Avangard Kursk hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 10 points and a 13th position in the Pfl table. Visiting Znamya Noginsk holds 10th place with 13 pts.
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.
