Team News

Spartak Moscow
Krylya Sovetov Samara
  • Attacking midfielder Mikhail Ignatov is suspended after receiving his fourth yellow card last time out at Grozny.
  • Goalkeeper Aleksandr Maksimenko missed last round’s match because of illness and is a doubt here.
  • Portuguese defender Tomás Tavares is undergoing an individual training programme in order to recover from a long-term knee injury and will not feature here.
  • Head coach Guillermo Abascal was sent off last time out after a scuffle with Bernard Berisha and will not lead the team next time out.
  • Brazilian midfielder Fernando Costanza will miss the upcoming visit to Moscow due to suspension.
  • Egor Ushakov, Vladimir Khubulov and Maskim Vityugov have been recovering from recent injuries and are likely to miss the last match before the long winter break.
  • Versatile forward Dmitry Tsypchenko remains sidelined while recovering from surgery and will not feature here.

Prediction

  • Spartak lost at Grozny against FK Akhmat and dropped a few places in the standings as a result of that. The Moscow outfit will need to be at their very best to win here.
  • Krylya Sovetov won at Sochi and extended their undefeated run to three matches. The Samara outfit have done a brilliant first half of the season and, on a good day, might cause Spartak a lot of trouble next time out.
  • Despite the visitors’ recent good run, a draw is the most likely outcome for Saturday’s match at Otkrytie Arena.
