Shakhtar Karaganda II vs Astana II

Shakhtar Karaganda II hosts Astana II in a Kazakhstan League 2 clash on Wednesday, with the visitors entering as slight favorites. The average odds from 13 bookmakers place Astana II at 1.83 to secure an away win, while Shakhtar Karaganda II sits at 3.02 for a home victory. A draw is priced at 4.3, suggesting the match could be more competitive than the odds imply.

Both teams will be looking to build momentum in the second tier, with Astana II likely carrying more expectations given their slightly stronger odds. However, Shakhtar Karaganda II’s home advantage could play a role in leveling the contest. The relatively high draw odds indicate bookmakers see a decisive result as more probable, though surprises are always possible in lower-league fixtures.
