Team News

Nizhny Novgorod
FC Krasnodar
  • Russian midfielder Konstantin Kuchaev sustained an injury in last round’s match at Kaliningrad and is a doubt here.
  • Defender Kirill Gotsuk was sent off in last time out against FC Baltika, but the RFU CDC are yet to decide whether he will be suspended or not.
  • Ilya Zhigulev has been recovering from a recent surgery and will be out for an undisclosed period of time.
  • Midfielder Nikolay Kalinskiy is again available for selection after missing last time out because of suspension.
  • Kirill Gotsuk has been suspended for three matches starting from this weekend.
  • Russia international Nikita Krivtsov picked up an injury last time out at Cherkizovo and is a doubt for the upcoming visit to Nizhny Novgorod.
  • Defender Lucas Olaza and winger Olakunle Olusegun are again available for selection after missing last round’s visit to Cherkizovo due to suspension.
  • Forward Alexander Koksharov has been recovering from a recent surgery and will not feature here.
  • Sergey Petrov remains sidelined because of a persistent injury and is a doubt for Saturday’s match.

Prediction

  • FC Pari NN were outclassed at Kaliningrad last time out and are surely looking forward to return to winning ways when they take on FC Krasnodar on Saturday. Sergey Yuran’s men have only one win in their last three home matches and will need to pull off something special in order to get the three points here.
  • FC Krasnodar failed to get anything better than a draw last time out at Cherkizovo and are yet to win a match after the winter break. Despite recent negatives, Murad Musaev’s men are slight favourites to win next time out.
