Venue: Arena Khimki (18636 seats)

Season ticket holders at Arena Khimki haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Dinamo Moskva languishing in the 12th position so far. The guesting Rostov will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 1100 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.
