Zhenis vs Zhetysu TaldykorganPrediction, probable lineups, recent form & season stats

Zhenis are ninth in the Kazakh Premier League on twenty-three points from twenty rounds and play very closed home games: 0.8 goals scored and 0.8 conceded, only 21% of those matches passing two goals and a clean sheet in 51% of them. Their last six at home read 0-0, 1-1, 2-2, 0-0, 1-0 and 1-2. Zhetysu concede two a trip on the road and have lost four of their last six. The verdict: the call is between one and four goals in total. Five of the six recent meetings fall inside the range and the two combined average around 2.4 a game. The main risk is a goalless draw, already seen twice in Zhenis's last six at home. I read it around 80%. My take: a game of very few chances, but a goal should come.
