Novosibirsk form and stats

Novosibirsk have played 11 Pfl games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 6-3-2 (wins-draws-losses). Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Novosibirsk, their manager S. Kirsanov and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.

The home team returns after being equal after 90 minutes with Tyumen (placed 2nd) on their last time out; the Pfl game ended 1-1.

A strong away win before that one, visiting Zvezda Perm and winning 1-0.

Krylya Sovetov Samara II form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Krylya Sovetov Samara II, who have the fewest clean sheets (2) in Pfl, so far with only 5 points returning home. The records show 1-2-8 (win-draw-lose). Sovetov are desperate to end a ten-game winless run, as they haven't won a game since the Orenburg II fixture.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Pfl home defeat versus Volga Ulyanovsk with 1-3 on the scoreboard.

Preceding that game, the 0-1 loss visiting Volna Kovernino's place.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Sovetov manager V. Kukhlevskiy as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Dinamo Barnaul.

The attacking power of Sovetov when travelling is not overwhelming with 6 goals scored from 11 league matches away. The Krylya Sovetov Samara II manager V. Kukhlevskiy has some worries about the defense as 23 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

These teams' last encounter with each other was the Krylya Sovetov Samara II - Novosibirsk 2-6 earlier this season.
