In this 14th week match, on Sun Oct 23rd, Spartak Moscow and Khimki will play a match in Moskva in a Premier League match. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 5 degrees, so hopefuly the match makes up for the weather. In their last match, Spartak Moscow recorded a 2-2 draw against CSKA Moscow. Fedor Chalov scored the first goal for CSKA Moscow in the 17th minute, then Anton Zinkovskiy tied it up for Spartak Moscow in the 53rd minute . With 19 points in their last 10 matches Spartak Moscow should be reasonably happy with their performance, while 15th placed Khimki is fresh off their 0-0 scoreless draw against Fakel. Neither Khimki nor Fakel could manage to put one past the goalie. They had 16 and 19 shots on net respectively, but no one could score, and the match ended in a 0 – 0 draw,. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 5 points in their last 10 matches.
This match will be the first time these two teams face eachother this season. Last season these teams were evenly matched with 1 win each.
Khimki’s top weapon lately has been Ilya Kukharchuk, who has 2 goals in the last five matches. Aleksandr Sobolev has been on a hot streak lately. In the last 5 games, the attacker has scored five goals for Spartak Moscow.
