ORN vs UFA Dream11 Match Preview, Team News, Lineups
After flirting with the relegation last season, things have taken a turn for the good for FC Ufa in this current season so far. On current form, they look a good bet for a top-10 finish, which should be the minimum target for this club.
While FC Orenburgn’s 3rd season in the top flight is imploding into the worst nightmare for both the fans and manager. Without a win in the first seven games, and propping up the table heading into this game, it already looks like a long and an arduous journey for survival, and an uphill task considering their problems both in front of the goal and at the back.

FC Ufa Team News:
- Attacking midfielder Dmitri Sysuyev and young center-back Danil Krugovoy both will miss the game for the hosts due to their respective injuries.
- Expect Sylvester Igboun to miss the game as well due to his impending departure from the club.
- In addition, forward Andrey Kozlov picked up a knock last weekend and will be monitored before the game. While Ufa could also be without Andrés Vombergar who is recovering from an ankle injury.
Possible INs and OUTs of this game:
- Head coach Vadim Evseev has his options cutback upfront due to the unavailability of Sylvester Igboun, and if Andrey Kozlov fails to recover in time, the situation will be even more grave for the host team.
- So we could see Lovro Bizjak starting the match here if Kozlov is not fit to start the game.
- Bojan Jokić more than justified his place at left-back with a solid display against the mighty Zenit Saint Petersburg last weekend. The 33-year-old should start ahead of Azer Aliyev here as well.
FC Ufa Probable XI:
Belenov (GK), Tabidze, Nedelcearu, Putsko, Sukhov, Thill, Carp, Fomin, Aliev, Giorgobian, Bizjak
Orenburg FC Team News:
- Orenburg will once again miss their versatile star Georgi Zotov. The 29-year-old has missed the last five games due to a knee injury.
- Attacking midfielder Ricardo Alves was an unexpected exclusion from the matchday squad last week, with the manager Vladimir Fedotov revealing in his pre-match interaction that the 26-year-old was not at 100% for the game. The visitors could once again be without their no-10 here as well.
- Centre-back Edi Gutliv is struggling with a muscle injury of late and could miss the game against FC Ufa.
Possible ins or outs of this game:
- Andrea Chukanov and Sergei Terekhov both battles for a place at left-back. Though, the latter seems to be ahead in the queue at the moment and could start once again.
- Head coach Vladimir Fedotov made two changes in his forward positions for the last game. Both Žiga Škoflek and Fedor Černych played alongside main striker Đorđe Despotović against Arsenal Tula and should continue here as well.
- Expect Joel Femeyeh to feature from the bench.

Rudenko (GK), Kozlov, Shakhov, Sivakov, Terekov, Skoflek, Miskic, Afonin, Malykh, Chernykh, Despotovic
