Rostov form and stats
The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Premier League this season. Rostov have only managed 2 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses from their games here at Rostov Arena. Two home wins in a row for Rostov bring valid hopes of a third.
The Rostov supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host Rubin Kazan' in Premier League and win 5-1. As mentioned above, Rostov "killed" Rubin Kazan' in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency. Rostov goalkeeper Sergey Pesyakov did an outstanding job against Rubin Kazan' with six saves, so vital to securing the victory.
