Team News

Zenit
Ural
  • Russian defender Dmitry Chistyakov has been recovering from a persistent injury on his back, but he is likely to return to training next week.
  • Winger Andrey Mostovoy remains sidelined because of a muscle injury and will not feature here.
  • Defender Rodrigão is undergoing treatment for a long-term hamstring injury and will miss Saturday’s match.
  • Eric Bicfalvi is once again injured. The former Romania international’s injury got worse during the match against Spartak Moscow two weeks ago and now will be out for an undisclosed period of time.
  • Midfielder Yuri Gazinsky is undergoing an individual training programme in order to recover from a long-term injury and will miss the upcoming visit to Saint Petersburg.
  • Defenders Artem Mamin and Egor Filipenko are out due to persistent injuries and are likely to miss out here as well.
  • Brazilian forward Guilherme Schettine is again available for selection after missing last time out due to suspension.

Prediction

  • FC Zenit pulled off an important win last time out at Moscow and are extremely motivated ahead of Saturday’s match. Sergey Semak’s men are slight favourites to win here.
  • FC Ural won at Kaliningrad last time out and remain undefeated after five league matches. Viktor Goncharenko’s men are going through an excellent moment of form and might cause FC Zenit a major upset next time out.
  • Despite the home side's slight upper hand, FC Ural might grab a point at Krestovsky next time out.
