Chernomorets Novorossiysk

Current form
The team no longer has the right to make a mistake. We can draw interim conclusions based on the results of six rounds. Chornomorets has a peculiar football, there is no specific style, and the team often plays as it turns out.
Four defeats in five rounds looked like a death sentence for the ambitions of the "sailors" in the First League, but the second victory allowed the team from Novorossiysk to slightly improve its position. The club climbed out of the very bottom of the tournament table and currently occupies 14th place with six points to its credit. In the last round, Vadim Garanin's charges hosted Tyumen on their home field and won a much-needed victory in the championship (2:1), having made only eight shots at goal, seven of which were on target.
Disqualifications and injuries
Yuri Budagyan is injured in the team.
Interesting trends for betting
- Chornomorets have not won a single away game this season.
- Chornomorets earned most of its yellow cards (9 out of 13) in the second half
Estimated lineup : Frolkin, Musalov, Stezhko, Chichinadze, Khabalov, Enin, Ivanov, Lanin, Rodionov, Krotov, Uridia
