Rotor Volgograd form and stats
The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Premier League this season. Rotor Volgograd, who have the fewest scored goals (7) in Premier League, have only managed 0 wins, 1 draw and 7 losses from their games here at Volgograd Arena. With nine home Premier League games in a row without a win, the Rotor Volgograd fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Tom' Tomsk game long ago, can be stopped today.
D. Stepanov was the last player to score a league goal for Rotor Volgograd and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as Volgograd haven't scored in 298 minutes.
No payout for Volgograd in their previous match, an away game at Krasnodar that ended in defeat 0-5. Prior to that, an away loss at Spartak Moskva.
Volgograd were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.
Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Arsenal Tula are coming to town in four days.
Volgograd have scored 2 goals here in 8 league matches, a depressing statistic. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Volgograd have conceded 14 from these games.
Ufa form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Ufa so far with only 7 points returning home. The records show 2-1-5 (win-draw-lose).
233 minutes! That's how long the Ufa goalkeeper Aleksandr Belenov and his defense have shut out their league opponents.
It's the second away game in a row for Ufa, but there's smiles all around after the 1-0 victory versus Rostov (placed 5th) in the Premier League last time out. That result followed a home victory 4-0 versus Tambov.
The attacking power of Ufa when travelling is not overwhelming with 6 goals scored from 8 league matches away. It's worth mentioning that 3 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. For Ufa, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.
