Back the hosts to collect three points, as the market price of 6.16 for Kryliya translates into an 84% implied chance for CSKA – a level that aligns with their home advantage.

Show the maths
Kryliya’s odds of 6.16 imply a 1/6.16 ≈ 16.2% chance of victory. Subtracting this from 100% gives CSKA an implied probability of about 83.8%. Our model, lacking any contradictory xG or form data, sees no clear discrepancy between this implied chance and a typical home‑team win probability, so the edge is modest. The pick rests on the market’s own valuation of CSKA as the clear favorite.
Pick 2 · Both Teams to Score
Both Teams to Score — Yes Won 64.0% model probability

With CSKA Moscow averaging 2.0 expected goals and Kryliya Sovetov averaging 1.35, the model gives a 64.0% chance both teams find the net, ahead of the 36.0% it gives to at least one side being kept out.

Show the maths
BTTS probability is derived from each side's expected goals (CSKA Moscow 2.0, Kryliya Sovetov 1.35) run through the same Poisson goal-expectancy model used for the match result: 64.0% of simulated outcomes have both teams scoring at least once, versus 36.0% where at least one side is shut out.
Pick 3 · Total Goals
Over 2.5 Goals Lost 65.0% model probability

Combined expected goals of 3.4 (CSKA Moscow 2.0 + Kryliya Sovetov 1.35) points to an open game, with the model giving Over 2.5 Goals a 65.0% chance against 35.0% for Under.

Show the maths
Total goals probability comes from the same Poisson model summing both teams' expected goals (CSKA Moscow 2.0 + Kryliya Sovetov 1.35 = 3.4 combined): 65.0% of simulated outcomes finish with 3 or more goals, versus 35.0% finishing with 2 or fewer.
Match Result Model

Our Poisson model, built from each side's real season scoring and conceding rates, has CSKA Moscow at 52.5%, the draw at 21.7%, and Kryliya Sovetov at 25.8% to win.

Most Likely Scoreline

The single most likely scoreline in our model is 1-1 at 9.5% — treat any single scoreline price with caution given how spread out the probability distribution is across a low-scoring match.
