Spartak Moskva form and stats

Spartak Moskva have played three Premier League home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 3 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead.

The Spartak Moskva fans got no joy from their last match, a Premier League game also here at Otkrytiye Arena: A 1-2 defeat against Sochi (placed 3rd). Defender Samuel Gigot got the top score of the team in the match with a rating of 7.62/10. Gigot served one assist, hit one key pass and won 6 of 9 duels.

1-1 away at Arsenal Tula before that.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Europa League game versus Legia Warszawa in only four days. This game is also played here at Otkrytiye Arena.

Spartak Moskva has scored 3 league goals at home this season, in 3 matches. 4 goals have been conceded.
