The league table in Premier League tells a story about these teams so far, with CSKA Moskva leading Ufa by 26 points. Match preview to follow:

Insights:
  • CSKA Moskva have the fewest conceded goals in the second half (13) in Premier League
  • Ufa have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored away.

Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!

These teams have little in common geographically as Ufa have to travel 1300 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Ufa are struggling to avoid relegation.

CSKA Moskva form and stats

Overall Premier League stats at home this season for CSKA Moskva are 7-3-3 (wins-draw-losses).

In their previous game, the manager I. Olić led his Moskva to a defeat in the Premier League match away at Spartak Moskva. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at VEB Arena. Heartbreak before that as CSKA Moskva lost 0-3 at Lokomotiv Moskva's place.

With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (27 in 13 games), CSKA Moskva's attacking play is working. 15 goals have been conceded.

Ufa form and stats

There's been little loot from Ufa's travels as they have only collected 11 points from 14 away games in the Premier League. Ufa only have 3 wins to counter their 9 defeats and 2 draws.

Home advantage was not enough for Ufa in their previous game, as they lost their Premier League-match, hosting Sochi, 2-3. Ahead of that match was the victory versus Spartak Moskva at their stadium, the result 3-0.

Late heartbreak for Ufa in the Sochi match, as the deciding 2-3 goal came deep into overtime.

The visitors have scored 10 goals from 14 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Ufa's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 26 goals from these trips.

Head 2 Head

The teams have played each other before this season, with the result Ufa - Moskva 0-1 entered in the official records. Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Moskva won five games, five matches ended with a draw and Ufa has zero wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: three / seven
