Astrakhan aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 237 league minutes without a goal. H. Agalarov was the last player to find the net.

Astrakhan play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 0-4 to Orenburg (placed 1st). Volgar Astrakhan lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above.

Something did not go right in the pre-game preparations.

A 0-1 defeat away at Krasnodar II before that.
