THE PREDICTION
The late in the window loss of Alex Kral on loan to West Ham United will be a concern for Spartak Moscow as they look to fill a hole in the midfield. They have started the season with a gradual improvement after elimination from the UEFA Champions League in the early qualifying rounds coincided with an inconsistent start to their league campaign. The hosts did stall again, though, before the international break. Defeat at home to Sochi means that they have won just two of eight games in all competitions. They now come up against a Khimki side that have had back-to-back 1-1 draws against Rubin Kazan and Nizhny Novgorod highlighting a stubbornness yet a ceiling to their performances. That should frustrate Spartak and a low-scoring encounter looks the likely outcome in this one.
