The two sides will square off in the exciting duel between the two mid-table Russian teams. A close game is expected but I'd expect a certain team to edge out the triumph.

Attacking midfielder Amar Rahmanovic is recovering from a recent ankle injury and is doubtful for Friday’s match. Goalkeeper Bogdan Ovsyannikov is still undergoing treatment for a long-term knee injury and is expected to return to training next week. Iranian winger Mohammad Mohebi remains sidelined with a foot injury and is likely to be out for another three weeks. Midfielder Aleksey Mironov is also out due to a long-term knee injury. Russian winger Ivan Komarov sustained an injury during the training camp and is likely to miss Friday’s visit to Samara. In other news, goalkeeper Daniil Odoevsky has joined FC Rostov on a season-long loan from FC Zenit.

Krylya Sovetov Samara have seen over 2.5 goals in their last three home matches against FC Rostov in all competitions. However, they have failed to win their last six matches in the Premier League. In their previous match, Krylya Sovetov had a rough start to the league, losing 4-0 at home to FC Zenit. They will need to perform much better if they hope to secure at least a point next time out. FC Rostov, on the other hand, held CSKA Moscow to a draw in their last match and are looking to get their first win of the season here. Based on both teams’ performances last weekend, FC Rostov are slight favorites to take all three points on Friday.

双方将在两支排名中游的俄罗斯队之间展开激动人心的对决。预计会有一场势均力敌的比赛，但我希望有一支球队能险胜。

攻击型中场拉赫马诺维奇正在从最近的脚踝伤势中恢复，能否参加周五的比赛尚不确定。门将奥夫辛尼科夫仍在接受长期膝伤的治疗，预计将于下周恢复训练。伊朗边锋默罕默德·莫赫比仍然因为脚伤缺阵，可能还要缺阵三周。中场球员阿列克谢·米罗诺夫也因为长期的膝伤缺阵。俄罗斯边锋伊万·科马罗夫在训练营中受伤，很可能缺席周五对萨马拉的比赛。另外，门将奥多耶夫斯基从泽尼特租借到罗斯托夫一个赛季。

在最近三场主场对阵罗斯托夫的比赛中，萨马拉的进球超过了2.5个。然而，他们在最近的六场英超比赛中未能获胜。在上一场比赛中，索维托夫在联赛中开局不佳，在主场0 - 4不敌泽尼特。如果他们希望在下次比赛中至少拿到一分，他们需要表现得更好。另一方面，罗斯托夫在上一场比赛中逼平了莫斯科中央陆军，他们希望在这里取得本赛季的第一场胜利。从两队上周末的表现来看，罗斯托夫有可能在周五拿到全部三分。
