There's been ups and downs for these two teams so far this season, occupying positions near the middle of the Premier League table so far. Here's the Ordabasy - Zhetysu latest:
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Ordabasy and Zhetysu.
It's time to recharge all electronic entertainment devices for Zhetysu, who are travelling more than 900 kilometers to play this game.

A strong away win for Ordabasy against Shakhter Karagandy the last match, as João Paulo were on target. Preceding that game was the home draw versus Taraz that ended 1-1.
Manager K. Tskhadadze felt very clever after João Paulo scored the winning goal against Shakhter Karagandy, having brought on that player as a substitute in the 60th minute.

Zhetysu form and stats
Zhetysu have only collected 6 points from their away games in the Premier League, after 2-0-5 (7 played). Three has not been a lucky number for Zhetysu as they have been defeated three times in a row since the Shakhter Karagandy match. With two straight losses from their last two away games, Zhetysu are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.
Zhetysu might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Kairat proved too strong as Zhetysu slumped to a 2-4 defeat in front of their own fans at Ortalıq Stadion Jetisu. Preceding that game, the 0-2 loss visiting Tobol's place.
A huge disappointment for Zhetysu in their last match (vs Kairat). Leading 2-0 the victory seemed almost certain, but a fascinating collapse turned everything around and in the end all was lost in a 2-4 defeat. A crazy, crazy match with lots of goals last time out for Zhetysu, as mentioned above. 6 goals in that one, will this match be as much fun?
The schedule is very tough for Zhetysu now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Premier League game at Shakhter Karagandy is waiting in only two days.
The attacking power of Zhetysu when travelling is not overwhelming with 4 goals scored from 7 league matches away. As for defending, Zhetysu rarely keep clean sheets as they have conceded 11 goals from these away matches.
