Rostov form and stats
4 victories, 2 draws and 4 defeats. That’s what Rostov have to build on here at Rostov Arena in the Premier League.
Rostov enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Rotor Volgograd's place. The match ended 4-0 with Ali Sowe, Aleksandr Saplinov, Armin Gigović and Pontus Almqvist scoring. Heartbreak before that as Rostov lost 0-1 at Khimki's place.
As mentioned above, Rostov "killed" Rotor Volgograd in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.
Rostov has scored 12 league goals at home this season, in 10 matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Rostov have only conceded 9 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

As mentioned above, Spartak was the only team on the pitch versus Ural in their previous game, winning 5-1. This could be a tougher task.
The travelling fans enjoy Spartak's attacking play in away games, having scored 18 goals in 11 league matches away. 14 goals have been conceded by Spartak in these games.
