Ural are undefeated in their last 5 away matches in all competitions.

Akhmat Grozny have dropped into the automatic relegation places despite drawing their last two Russian Premier League matches. Ural travel to the Akhmat Arena having only won one of their last six league games and in need of a stabilising performance.

Akhmat Grozny Form

Akhmat come into this fixture on the back of a three-match unbeaten run in all competitions but still find themselves in the bottom two and under more pressure than ever. Andres Ponce’s penalty helped them to a 1-1 draw away to Dinamo Moscow at the VTB Arena last weekend to offer some short-term comfort at least.

Akhmat have failed to keep a clean sheet in any of their last four competitive matches, and have just one league win in their last 11 Russian Premier League matches.

Akhmat Grozny News

Captain and fullback Rizvan Utsiev joins Brazilian midfielder Ravanelli on the treatment table for this match, but Albanian winger Odise Roshi returns from his suspension and is available.

Ural Form

Ural failed to keep a clean sheet as they somehow failed to make their dominance count at the Centralniy Stadium last weekend. The surprise 2-1 defeat to Orenburg did at least include a goal for talisman Erik Bicfalvi.

Just one clean sheet since July is a major concern, as is the fact they have only won once in their last six Russian Premier League games.

Ural News

Utility defender/midfielder Roman Emelyanov is still out injured. Polish winger Michal Kucharczyk has still not made a start since his summer move from Legia Warsaw and is a slight doubt. Petrus Boumal is back to full fitness and is available having not started a league game for over two months.

Akhmat Grozny vs Ural Head to Head

Ural are unbeaten in their last five matches against Akhmat Grozny, drawing the last two visits 1-1 and 0-0. Akhmat have only won once at home against Ural.

Akhmat Grozny vs Ural Betting Odds

Home advantage means Akhmat are favourites with bet365 at 2.05. Ural are unbeaten in their last four away league games and are priced at 3.75 with the draw at 3.25.

Perhaps the most tempting value is in the over/under 2.5 market. Even at the relatively short price of 1.69 for under. Akhmat has scored few goals at home while Ural average under a goal per away game.

Akhmat Grozny vs Ural Match Up

While striker Andres Ponce scored last weekend to make him top goalscorer for Akhmat, he is only on two goals alongside wingers Bernard Berisha and Roshi. Facing a defence that has let in just short of two goals per game should be a tempting opportunity for the Venezuelan to boost his tally.

Akhmat should be wary of the threat carried by Ural’s playmaker Eric Bicfalvi after the Romanian bagged his fourth goal at the weekend.
