Head-to-Head
The Akron Tolyatti vs FK Lokomotiv Moscow prediction is influenced by the fact that Lokomotiv won 3-1 away in the Cup only five weeks ago, so there is a recent familiarity with this fixture for Galaktionov’s players, who will know where the game can be won.
Key Players
- Veteran striker Artem Dzyuba is the focal point for Tolyatti’s pragmatic approach and is currently their most potent threat in the attacking third with four league goals in 12 appearances.
- His 4-2-3-1 or 4-3-3 system is built on compact defending, physical duels and balls played directly to Dzyuba, with set pieces and wide play also playing an important role.
- Mikhail Galaktionov’s style of high-tempo, front foot soccer is completely opposite to what Akron are about, with pressing, quick transitions and wide play taking priority over set pieces.
