Ario Eslamshahr vs Darya Babol tips and predictions

Darya Babol can hold off Ario Eslamshahr

This isn't a confident view but the short price for Ario Eslamshahr has made them a horrible bet. Darya Babol don't look likely to get the job done but they can put up some resistance. Building on the strong rearguard performances of both sides, a goalless stalemate is the pick but it's certainly not something to go crazy about.

There have been some notable displays in defence by both sides. Having created something of a fortress at home, Ario Eslamshahr have conceded only 1 goal in their last 6 matches and Darya Babol have only conceded 0.8 goals per game on average in their last 8 away matches.

Don't be disappointed if one of these sides tries to lock this game down due to the favouritism for Ario Eslamshahr. The No BTTS bet would be sensible. And if you're interested in the goal line, it's under 2.5 goals in this match considering how that market has been priced up.

Ario Eslamshahr have drawn 7 of their last 15 matches on their own soil. They drew 1-1 with Khooshe Talaee last Thursday. Darya Babol have drawn 8 of their last 19 matches on the road. They couldn't put any distance between themselves and Mes Shahr Babak last Thursday. To wrap this up there is nothing to like about the home or away win odds, so the draw warrants consideration. Deadlock is the pick after what looks set to be a close encounter.
