is possible but not guaranteed given Enisey's recent low-scoring home displays, which averaged 2.2 goals across five matches.
