Team News

FC Krasnodar
Fakel
  • Brazilian Vítor Tormena is suspended after being sent off in last round’s match against FC Zenit.
  • Midfielder Alexander Chernikov is also suspended after receiving his twelfth yellow card of the season last time out.
  • Alexander Koksharov has been recovering from recent surgery and will only return to action next month. Defender Sergey Petrov, on the other hand, has been struggling with a persistent injury and is a doubt here.
  • Midfielder Andrey Mendel remains sidelined because of a recent injury and will not feature here.
  • Sergey Bozhin and Vyacheslav Yakimov weren’t included in last round’s squad for the match against FC Rostov and the club have not officially informed why the players have been left out.
  • Defender Nikolay Poyarkov has been recovering from a persistent injury and will miss Friday’s visit to Krasnodar.

Prediction

  • FC Krasnodar were defeated at home by FC Zenit last time out and are now four points behind the league leaders with seven matches to go. Despite last round’s upset, Murad Musaev’s men are favourites to get the three points here.
  • FC Fakel lost their last couple of matches and are now dangerously close to the playoff relegation zone. The Voronezh outfit will be fishing for points next time out.
