Team News

Zenit
Dynamo Makhachkala
  • Goalkeeper Mikhail Kerzhakov and defender Sergey Volkov have been recovering from long-term injuries and will miss out here.
  • Attacking midfielder Maksim Glushenkov is being treated for a serious hamstring injury and will probably not be available for selection next time out.
  • Midfielder Anton Krachkovsky missed last round’s match against FC Akron because of injury and is a doubt here.
  • Forward Gamid Agalarov and defender Jemal Tabidze sustained injuries last time out against the Tolyatti outfit and are also doubts for the visit to Saint Petersburg.
  • Defender Valentin Paltsev is suspended after reaching the yellow card limit in last round’s match.
  • Team’s captain Mutalip Alibekov is in the final stages of his knee injury recovery and should return to action soon.

Prediction

  • FC Zenit were held by Lokomotiv Moscow at home last time out and saw FC Krasnodar increasing their point gap at the top of the standings. Sergey Semak’s men are hoping to return to winning ways and are favourites to win here.
  • Dynamo Makhachkala have not won a single league match since the first day of September and will need to be extremely inspired in order to upset FC Zenit next time out.
