RFPL match announcement. Spartak - Ural. announcement of the RFPL match “Spartak” – “Ural”: where to watch

Moscow Spartak took points from Liverpool, maintaining good chances for the Champions League playoffs. But do the “red-whites” have any strength left for internal affairs?

September 30th. 19:00. Football. Russia. Premier League. "Spartak" - "Ural". Otkritie Arena Stadium (Moscow). The main judge is Vladislav Bezborodov. Live broadcast on Match TV channel.

Spartak's draw in the duel with Liverpool is a joyful event from an emotional point of view. However, from the point of view of the content of the game, nothing has changed globally for the “red-whites”. If in the first half the Spartak team offered counterplay to Liverpool, then in the second half they completely sat on the defensive. If not for the exemplary play of Artyom Rebrov and Alexander Selikhov, defeat for Spartak would have been inevitable.

On the domestic stage, Spartak's results are frankly sad. In the last six Premier League matches, the team won only one victory. The “red-whites” have poor game discipline: Massimo Carrera’s team misses too often in the end. Frequent point losses in the last minutes can be associated not only with psychology, but also with a lack of squad depth.

The lack of reinforcement, combined with a series of injuries, leaves Massimo Carrera with no room for maneuver. The personnel potential of Spartak can now even be compared with Ural. Moreover, Alexander Tarkhanov’s team is having another successful season. Last year, the Urals reached the final of the Russian Cup, and now they are fighting for the European Cup, taking seventh place in the RFPL table.

Ural does not have outstanding personnel capabilities. Nevertheless, the team from Yekaterinburg manages to score points even in confrontations with the giants. Such success in games with favorites is associated with a high level of discipline, as well as the presence of character. Often the Urals save themselves in the last minutes. Will the team from Yekaterinburg be able to take points away from the current champion?

Approximate team compositions

Spartak Moscow will not be able to count on defenders Dmitry Kombarov and Georgiy Tigiev, midfielders Roman Zobnin and Artyom Timofeev, and goalkeeper Artyom Rebrov due to injuries. The appearance on the field of striker Ze Luis, midfielders Denis Glushakov, Quincy Promes, Alexander Samedov, Jano Ananidze and Ivelin Popov is questionable.

“Ural” has a much more comfortable situation with injuries. Defender Vladimir Khozin and midfielder Artyom Fidler will not help Alexander Tarkhanov’s team. The appearance of defender Alexander Dantsev on the field is questionable. However, all of these players can hardly be called key in the Ural game mechanism.

"Spartak" (4-2-3-1): Selikhov - Eshchenko, Taski, Dzhikia, Dzhikia - Pashalic, Fernando - Popov, Rosha, Davydov - Adriano;

"Ural" (4-2-3-1): Godzyur - Kulakov, Merkulov, Balazic, Haroyan - Bavin, Emelyanov - Dimitrov, Bikfalvi, Chanturia - Ilyin;

Conclusion

“Spartak” acts ineptly against obviously weaker teams. The Red-Whites allow themselves unacceptable mistakes in defense. The situation with personnel, especially in the middle line, does not add optimism. “Ural”, on the contrary, knows how to act in an organized manner. Alexander Tarkhanov's team feels comfortable playing as number two. As a forecast for the match Spartak - Ural, we recommend betting on X2. Bookmaker Leon estimates this event with odds of 2.75.

On September 30 at 19:00, as part of the Russian Championship, the match between Spartak and Ural will take place. The teams are neighbors in the standings. The home team is in 8th place and is 2 points behind the guests, who are in 7th position.

Spartacus

The reigning champion scored only 14 points in 11 games. In the last 5 rounds, Spartak won 6 points, winning once and drawing three times. During this period, the Muscovites scored 8 goals, conceding the same number.

In the last match, the team played 2:2 with Anzhi at home. The meeting was held on equal terms. The hosts ruined the score in the 14th minute thanks to a penalty. At the end of the match, in the 74th and 78th minutes, the guests not only won back, but also took the lead. Melgarho's goal in injury time saved Spartak from defeat.

This season, Carrera's team have played 5 times at home: three wins, one loss and one draw. The players managed to score in all matches. Three times the gate remained untouched.

More than three goals are expected, because the total over 2.5 is estimated at 1.68, and the opposite outcome is 2.13. An away win or draw can be taken for 2.50.

The current champion of Russia, Moscow's Spartak, will host Ekaterinburg's Ural in the match of the 12th round of the Russian Championship.

“Spartak” – “Ural”: forecast

Of course, Spartak Moscow, which lost a lot of “its” points in the first third of the championship, is the favorite in the match with Ural, even despite the fact that the guests are higher in the standings. However, the history of head-to-head meetings between Spartak and Ural, as well as the positions in the table, indicate that the opponents are approximately equal in class. Judge for yourself: out of 13 matches, Spartak won 6, Ural – 5 with 5 draws. The overall goal difference is also approximately equal (15:14 in favor of the Muscovites). The last head-to-head match, held in April, was won by the hosts in the capital with a minimal score.
