Venue: Samara Arena (44918 seats)

This game involves two participants living in the lower section of the Premier League, Krylya Sovetov having 13th position and Ural sitting at 11th. A nice chance for one of the squads to improve their situation.

Insights:
  • Krylya Sovetov have won at least twice as many corners as they have conceded at home.
  • Ural have won significantly less corners away then at home.

Ural 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.

There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Russian Cup game only four days ago. That game, against Krasnodar, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Ural.
