An important duel in the bottom section of the FNL, with both Spartak Moskva II and Shinnik experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 15th and the visitors in 22nd place.

Insights:
  • Shinnik have the most conceded goals (86) in FNL

There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a FNL match only three days ago. Thankfully the previous game, versus Krylya Sovetov, was also a home game here at Futbol'naya Akademiya Spartak im. F. Cherenkova. The away team is better rested.

This pitch has artifical turf, which is not Shinnik's usual surface at their own ground. When playing on artifical turf Shinnik have performed like this: Played seven matches resulting in 1 win, 4 draws and 2 defeats with the goal stats 5-7 (scored/conceded).

Spartak are fighting like crazy to avoid relegation and desperately need points in this fixture. For Shinnik it's their last days at this level as relegation is a fact.

Spartak Moskva II form and stats

Spartak Moskva II's results here at Futbol'naya Akademiya Spartak im. F. Cherenkova in the FNL have been very modest with 4 victories, 5 draws and 10 defeats. It's trouble wherever Spartak are playing these days as they have suffered four straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways. The Spartak manager E. Bushmanov might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.

Spartak are anxiously hoping for a goal as it's been 220 minutes since the last one in league fixtures. (Scored by P. Rocha).

Spartak's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 0-2 versus Krylya Sovetov (placed 1st). A defeat was the result before that one, 0-4 away at Olimpiyets.

Spartak are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 19 goals in 19 games. Spartak have conceded 32 from these games.
