Team News

Zenit
Nizhny Novgorod
  • Versatile defender Danil Krugovoy picked up a knock in last round’s match at Cherkizovo and is a doubt here.
  • Serbian defender Strahinja Erakovic is suspended after receiving his fourth yellow card of the season last time out against Lokomotiv Moscow.
  • Vyacheslav Karavaev has been recovering from a persistent injury and is likely to miss Saturday’s match.
  • Midfielder Mamadou Maiga is suspended after reaching the yellow card limit in last round’s match against FC Ural.
  • Defender Ibrokhimkhalil Yuldoshev remains sidelined because of a persistent injury and is a doubt for the upcoming visit to Saint Petersburg.

Prediction

  • FC Zenit lost at Cherkizovo last time out and are no longer the league leaders. Despite last round’s upset against Lokomotiv, Sergey Semak’s men are favourites to return to winning ways here.
  • FC Pari NN returned to wins last time out against FC Ural and are comfortably sitting in mid-table after 17 matches. On a good day, the Nizhny Novgorod outfit might cause the current Russian champions a major upset.
