The stats don’t lie, and Lokomotiv Moscow have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 matches, conceding 9 goals overall. In defence, Lokomotiv Moscow have been far from perfect. We will see if that trend can be sustained here.

Going into this encounter, Lokomotiv Moscow are without a win away from home in their last 8 league matches. Their travelling support will be needed here, for sure.

🗞️ Team News: Fakel Voronezh

Nearly everyone is up for selection, with just one fitness concern for the Fakel Voronezh manager Igor Shalimov to be concerned with from of an almost fully healthy group. Maks Dziov (Broken fibula) won’t play.

It looks as if Fakelony will probably use the 3-5-2 system this time, utilising Vitaliy Gudiev, Dylan Mertens, Igor Yurganov, Sergey Bozhin, Mohamed Brahimi, Ilnur Alshin, Vyacheslav Yakimov, Andrey Ivlev, Igor Kalinin, Aleksey Kashtanov and Vladimir Iljin.

There’s a good chance that Loko might begin the game with a 4-2-3-1 formation, settling for Anton Mitryushkin, Aleksandr Silyanov, Maksim Nenakhov, Egor Pogostnov, Vadim Rakov, Artem Karpukas, Dmitri Barinov, Vladislav Sarveli, Aleksey Batrakov, Sergey Pinyaev and Dmitri Vorobyev.

🔮 Prediction

Looking at these two teams, we feel that Fakel Voronezh will need things to go their way to be putting a goal past this Lokomotiv Moscow side who we think will likely score at least once to put them ahead.

We’re therefore tipping a hard-fought contest, finishing with a 0-1 winning score for Lokomotiv Moscow when all is said and done.

We’ll see what happens.
