Russia vs Slovenia Prediction 27 March 2021

The second matchday of the qualification for the 2022 World Cup will begin in Sochi, where the Russia national team will compete against Slovenia.

Over the past decade, Russia have regularly entered European and continental tournaments, which testifies to their high level of skill. The new campaign kicked off predictably well for the Eagles, with a 3:1 away win over underdogs Malta.

At the same time, Slovenia rather unexpectedly took the upper hand over Croatia (1:0), thanks to which they temporarily found themselves in the second position in Group H. In general, the Slovenes are representatives of the second or third echelon of the European qualifiers. Their previous major achievement was reaching the 2010 World Cup.

We believe that Russia will control this match, while the Slovenes will go into deep defense and will try not to concede. In such a scenario, the teams will not please us with high performance.
