FC Ural Yekaterinburg
- FC Ural Yekaterinburg are looking to maintain their promotion ambitions in the FNL 2025/2026, sitting in second place on 42 points from 23 matches, while Arsenal Tula currently occupy 11th spot on 29 points from 23 games.
- Ural have a very strong home record in the FNL 2025/2026, winning 6, drawing 3 and only losing 1 of their 10 games at the Central Stadium, and they should be able to edge out an improving Arsenal Tula side on Sunday.
Arsenal Tula
- Arsenal Tula are also on a poor run of form, with no wins in their last 5, and a 0-1 loss at home to Volga Ulyanovsk does little to inspire confidence in the visitors.
- However, the Tula-based side are a much more solid team on their travels in the FNL 2025/2026 than at home, picking up 4 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses from 11 outings, and they are likely to be more competitive in this contest than the current odds suggest.
Head-to-Head
- Ural won the most recent meeting between the sides 2-1 away at Arsenal Tula in FNL 2025/2026 four months ago, while the overall record between the two sides stands at 1 win each and a draw from 3 games.
- The recent head-to-head record between the teams is fairly even, but the fact that Ural have conceded just 7 goals in 10 FNL 2025/2026 home games this season is a huge reason why we feel that the home side are favourites to win to nil on Sunday.
Key Players
Ural’s main scoring threat is Martin Sekulic with 6 goals in 21 FNL 2025/2026 games , while Daniil Penchikov leads the way for Tula with just 4 goals in 18 appearances .
