It's the first game of the new season for Ryazan and Avangard Kursk. The canvas is blank, the possibilities endless.

Ryazan have less rest than Avangard Kursk in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Russian Cup game only three days ago. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Murom.

Avangard Kursk form and stats

It's a day of discovery for Avangard Kursk as they finally learn what impact all the hours of pre-season training, along with the changes in personnel, have had on their performance in an official game. It's never easy knowing what to expect based on friendly games, of which Avangard Kursk have played eight with the results W2-D5-L1 (win-draw-lost). In these games Avangard has scored 17 goals and conceded 10 times.

The last season was not a pleasant experience for Avangard as they could not accumulate enough points to survive. After only 5 victories from 27 games, relegation was a fact. Avangard Kursk's manager I. Belyaev are hoping to lead the team right back to FNL at the first attempt.
