Cyprus vs Russia Prediction & Betting Tips - World Cup
by Nella Wagah | in World Cup Predictions
Russia missed a great chance to go top of Group H of their World Cup qualification campaign when they drew 0-0 with Croatia on Match Day 4. Placed second in the group with seven points, Russia will be traveling to bottom placed Cyprus for their next game. Cyprus have so far managed four points, and will hope to recover from their 3-0 loss to Malta, which saw them hit bottom of the pool. They have one win and four losses in the last five matches, and three clean sheets only in the last 10. They’ve failed to score in seven of their last 10 matches and seven of the 10 goals scored in their last five matches have come in the first half. In four of their last five matches, Cyprus have trailed at half time and they have conceded seven goals in their last two matches, in which they’ve also had a player sent off in each. The home team has failed to score in four of five matches in World Cup qualification while they’re winless in five games against Russia.
Russia are eyeing top spot and this is a game they should get three points in. The last time they faced Cyprus, they won 5-0, that being their fourth win in five matches against Cyprus. They have a good run in World Cup qualifiers, winning five of their last eight and only failing to score in one. Russia have actually scored two or more goals in five of the eight World Cup qualification games but both sides have scored in six of them. They’ve had four clean sheets in five meetings with Cyprus and will hope to add another here as they gun for a win. In their last five matches they’ve kept three clean sheets and have failed to score in just three of their last 10, which is a good run going to this clash. Six of their last 10 matches have, as a result produced over 2.5 goals.

Our Cyprus vs Russia Prediction
Cyprus may have home advantage, but they take to this game a very poor run. They’ve trailed at the break in four of their last five matches and they meet a Russia side with an impressive scoring run. Facing a side that has conceded seven goals in the last two matches means the Russians are clear favorites here. Go for Russia to lead in both halves.
