Julija Stoliarenko vs Chelsea Chandler Prediction: Both Eager to Win

On the night of October 1 to 2 in Las Vegas, another UFC Fight Night tournament will take place. In one of the preliminary rounds Lithuanian fighter Julija Stoliarenko will meet an American Chelsea Chandler.

The fight will take place in the featherweight division. None of the fighters in the top 15 of the official UFC rankings of the division. In the bookmaker's betting odds the favorite is Julia.

Stoliarenko started in the UFC with three losses in a row, but in her last bout, she finally won. She beat Jessica-Rose Clark (11-8) in the first round with her favorite armbar.

Chelsea Chandler is making her debut in the strongest league in the world. Previously, she only competed at Invicta. In the women's league, Chelsea has won four straight girls' fights with records of 2-1, 3-0, 4-2 and 4-2.

The odds for this fight are pretty logical and similar to the truth - Stoliarenko is more experienced, has fought more serious opponents in her career, and her last win certainly made her believe in herself again. She needs one more success if she wants to stay in the UFC.

That said, Chandler doesn't look like an opponent who won't miss a single takedown, which Julia will undoubtedly be looking for. We know what she'll be looking for in a parterre - another armbar (she's achieved all of her early victories that way).
