Khimki form and stats

8-1-4 (win-draw-lost) are the Premier League numbers at home for Khimki so far this season. Khimki has won so many consecutive home games (seven in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here at Arena Khimki. We remember; it was Zenit.

Happy days for Khimki in their previous game, a Premier League match away at Dinamo Moskva (placed 6th) that ended with a 1-0 victory. Nobody expected Khimki to beat Dinamo Moskva in the last match, but sometimes David beats Goliath. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Akhmat Grozny (1-3).

The victory against Dinamo Moskva came after Maksim Glushenkov's winning goal. The Khimki manager I. Cherevchenko was very happy afterwards with the decision to bring on that player in the 63rd minute. A late climax in the match against Dinamo Moskva as the winning goal came two minutes into overtime; scored by Maksim Glushenkov.

The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Khimki handle that role? We have found six games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The stats for these games are three wins, two draws and one defeat.

There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
