FC Yenisey Krasnoyarsk (home)
- FC Yenisey Krasnoyarsk are 11th in FNL 2026/2027 with 10 points from 8 games.
- Yenisey are the favorites to take the win, but their recent form hasn't been the greatest with four draws and a defeat from their last five matches.
- Sergei Tashuyev's side have been held 0-0 at home by Shinnik Yaroslavl and lost 3-1 away to FC Ufa.
- Yenisey are yet to lose at home in the new FNL season, but Neftekhimik have won two and lost two of their other four away matches, so the points may be split here.
Neftekhimik Nizhnekamsk (away)
- Neftekhimik Nizhnekamsk are 12th in FNL 2026/2027 with 9 points from 9 games.
- Neftekhimik's form is even worse, with four defeats from their last five in FNL 2026/2027, although they did win their most recent road game - a 1-0 victory over FC Rotor Volgograd.
- Robert Evdokimov's side have been solid rather than spectacular this season, and it looks like they are set up to be pragmatic in nature.
Key Players
- Marat Tlekhugov has been in good form for the hosts with three goals in seven appearances for Yenisey in FNL 2026/2027, while two of his strikes have contributed to the two goals Yenisey have scored in their last five games.
- Islam Mashukov is Neftekhimik's most reliable forward, with two goals in nine games in FNL 2026/2027, and can nick a big moment for the visitors.
Betting Insights
- The odds on Yenisey winning are 1.73.
- Neftekhimik are way out on the far side of the spectrum at 4.97 and the draw at 3.76 looks about right for this clash.
- Under 2.5 goals at 1.82 looks a much sharper market than the moneyline wagers and both teams to score at 1.9 is also available and would be a play for those who like a bit of insurance on the bet.
Prediction
Back the draw in a low-scoring game.
