Team News

Lokomotiv Moscow
Rubin Kazan
  • Alexey Batrakov sustained an ankle injury in last round’s match after a brutal tackle from an opponent, but according to Lokomotiv’s medical team, the injury doesn’t seem to be that serious and the midfielder should be match fit for the Russian Cup match next week against Dynamo Moscow.
  • Regardless of the severity of his injury, Alexey Batrakov will not feature here due to suspension. His fellow midfielder Dmitry Baranov is also suspended after reaching the yellow card limit in last round’s match at Saint Petersburg.
  • Brazilian defender Lucas Fasson has been recovering from a long-term injury and will miss out here.
  • Forward Marvin Cuni has fully recovered from his recent injury and will be available for selection next time out at Cherkizovo.
  • Defender Alexey Gritsaenko is undergoing treatment for a persistent injury and is a doubt out here.
  • Austrian midfielder Aleksandar Jukic will not feature here due to a long-term injury.

Prediction

  • Lokomotiv Moscow held FC Zenit to a draw last time out at Saint Petersburg and remained in the third position of the standings, five points behind league leaders’ FC Krasnodar. The absence of Alexey Batrakov and Dmitry Barinov will surely hinder the team here.
  • FC Rubin Kazan returned to winning ways last time out at Orenburg and are certainly looking forward to cause the Moscow outfit a massive upset next time out.
  • Despite the absence of two of their main players, Lokomotiv are slight favourites to get the three points on Saturday at Cherkizovo.
