Team News

FC Rostov
PFC Sochi
  • Russian midfielder Daniil Utkin has been recovering from a persistent injury and is a doubt out here.
  • Goalkeeper Sergey Pesjakov sustained a head injury in last time out against Dynamo Moscow, but will surely recover in time for the upcoming match.
  • Aleksey Mironov missed the last couple of matches for undisclosed reasons and is a doubt next time out.
  • Venezuelan forward Sergio Córdova is again available for selection after missing last time out due to suspension.
  • Forward Alejandro Cabeza left the club and returned to Ecuador to join second tier side Nueve de Octubre.
  • Goalkeeper Nikita Goylo and defender Moussa Sissako will not feature here because of long-term injuries.

Prediction

  • FC Rostov are extremely motivated after last round’s solid win against Dynamo Moscow and are favourites to get the three points here. Valery Karpin’s men remain undefeated in the league after the winter break.
  • PFC Sochi held CSKA Moscow to a draw last time out and are also undefeated in the league under new head coach Robert Moreno. The Sochi outfit remain at the bottom of the standings with just 14 points from 21 matches and are almost forced to win here.
