The hosts Moskva saw competitive action as recent as three days ago, playing in the Europa League. That game was an away game at Dinamo Zagreb, so at least Moskva are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

Ural have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1700 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Ural form and stats

There's been little loot from Ural's travels as they have only collected 6 points from 8 away games in the Premier League. Ural, who have the fewest scored goals (4) away in Premier League, only have 1 win to counter their 4 defeats and 3 draws.

Ural play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 1-5 to Zenit (placed 1st). Before that, Ural secured a home win against Sochi with the score 1-0.

Ural lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 1-5 beating and focus on this one.
