The league table in Premier League tells a story about these teams so far, with Dinamo Moskva leading Ural by 13 points. Match preview to follow:
- Dinamo Moskva have the fewest conceded goals (5) at home in Premier League
- Ural have the fewest matches over the total-line (7) in Premier League
The hosts Dinamo saw competitive action as recent as three days ago, playing in the Russian Cup. That game was an away game at Krylya Sovetov, so at least Dinamo are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
These teams have little in common geographically as Ural have to travel 1700 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
Dinamo Moskva form and stats
Dinamo Moskva, who have the fewest conceded goals (5) at home in Premier League, are steadily winning Premier League games and points here at VTB Arena. 9 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats is the summary from 12 games.
In their previous game, the manager S. Schwarz led his Dinamo Moskva to a defeat in the Russian Cup match away at Krylya Sovetov. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at VTB Arena. Before that game, the 4-0 home victory against Ufa.
A decent goal production from Dinamo in their home games so far, with 22 goals from 12 league matches. As for guarding their own goal, Dinamo Moskva have only let in 5 goals at home.
Ural form and stats
There's been little loot from Ural's travels as they have only collected 9 points from 12 away games in the Premier League. Ural only have 1 win to counter their 5 defeats and 6 draws.
Ural are travelling after their nice 2-0 home win in the Premier League against Arsenal Tula (placed 14th). A 1-5 defeat away at Spartak Moskva before that.
The attacking power of Ural when travelling is not overwhelming with 10 goals scored from 12 league matches away. As for defending, Ural rarely keep clean sheets as they have conceded 21 goals from these away matches.
