📋 Team News: Baltika Kaliningrad

Evgeniy Latyshonok (Leg injury) and Vladislav Lazarev (Meniscus tear) are not available for Baltika Kaliningrad gaffer Sergei Ignashevich.

We think that Baltika Kaliningrad may well opt for a 3-5-2 system, utilising Maksim Borisko, Nikola Radmanovac, Ivan Ostojic, Nathan Gassama, Guillermo Soto, Kristijan Bistrovic, Aleksandr Osipov, Maksim Kuzmin, Roberto Fernández, Gedeon Guzina and Tamerlan Musaev.

🗞️ Team News: Spartak Moscow

Thanks to a mainly healthy group, there’s just the one fitness problem for the Spartak Moscow manager Guillermo Abascal to contend with. Tomás Tavares (Cruciate ligament tear) won’t be playing here.

It’s our belief that Narodnaya komanda might play in a 4-3-3 formation, starting Aleksandr Maksimenko, Daniil Khlusevich, Alexis Duarte, Srdjan Babic, Oleg Reabciuk, Danil Prutsev, Mikhail Ignatov, Ruslan Litvinov, Anton Zinkovskiy, Quincy Promes and Jesús Medina.

🧠 Prediction

We think that Baltika Kaliningrad could find themselves struggling to breach the defence of this Spartak Moscow team who we reckon should be able to get on the scoresheet themselves in a winning performance.

Our tip is therefore for a very even match with a 0-1 win for Spartak Moscow when the full-time whistle blows.

Looking forward to watching this one unfold.
