Sochi
Sochi shocked everyone last season with their fifth-place finish, which allows them to play in this season’s Europa Conference League qualifiers. There, they will play against Serbian side Partizan, just a few days before this match.
In the previous season, Sochi was the third best-performing home team in Russia, losing, unbelievably, only one out of 15 matches.
Sochi’s objective for this season is, primarily, to ensure they stay in the league for another season, and then to see what happens from there. A repeat of last season seems incredibly unlikely.
Ural
Ural are one of five teams yet to win, having started the season with a 0-3 defeat and then a 1-1 draw.
Ural were the third worst-performing away team last season, winning only one out of 15 matches while losing seven times.
In last season’s second leg between the two, when Sochi were at their best, Ural were able to beat the Sochi team 1-0.
Key Stats:
- Four wins and one defeat for Sochi in their last five games
- Three consecutive matches conceding at least one goal for Sochi
- Two wins, one draw, and two defeats for Ural in their last five games
- Sochi have conceded eight goals in their last five games
Sochi vs Ural Predictions
Sochi have a far superior team to Ural, and despite the fact that they will be rotating players after playing in the Europa Conference League qualifiers, we think that they have enough quality to win this match, and even more so playing at home.
