Rostov Preview – Can Rostov build on CSKA win?
Sunday’s hosts, Rostov, did their chances of claiming a top two finish in the Russian top flight no harm at all last Sunday when they registered an impressive 3-2 home win against CSKA Moscow and no doubt Rostov will be looking for more of the same this time around as they hold home advantage again when they entertain Lokomotiv Moscow.
It’s now four matches without defeat for Rostov who have climbed up into 3rd place and now find themselves just three points behind 2nd placed Krasnodar having recorded an earlier and convincing 4-1 win away from home at Spartak Moscow along with picking up points in draws with Ural and Akhmat Grozny.
In addition, the hosts have suffered just 1 defeat at home all season amidst an overall solid looking home record which stands at 7-2-1 18/9 and includes notable wins against two of the Moscow sides, Dinamo and CSKA.
Lokomotiv Moscow Preview – Can Lokomotiv Moscow win back-to-back?
The visitors head into this important Russian top flight clash against Rostov on the back of a 1-0 home win against bottom outfit Akhmat Grozny as they seek to record back-to-back wins and leapfrog Rostov into 3rd spot.
Despite their lofty position of 4th place though, Lokomotiv Moscow have produced some mixed results of late as they’ve picked up wins against Tambov and Akhmat Grozny but have also fallen to defeats against Dinamo Moscow 2-1 at home and a heavy 4-0 thrashing away from home at the hands of Arsenal Tula.
An overall away record of 6-3-2 15/13 at first glance looks reasonable enough but delve a bit deeper and only 1 of their 6 wins on the road have been against top half opposition (Dinamo Moscow), while losing at CSKA and Arsenal Tula and drawing at Krasnodar and Zenit.
