Team News

FC Rostov
Lokomotiv Moscow
  • Midfielder Alexey Mironov sustained an injury against FK Akhmat last time out and is a doubt here.
  • Apart from the Russian midfielder, head coach Valery Karpin has a full squad to choose from ahead of Saturday’s match.
  • Midfielder Artem Karpukas has been struggling with a persistent injury and is a doubt for the upcoming visit to Rostov-on-Don.
  • Versatile defender Stanislav Magkeev is undergoing treatment for long-term knee injury and will only return to action after the winter break.

Prediction

  • FC Rostov returned to winning ways last time out against FK Akhmat after a long streak of negative results. On a good day, Valery Karpin’s men might cause a major upset to the Moscow outfit here.
  • Lokomotiv failed to get anything better than a draw from Moscow’s derby last weekend, but extended their undefeated run to four matches.
  • Despite the visitor’s slight upper hand, a draw is the most likely outcome for Saturday’s match.
