The first Premier League game here at VEB Arena resulted in a draw. Last season Dinamo Moskva's home game statistics were 4 victories, 4 draws and 7 defeats from 15 games.

Dinamo are confident in defense, having played 241 minutes without conceding a goal in the league.

Dinamo drew their last game, also a home match. Rotor Volgograd (placed 15th) was the opponent, 0-0 the score. Before that match, a win away at Ural.

This is expected to be a close game, with Dinamo Moskva perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Dinamo Moskva as a small favourite), we find six games. Dinamo has won two of these, drawn two and lost two.

There will be little rest for Dinamo after this match as they are travelling to Arsenal Tula for a Premier League game in only three days.

Dinamo Moskva has scored 0 goals so far and conceded 0 goals from 1 home game. These are numbers from the league only.
