Croatian forward Marko Dugandzic is back in training after recovering from a long-term injury and might be available for selection here. Versatile forward Maksim Barsov remains sidelined due to a persistent injury and is likely to miss Saturday’s match. Japanese midfielder Kento Hashimoto missed last round’s match in Cherkizovo due to a minor injury, but is already back in training and will probably be available to help his team this weekend in Sochi. FC Rostov are yet to appoint a new head coach after Yuri Semin’s departure and for that reason, Zaur Tedeev will continue to act as the team’s caretaker manager.
After back-to-back defeats, PFC Sochi pulled off a surprise win over FC Zenit in Saint Petersburg last time out. Vladimir Fedotov’s men haven’t won a home match since September, but they are favourites to get the three points here. After four matches without a win, FC Rostov earned an unexpected victory over Lokomotiv Moscow in Cherkizovo last time out and are surely hoping to cause another major upset to PFC Sochi this weekend. 1:0
