It's the second chance for points this season as Krylya Sovetov and Spartak Moskva battle it out at Samara Arena.

We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!

These teams have little in common geographically as Spartak Moskva have to travel 1000 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
