Akhmat Grozny hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 14 points and a 15th position in the Premier League table. Visiting Ural holds 10th place with 18 pts.
Ural could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Premier League game only four sleeps ago.
It's quite the trip for Ural when visiting Akhmat Grozny as the cities are 2600 kilometers apart.
