1 victory, 0 draws and 4 defeats. That’s what Olimpiyets have to build on here at Stadion Nizhny Novgorod in the Premier League. The home stadium (Stadion Nizhny Novgorod) is supposed to be a fortress, but for Olimpiyets it's been a house of straw as the last four games here have all been lost. Can they turn things around?

No payout for Olimpiyets in their previous match, an away game at Krylya Sovetov that ended in defeat 0-2. Some supporters pointed their nail-bitten fingers at Nikolay Kalinskiy for missing a penalty kick versus Krylya Sovetov in the 84th minute. It's possible that a goal in that situation would have changed the outcome. Igor Gorbunov (midfield was the top team player in that game with a rating of 6.45/10.

Ahead of that match, Olimpiyets lost 0-2 at home to CSKA Moskva.
