The visiting Chertanovo side should be favourites in this visit to Fakel, as the away team holds a 15 point advantage from their 35 league games this season.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Fakel form and stats

Fakel have collected 23 points from their home games so far after 5-8-4. The last three games played by Fakel, regardless of arena, have all ended draws.

The home team returns to Central'nyi Stadion Profsoyuzov after sharing the points with Tambov on their last time out; the FNL game ended 0-0. The points were shared before that, a home game that ended 1-1 versus Tyumen.
