An important duel in the bottom section of the league table, with both teams experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic “six-pointer” with the home team placed 16th and the visitors in 12th place.
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
Spartak Vladikavkaz form and stats
The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Pfl this season. Spartak Vladikavkaz, who have the fewest scored goals (10) in Pfl, have only managed 0 wins, 2 draws and 5 losses from their games here at Republican Spartak Stadium. All in all it has been a very rough period for Spartak Vladikavkaz who hasn’t won a game in their last 16 attempts. Their previous win was against Makhachkala, 116 days ago. With seven home games in a row without a win, the Spartak Vladikavkaz fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Dinamo Stavropol' game long ago, can be stopped today.
In their previous game, the manager V. Gorokhov led his Spartak Vladikavkaz to a defeat in the Pfl match away at Dinamo Stavropol'. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Republican Spartak Stadium. Before that, Spartak Vladikavkaz drew at home versus Mashuk-KMV.
Spartak Vladikavkaz were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.
