With the nervous opening game out of the way it’s time for the second Premier League game of the season. Dinamo Moskva look forward to welcoming Rotor Volgograd in front of their home support.

There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Premier League game only four days ago.

Rotor Volgograd have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 900 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
