Volga Ulyanovsk and Murom meet in the Russian Cup, with the hosts having just finished their league game with a 2-2 draw, while Murom are on a winning run in the league and have just come through the previous round with a 1-0 win in the cup. The two teams therefore walk onto the pitch with clearly different feelings. Volga Ulyanovsk have won 4 of 14 games in their own league, scoring 18 and conceding 21; they are a team whose defence is not yet steady, but at home in the first half they have seen goals in 6 of 7 matches and often go in at half-time trailing. Murom, meanwhile, arrive on a run of 5 straight wins, scoring 48 and conceding 18 from 25 games in their own league; they are a team that dominates possession and clearly allows fewer shots on target than their opponents. The pattern of play is likely to see Murom hold more of the ball and gradually probe for an opening, while Volga Ulyanovsk must beware of conceding late in the first half and early in the second. If the hosts are still behind at half-time as they have been in several recent games, the match will tilt even further towards the visitors.
