Team News

Spartak Moscow
Rubin Kazan
  • Forward Alexander Sobolev missed the Russian Cup match at Kaliningrad in midweek due to illness and is a doubt here.
  • Serbian defender Srdjan Babic and Russian midfielder Daniil Zorin are undergoing treatment for persistent injuries and are likely to miss Sunday’s match.
  • According to the club’s press attaché, Dmitry Zelenov, defender Alexis Duarte is also sidelined because of illness and is a doubt next time out.
  • Attacking midfielder Valentín Vada is back in training after recovering from a recent injury and will be available for selection here.
  • Serbian winger Nikola Cumic will not feature here due to a long-term injury.
  • Alexander Zotov is again available for selection after missing last round’s match against FC Rostov due to suspension.

Prediction

  • Spartak defeated FC Krasnodar last weekend and extended their undefeated run in the league to five matches. Despite the midweek setback in the Russian Cup, the Moscow outfit are slight favourites to win here.
  • FC Rubin Kazan defeated FC Rostov last time out and have also extended their undefeated run to five matches. On a good day, Rashid Rakhimov’s men might cause Spartak a major upset next time out.
