Nizhny Novgorod

WLLLLL 🔻

Since tasting defeat last time out to Lokomotiv Moscow in Premier League competition, Nizhny Novgorod will be aiming to make amends here.

In that game, Nizhny Novgorod managed 23% possession and 8 attempts at goal with 5 on target. The only player to score for Nizhny Novgorod was Nikolay Kalinskiy (35', 58'). At the other end, Lokomotiv Moscow got 21 shots on goal with 8 on target. Timur Suleymanov (75'), Anton Miranchuk (92') and Aleksandr Silyanov (96') scored for Lokomotiv Moscow.

The numbers tell their own story, and Nizhny Novgorod have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, seeing their opponents hit 16 goals overall. At the back, Nizhny Novgorod have seen their frailties exposed. Such a pattern won’t necessarily be sustained here, however.

Coming into this clash, Nizhny Novgorod are without an away win for the past 2 league games.

With a completely healthy group available to select from, the Nizhny Novgorod manager Sergei Yuran does not have any fitness worries at all ahead of this clash.

It’s our belief that Nizhny Novgorod seem likely to begin the game with a 3-5-1-1 formation, choosing Artur Nigmatullin, Viktor Aleksandrov, Kirill Gotsuk, Dmitri Tikhiy, Dmitry Zhivoglyadov, Nikolay Kalinskiy, Nikita Kakkoev, Konstantin Kuchaev, Dmitry Stotskiy, A. Troshechkin and Nikoloz Kutateladze.

🧠 Prediction

We’re of the opinion that Nizhny Novgorod will do well to hit the back of the net against this Terek Grozny side who we reckon will be able to get on the scoresheet themselves in a winning performance.

With that in mind, we reckon that it will be a hard-fought 1-0 victory for Terek Grozny at the end of this one.

There should be little in it.
