Team News

Nizhny Novgorod
Spartak Moscow
  • Midfielders Konstantin Maradishvili, Mamadou Maiga and Ilya Zhigulev have been recovering from long-term injuries and will not feature here.
  • Defender Dmitry Tikhy remains sidelined because of a persistent injury and will not be available for selection next time out.
  • Russian midfielder Nail Umyarov is suspended after receiving his fourth yellow card of the season in last round’s match against FC Krasnodar.
  • Defender Nikita Chernov has been recovering from a recent metatarsal fracture and will miss Sunday’s match at Nizhny Novgorod.

Prediction

  • FC Pari NN seem more confident after the arrival of their new head coach Viktor Goncharenko. Their midweek win in the Russian Cup at Krasnodar will surely offer the team plenty of motivation to get the three points here.
  • Spartak were trashed by FC Krasnodar last weekend and are already 11 points behind league leaders after just 12 matches. A win is mandatory for the Moscow outfit on Sunday.
  • Judging by both sides’ recent performances, a draw is the most likely outcome here.
