Midfielder Nail Umyarov sustained an injury on international duty with the Russia U21 team and is a doubt for the Moscow derby. Quincy Promes has been recovering from a recent knee injury and is sidelined until the end of the month. Forward Ezequiel Ponce underwent knee surgery last week and will be out for at least three months. Jordan Larsson, Roman Zobnin, Jorrit Hendrix, Nikolay Rasskazov and Ilya Kutepov are all back in training after recovering from their respective injuries and will be available for selection here. Winger Denis Makarov sustained a muscle injury on international duty and is a doubt for Saturday’s derby. Uruguay international Diego Laxalt remains sidelined due to a thigh injury and will only return to training next month. Daniil Lesovoy will not feature here because of a long-term knee injury.
There have been under 2.5 goals scored in 5 of Dinamo Moscow's last 6 games (Premier League). There have been under 2.5 goals scored in Spartak Moscow's last 3 games (Premier League).
Spartak are going through a good run of form in the league after winning their last two matches and are ready to cause a major upset to Dynamo next time out. Dynamo were surprised by Krylya Sovetov last time out and failed to close the distances to league leaders FC Zenit. Sandro Schwarz’s men have lost two of their last four matches and need to return to winning ways here. The last two times both sides faced off at the Otkrytie Arena, the match ended in a draw. There is a strong possibility of the same thing happening on Saturday in the Moscow derby. 1:1
