Team News

Dinamo Moscow
Lokomotiv Moscow
  • Midfielder Daniil Fomin is suspended after being sent off in the first match of the season against FC Fakel.
  • Roberto Fernández, Luis Chávez and Denis Makarov missed last round’s match due minor injuries and are doubts for the upcoming derby.
  • Defender Fabián Balbuena is on international duty with Paraguay at the Olympics and will not feature here.
  • Winger Sergey Pinyaev picked up a knock in last round’s match against FC Akron, but should be ready for selection next time out.
  • Russia U21 international goalkeeper Daniil Khudyakov left the club to join Sturm Graz this week.
  • Although Pinyaev sustained a minor knock last time out, head coach Mikhail Galaktyonov will probably have a full squad to choose from ahead of the Moscow derby.

Prediction

  • Dynamo pulled off a solid home win over FC Fakel last time out and are slight favourites to get the three points in Saturday's derby.
  • Lokomotiv had to work hard in order to defeat newcomers FC Akron last weekend, but will surely offer a close contest to Dynamo here.
  • Despite the home side's slight upper hand, a draw is the most likely outcome for the Moscow derby.
