Team News

Fakel
Akron Togliatti
  • Defender Sergey Bryzgalov is suspended after being sent off in last round’s match against Dynamo Moscow.
  • Igor Yurganov missed last round’s match at the Russian capital due to a recent injury and is a doubt here.
  • Attacking midfielder Nikolay Giorgobiani is back in training with the team and will surely be available for selection next time out.
  • Russian defender Sergey Bozhin is undergoing an individual training programme in order to recover from a recent injury and is a doubt for Saturday’s match.
  • Midfielder Sherzond Esanov and forward Gilson Benchimol joined FC Akron this week. Both players haven’t yet been registered in the league and might not be available for selection here.
  • According to recent reports, there aren’t currently any injured players and therefore, apart from the recent signings, head coach Zaur Tedeev has a full squad to choose from next time out.
  • However, Abu-Said Eldarushev has been sold since last week's 3-2 loss at Lokomotiv Moscow.

Prediction

  • FC Fakel started the new season off on the wrong foot and are hoping to get their first points of the new campaign here. The Voronezh outfit will host FC Akron at their new stadium after the RFU licensed the ground.
  • FC Akron offered a close contest to Lokomotiv Moscow last time out, but ended up being defeated in their RPL debut. The visitors will be fishing for points here.
  • Judging by both sides’ recent performances, a draw is the most likely outcome next time out.
