THE PREDICTION
The Russian Premier League concluded last season in bizarre and fairly surreal circumstances. As Russia waged war on Ukraine, following the February invasion, football in Ukraine stopped but Russia continued. Russian clubs have been banned from UEFA competitions for an indefinite amount of time and that has, as unimportant as it seems in the circumstances, killed the competitiveness and meaningfulness with little to play for between top spot and the relegation zone. So, that will have another bearing on the standard and style of these matches - and that must be noted. Nizhny Novgorod’s most recent outing was a 2-1 defeat away to in-form and high-flying Sochi last weekend. The home team remain winless so far this season with two draws and two defeats so far, continuing their poor end to last season. They now face a Rostov side that finished the 2021/22 campaign well and they remain unbeaten after four matches this time around. The visitors have won two and drawn two so far and an away win is the expected outcome of this one.
