Krasnodar manager M. Musaev looking for maximum points from Tambov trip

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Tambov and Krasnodar.

Krasnodar have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1000 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Tambov form and stats

Tambov have played three 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. Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Tambov, their manager A. Grigoryan and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.

Tambov's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 0-2 versus Krasnodar. Preceding that game was the away draw at Orenburg that finished 2-2.

The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Tambov here at Stadion Spartak, with less than one goal per game on average (2 from 3 games). On the other hand, Tambov have conceded 3 goals.
