📏 Form Guide

Nizhny Novgorod

LLWLLL 📉

Nizhny Novgorod will be looking to improve on their last outing here following a 2-0 Premier League loss in their previous game against FC Khimki.

In that game, Nizhny Novgorod had 53% possession and 15 shots on goal with 5 on target. For their opponents, Khimki got 13 shots on goal with 4 on target. Lucas Vera (22') and Butta Magomedov (85') scored for FC Khimki.

An interesting trait of more recent Nizhny Novgorod games is seeing a zero in the scoreline.

From their previous six clashes before this one, in 5 of them a bet on both teams scoring would've been a loser. Such a trend isn’t assured to be sustained into this match, though.

Orenburg

LLLLWL

Since a loss in their previous game against Dynamo Moscow in Premier League competition, Orenburg and their travelling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one.

In that game, Orenburg had 45% possession and 11 attempts at goal with 6 of them on target. The scorer for Orenburg was Saeid Saharkhizan (77'). Dynamo Moscow got 23 attempts on goal with 9 on target. Jorge Carrascal (38', 41'), Bitello (60'), Luis Chávez (67') and Viktor Okishor (90') scored for Dynamo Moscow.

It is worth noting that Orenburg have made hard work of scoring goals over their previous six clashes, recording the disappointing return of just 3. In those fixtures, Orenburg have also seen the collective goal aggregate against them equal 11.

Coming into this clash, Orenburg are without an away win for the past 22 league matches. Their travelling supporters must be so depressed.

ℹ️ Team News: Orenburg

Owing to an otherwise available group, there is only the lone fitness problem for the Orenburg boss Vladimir Slišković to be concerned with. Gabriel Florentín (Muscle injury) won’t be playing here.

🧠 Prediction

We think that Orenburg will have to perform well to get anything against this Nizhny Novgorod side who we reckon will get the vital goal that wins it.

We’re therefore anticipating a good battle with a 1-0 winning margin for Nizhny Novgorod at the end of this game.

Let’s see.
