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. The home team come into this on the back of back-to-back defeats and they have lost three of their opening four matches so far this season. Orenburg were promoted from the second division last season, alongside upcoming opponents Torpedo Moscow. The capital city club have also lost three of their opening four matches, too. The two sides have conceded double figures already so a score draw would appear the likeliest outcome for this one between two seemingly evenly matched but poor sides.
