An important duel in the bottom section of the FNL, with both Fakel and Shinnik experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 18th and the visitors in 21st place.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Fakel form and stats
Fakel, who have the fewest scored goals (4) at home in FNL, have collected 11 points from their FNL home games so far after 2-5-3. Fakel has five consecutive draws when playing at home, an interesting stat.
A draw after 90 minutes last time out for Fakel, who played 1-1 against Spartak Moskva II. That match was also played at this venue (Central'nyi Stadion Profsoyuzov). A defeat was the result before that one, 1-2 away at Volgar Astrakhan.
The manager V. Beschastnikh will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Torpedo Moskva in only four days.
Fakel have scored 4 goals here in 10 league matches, a depressing statistic. It's worth mentioning that 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. From these home matches, Fakel have conceded only 6 goals.
Shinnik form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Shinnik, who have the most conceded goals (37) in FNL, so far with only 1 point returning home. The records show 0-1-8 (win-draw-lose).
Shinnik had fun at their own home (Central'nyi Stadion Profsoyuzov) last time out, beating Volgar Astrakhan 2-1. E. Nizamutdinov and P. Ignatovich scored. Prior to that match, the Shinnik manager A. Pobegalov faced defeat when travelling to Krylya Sovetov and losing 1-4.
A new game in only four days for Shinnik, the FNL home match versus Spartak Moskva II. Busy days.
The attacking power of Shinnik when travelling is not overwhelming with 7 goals scored from 9 league matches away. It's worth mentioning that 5 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. The opposition has been scoring high and low on Shinnik's goalkeeper in away games this season, as they have let in 25 goals in 9 travels.
Head 2 Head
Head-2-head stats last five meetings: two - one - two (Fakel wins - draws - Shinnik wins). As for goals, three matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), two had two or less.Top Goalscorers
