Akron Tolyatti
- Akron Tolyatti have won 3, drawn 1 and lost 1 of their last 5 matches in the Premier League 2025/2026.
- Zaur Tedeyev has done a fantastic job since taking over the club in December 2023, instilling an aggressive, direct approach where Akron play a 4-3-3 or 4-1-4-1 formation and press with intensity.
- With pace down the flanks, a target man in the centre and lots of energy to press the opponents, Akron attempt to win the ball back quickly and are generally quite free-flowing in their style.
- Akron Tolyatti are in 8th place in the Premier League 2025/2026 with 21 points from 16 games, whilst Nizhny Novgorod are 16th and bottom with a measly 8 points from 16 matches. This Akron Tolyatti vs FC Nizhny Novgorod prediction highlights the significant difference in form and league position between the two teams.
Nizhny Novgorod
- Nizhny Novgorod have lost 3 and drawn 2 of their last 5 Premier League 2025/2026 matches.
- Nizhny Novgorod are the complete opposite, setting up with a compact, vertical shape and lots of structure, as they look to catch teams off guard with their vertical counter-press.
- The visitors have lost all 7 away matches in the Premier League 2025/2026 this season, scoring just 1 goal, and they head to an Akron side who are unbeaten in two at home, having won 1 and drawn 1. Given these stats, our Akron Tolyatti vs FC Nizhny Novgorod betting tips would strongly favor the hosts.
Head-to-Head
In a fixture split after two meetings between the two clubs, Akron Tolyatti will be looking to claim the scalp of Nizhny Novgorod on their home ground for the first time.
Key Players
- Gilson Tavares has found his form for Akron, netting 4 of their 9 goals in their last 5 games.
- Dmitriy Pestryakov is their top scorer in the league with 5 goals in 15 appearances.
- Juan Manuel Boselli is Nizhny Novgorod’s danger man, scoring 5 times in 14 league appearances this term, but the rest of the team have found it hard to score.
Betting Insights
- Akron are favorites at 1.96, with Nizhny Novgorod priced at 4.12 to win.
- With Nizhny’s goal-scoring troubles and lack of away success, under 2.5 goals at 2.02 could be a good play, as the visitors have scored just 0.14 goals per game away from home. The Akron Tolyatti vs FC Nizhny Novgorod betting tips also recommend exploring low goal markets due to these attacking issues.
Prediction
But with Akron having won three in a row, their league position and Nizhny’s woeful form away, the home side are favored to secure the win and take the 3 points on Saturday.
