Yenisey — Spartak Kostroma : Match Preview and Prediction for October 19,2025

Yenisey’s Current Struggles

This season is proving to be exceptionally challenging and intense for numerous teams in the FNL, and Yenisey, despite having a notable coach, is currently grappling with significant difficulties. Their recent victory in the last round offered a slight reprieve, elevating their position marginally in the league standings.

Yenisey’s Offensive Woes and Recent Form

Prior to their most recent match, the Krasnoyarsk outfit was distinguished by possessing one of the weakest offensive records in the Russian championship. Furthermore, Yenisey has consistently struggled to generate attacking opportunities in their home fixtures, managing a mere 3 goals across 7 matches played at home, securing only one victory. While they recently defeated Volga, they also endured a demanding Russian Cup encounter just days ago, where they narrowly lost to Ufa on penalties. Curiously, they initially took the lead in that cup tie, but subsequently found themselves under relentless pressure for the remainder of the game.

Spartak Kostroma: The Season’s Revelation

Spartak Kostroma has undeniably emerged as the standout revelation of the current season. This dynamic club, which has only recently ascended to the First League, has captivated audiences with its vibrant performances. Remarkably, Kostroma only relinquished its top spot in the league standings during the very last round, allowing Fakel to move ahead.

Spartak Kostroma’s Potent Attack and Impressive Away Form

Indeed, we are witnessing the most potent attacking force in this championship. Alongside KAMAZ, Spartak Kostroma has outscored every other team this season. Unfortunately, their matches in Karavaevo have concluded, and they will now be moving to a new home ground. Nevertheless, the Kostroma-based team has also demonstrated impressive form on the road, dropping only two points across seven away fixtures – a clear testament to their league-best away record. As a newcomer to the league, they have achieved notable success against both Ufa and SKA, an impressive feat considering the challenging travel logistics. Although the team has been eliminated from the Cup, this occurred some time ago, not in their most recent fixture.
