Competition: Russia FNL
Date: Sun 25.August
Match begins: 13:00 (UTC)
Venue: Stadion Rubin (10000 seats)

The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Neftekhimik are in the 9th position while the guests worry at 18th.

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 Neftekhimik and Krasnodar II.

Krasnodar II 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.

Neftekhimik form and stats

Overall FNL stats at home this season for Neftekhimik are 1-2-2 (wins-draw-losses).

Neftekhimik's last game was hosting Krasnodar II and winning 1-0. Prior to that, an away loss at KAMAZ in the Russian Cup.

This is expected to be a close game, with Neftekhimik perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Neftekhimik as a small favourite), we find one game. Neftekhimik has won 0 of these, drawn 1 and lost 0.

Neftekhimik are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 5 goals in 5 attempts. On the other hand, Neftekhimik have conceded 6 goals.

Krasnodar II form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their FNL travels is 2 wins, 1 draw and 3 defeats.

Two away games in a row for Krasnodar II, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 0-1 versus Neftekhimik in the FNL. A 0-1 loss hosting Tom' Tomsk before that.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Krasnodar II playing away and similar expectations, we found eight relevant matches. Results were 2 Krasnodar II wins, 3 draws and 3 defeats.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Krasnodar II as they have only managed to score 5 times from 6 away games in the league. As opposed to that, Krasnodar II have seen the ball go into their own net 8 times on the road.

Head 2 Head
