Match begins: 13:00 (UTC)

Nosta perform at a high level so far being 3rd in the table. Volga Ulyanovsk can look both up and down from their 6th position.

Nosta and Volga Ulyanovsk should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.

Volga Ulyanovsk have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1000 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
