Altay vs Aktobe: Team News and Expert Analysis
The club from Ust-Kamenogorsk ranked third in the local second division but earned promotion to the expanding Premier League. However, they remain quite weak at this level, having won only once in the first round, alternating draws and defeats in the other matches. Yet, in the most recent rounds, against Tobol and Zhetysu, they finally managed to secure victories. In the cup, on the contrary, their performance had been better—but they recently lost to Ordabasy.
The team from Aktobe finished fifth with 43 points, missing out on European competition. So far, they have not improved, but there are still chances if they perform well in the second half of the season and finish at least fourth. This requires avoiding a decline, as they recently lost to both Zhetysu and Astana.
The newcomer averages just 0.71 goals scored and considerably more conceded, 1.06 per game. Tarkovic's side boasts a positive ratio—with 1.29 goals scored and 1.06 conceded per match.
