On Sat Aug 6th, in week 4, Ural hosts Spartak Moscow at Ekaterinburg Arena in a meeting of these two extremely mismatched Premier League teams. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy but warm day with daytime temperatures of 21 degrees, which will be a great treat for players. In their last match, Ural recorded a 1-3 loss against Krasnodar. Sergey Borodin struck first for Krasnodar in the 28th minute, then Spertsyan added another in the 59th minute. Ural looks to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 7 points in their last 10 matches, while spartak Moscow is fresh off their 4-1 win against Orenburg. Christopher Martins Pereira scored the first goal for Spartak Moscow in the 2nd minute, then Aleksandr Sobolev added another in the 12th minute. Spartak Moscow is looking for direction having earned 14 points in their last 10 matches.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season, so it will be interesting how the match turns out. Last season Spartak Moscow won the head to head battle with 2 wins.
Quincy Promes has been the most effective weapon for Spartak Moscow lately. The Dutch attacker has netted three goals in his last 5 matches. Eric Bicfalvi has been the most effective weapon for Ural lately. The Romanian midfielder has netted 2 goals in his last 5 matches.
