Akhmat
- Akhmat are unbeaten in their last two home games (Won 1, Drawn 1).
- Akhmat have only lost four of their last 14 home Premier League matches (Won 8, Drawn 2).
- FC Akhmat Grozny have been solidly mid-table in the Premier League 2025-2026 campaign, sitting 9th in the table after collecting 35 points from their 28 games to date.
- Akhmat bounced back from a defeat to Zenit with a 2-0 home win over Nizhny Novgorod in their most recent outing.
Dynamo
- Dynamo have won none of their last five Premier League games (Drawn 2, Lost 3).
- FC Dynamo Makhachkala have had a difficult season by their standards and have been languishing just above the drop zone in 14th place all season long with just 24 points from 28 Premier League outings to date.
- Vadim Evseev took over the reins in December 2025 and has modified the team’s high-pressing and wing overload approach to play with a little less intensity, but more defensive structure.
Head-to-Head
The last meeting at this venue finished 1-1 in the Premier League last season and the head-to-head record between the two sides in all competitions over the last four encounters is level with one win apiece and two draws.
Key Players
- Egas Cacintura has been Akhmat’s most potent attacking outlet this season with nine goals in 26 Premier League outings and two of his side’s last five.
- Dynamo’s Gamid Agalarov has been the one bright spark in attack for the Dagestani side with seven Premier League goals in 27 appearances, carrying much of the attacking burden for his team.
Betting Insights
- Their away form has been poor all season with the side picking up just five draws and nine defeats from 14 road games.
- The hosts’ home record is solid with eight wins, two draws and four defeats from their 14 outings and they are rightfully favoured for the three points here at 2.44.
- Akhmat have only conceded 13 goals in 14 home games.
- The visitors have scored just six times in 14 away Premier League outings this term, an average of 0.43 goals per game.
- Both teams to score - No is a solid bet at 1.75, while Under 2.5 goals is slightly overpriced at 1.62 in this game.
Prediction
Akhmat’s rigid defensive structure should frustrate Dynamo’s attack on Sunday and a close 1-0 win for the home side looks likely.
