Rostov form and stats

Rostov, who have the fewest points (1) at home in Premier League, have played 4 Premier League games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 0-1-3 (wins-draws-losses).

In their previous game, the manager Y. Semin led his Rostov to a defeat in the Russian Cup match away at Chayka. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Rostov Arena.

Heartbreak before that as Rostov lost 2-4 at Krylya Sovetov's place.

This is expected to be a close game, with Rostov perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Rostov as a small favourite), we find eight games. Rostov has won four of these, drawn two and lost two.

Rostov are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 4 goals in 4 games. Neutralizing the opposition is a challenge, Rostov having conceded 10 goals here at Rostov Arena so far.

Akhmat Grozny form and stats

Two travels in a row for Akhmat Grozny, whose manager A. Talalaev could celebrate last time after the Russian Cup win against Kairat Moskva.

Preceding that, the 0-2 home loss versus Krasnodar.
