Match Events
- 0' The game is set. FK Spartak Moskva kicks off things out of here…
- 5' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering FK Rubin Kazan that had 208 games and scored 211 goals.
- 10' The 32-year-old Ilya Kutepov has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.

- 29' Oleh Danchenko needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 34' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Pavel Mogilevets made 105 appearances and scored 1 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
