Krylya Sovetov goalkeeper Ivan Lomaev did an outstanding job against Dinamo Moskva with six saves, so vital to securing the victory. The goalie Ivan Lomaev was named most valuable player of the team in that game, scoring 8.12 out of ten. Lomaev stopped the opponent with six saves and topped it up with a clean sheet.

Olimpiyets form and stats

As the visiting team in Premier League matches, Olimpiyets have produced an overall stat of 3-2-0 so far. The away team travel with confidence. Not since the Orenburg game have they lost an away game, meaning Olimpiyets has taken points from seven away matches in a row.

It's the second away game in a row for Olimpiyets, but there's smiles all around after the 1-0 victory versus Rubin Kazan (placed 8th) in the Premier League last time out. Artur Nigmatullin (goalkeeper) was the best performer with a rating of 8.21. Nigmatullin saved a penalty, stopped the opponent with five saves and topped it up with a clean sheet.

Preceding that, the 0-2 home loss versus CSKA Moskva.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Olimpiyets playing away, we found one game. Results were zero away wins, zero draws and one home win.

Olimpiyets have scored 7 goals on their travels this season, from 5 away games in the league. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (4 so far).
