Rubin Kazan vs Nizhny Novgorod: prediction & betting odds 16 Mar 2025

The Matchday 21 clash in the Russian Premier League between Rubin and Pari NN will take place on March 16 at the Ak Bars Arena in Kazan. Rubin vs. Pari NN: prediction, betting odds, and statistics.

Rubin

In their first match after the winter break, the Kazan side suffered a 1-2 defeat away to Akhmat. However, they bounced back in the next round, defeating Spartak with the same scoreline. Notably, Mirlind Daku scored a brace in that match but was sent off in the second half. Rashid Rakhimov's team is positioned mid-table, equidistant from the top three and the relegation playoff zone.

  • In their last six Premier League matches, Rubin has suffered only one defeat (3 wins and 2 draws).
  • Both teams scored in 6 of Rubin's last 8 RPL games.
  • At least three goals were scored in the club's last five league matches.   

Predicted lineup for Rubin (5-4-1)

Yevgeny Staver – Dmitry Kabutov, Ruslan Bezrukov, Yegor Teslenko, Igor Vujacic, Ilya Rozhkov – Veldin Hodja, Ugochukwu Iwu, Bogdan Yochich, Dardan Shabanhadzhay – Mirlind Daku.

Due to suspension, forward Mirlind Daku and midfielder Ugochukwu Iwu are unavailable.

Pari NN

Viktor Goncharenko's team played both of their March league matches at home, with mixed results. They first defeated Akron 2-1, but then suffered a heavy 0-3 loss to Krasnodar. The win over Tolyatti remains their only victory in the last six Premier League matches (1 draw and 4 losses). The team is in 11th place, just one point ahead of the nearest opponent in the relegation playoff zone. Also noteworthy is that Pari NN has the worst defense in the current RPL, having conceded 38 goals.

  • At least two goals have been scored in 11 of the club's last 12 league games.
  • At least one team failed to score in 6 of Pari NN's last 8 Premier League matches.
  • Nizhny Novgorod has conceded in 20 of their last 24 away RPL matches.  

Predicted lineup for Pari NN (3-4-2-1)

Nikita Medvedev – Sven Karic, Stanislav Magkeev, Nikita Kakkoev – Alexander Ektov, Luka Tichich, Camilo Castillo, Nikolai Kalinsky – Vyacheslav Grulev, Juan Boselli – Alexander Koksharov.

Rubin vs. Pari NN: Match Prediction

In the upcoming match, I favor the hosts. Rubin is in much better form, having collected 10 more points than their opponents. Additionally, they defeated Nizhny Novgorod on their turf in the first round with a 4-2 scoreline. Rubin also retains a slim chance of finishing in the top three. Meanwhile, Pari NN is focused solely on retaining their Premier League status. Viktor Goncharenko's side concedes too many goals and scores too few.

Nizhny Novgorod has only secured five victories in this championship, with four of them against opponents currently below them in the standings and one against Akron, who are in the lower half. Pari NN has played four away matches against top-8 clubs and lost all, three times by at least a two-goal margin. Therefore, my prediction is a Rubin victory.
