Russia – Saudi Arabia World Cup Prediction

Russia as the host team kicks off at what is the biggest selection event in the world. The long awaited competition will begin and Russia has increased responsibilities. After the “failure” that was the last competition organized by Russia (Confederation Cup), the pressure increases and much for this test. In this first game, at the Luzhniki Stadium, Russia faces what is, in theory, the least-rated of this group. Therefore, winning is not the only goal. With home selection against Saudi Arabia and Egypt in the first two games and with the goals factor being the preponderant criterion of tie-breaker, Russia will try to win and score as many goals as possible. A slip against Saudi Arabia could be too compromising, taking into account that the last match is with the most rated selection, Uruguay. For Saudi Arabia there is nothing to lose, on the contrary. The pressure is practically nonexistent in this group A, so the surprise may knock on the door. Can Russia get in on the right foot in Moscow?
STATISTICS AND IMPORTANT DATA

This 2018 World Cup is very important for Russia. See the set that the Russians put in preparation for this race.

They faced the best teams in the world, including Brazil (0-3), France (1-3), Spain (3-3) and Argentina (0-1).

As we can see Russia failed to live up to these top selections. What effects will this have? that’s what we’ll see.

Saudi Arabia held 9 home games, winning 3 wins, 1 draw and 5 losses. Negative balance.

Saudi Arabia comes from a qualifying phase in the Asian continent, where the level is very low, compared to Europe and South America. His cast is also the most modest in this group A.

Prediction Russia – Saudi Arabia

Russia is, theoretically, the second most-rated player in this group A. The quality it has is superior both to Egypt and Saudi Arabia, second only to Uruguay. Russia will depend heavily on the points they make especially in the first two rounds, as the match in the third match will be with Uruguay. Therefore, winning is the minimum goal, as it will be important to win by more than the minimum margin. Victory of Russia.
