Competition: Russia FNL
Date: Sat 31.August
Match begins: 14:00 (UTC)
Venue: Stadion Tekstilshchik (12600 seats)

An important duel in the bottom section of the league table, with both teams experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic “six-pointer” with the home team placed 19th and the visitors in 16th place.

It's no vacation for neither Tekstilshchik nor Fakel as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artificial turf and that the visiting Fakel have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artificial turf is 2-2-2 (win-draw-loss) from six matches.
