Fakel II hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 6 points and a 16th position in the Pfl table. Visiting Strogino holds 9th place with 20 pts.

The hosts Fakel saw competitive action as recent as four days ago, playing in the Pfl. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Salyut Belgorod.

Fakel II form and stats

Fakel II's struggle is real here at Stadion Chayka with only 6 points collected from 6 Pfl games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 2-0-4. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Fakel with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Avangard Kursk game, 27 days ago, have they avoided a loss.

Fakel haven't scored a league goal since they found the net 281 minutes ago. A. Kryukov scored that one.

Before that game, the home loss against Znamya Noginsk with the scoreline 0-1.

Fakel are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 7 goals in 6 games. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 10 goals have been conceded.

Strogino form and stats

There's been little loot from Strogino's travels as they have only collected 6 points from 7 away games in the Pfl. Strogino only have 2 wins to counter their 5 defeats and 0 draws. Strogino has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Avangard Kursk wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Strogino as they have only managed to score 5 times from 7 away games in the league. Strogino's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 13 goals from these trips.
