Football analysts in Russia are furious with their U21 squad. The team which is supposed to be the core source of the players for the senior national team is currently sitting at the penultimate fifth position in group 7 of qualifications for Euro 2017 in Poland. Russia U21 are miles away from their supposed main rivals in group Germany U21 and Austria U21. They will play their seventh match of the campaign against Faroe Islands U21 in Toftir.

Faroe Islands U21 have one of the worst youth teams in Europe.
They suffered seven defeats from seven matches with the goal difference of 2 – 23. They lost the first match against Russia U21 with 2 – 0 in November last year. The team suffered a real disaster in last round losing 1 – 6 to Finland U21 on home ground.
Russia U21 started the qualifying campaign in an awful way which caused in the change of the head coach as Nikolai Pisarev was appointed as a new manager of the national team in January this year. Since then, the team played a host of friendly matches in which they were mostly successful. The team managed to beat Tajikistan U21, Latvia U21, Estonia U21 and Moldova U21 before the new struggles in the qualifying campaign. Everyone believed Russia U21 could beat Azerbaijan U21 on home ground after a positive run in friendly matches, but the visitors managed to pull out a draw before Germans U21 took three points from Rostov three days later.
Russia U21 will desperately need a commanding victory to build up their morale ahead of the next campaign, as this one is obviously lost for Nikolai Pisarev men. There is no better opponent for boosting the motivation than Faroe Islands U21, so we believe the visitors will win the match with at least two goals difference which is paid at the odds of 9/20. You can also go with Russia U21 to cover two goals handicap as well as HT/FT win for the Russians.
