Team News

Fakel
Zenit
  • Sergey Tashuev left FC Fakel last week due to family reasons and the Voronezh outfit appointed Igor Cherevchenko as their new head coach.
  • Forward Evgeny Markov sustained a serious ankle injury in the match against Krylya Sovetov and will be out for an undisclosed period of time.
  • Defender Vasily Cherov picked up a knock in last round’s match at Sochi and is a doubt here.
  • Defender Vyacheslav Karavaev picked up an injury in last round’s match against Dynamo Moscow and is a doubt here.
  • Former Russia international Mário Fernandes has been recovering from a recent surgery and is likely to miss the rest of the season.
  • Douglas Santos has been struggling with a recurrent injury, but is likely to return to the starting line-up on Monday.

Prediction

  • FC Fakel have not won a single match since early March and are now in a perilous position in the league table. The Voronezh outfit cannot afford to lose here.
  • FC Zenit lost their last couple of league matches and are now sharing the first place in the standings with FC Krasnodar. Despite recent setbacks, Sergey Semak’s men are slight favourites to get the three points next time out.
