AT vs SPK Dream11: Arsenal Tula’s two match winning run came to an end last time out as they lost 1-0 to Rostov. Still locked in a relegation fight, three points for them here would be worth their weight in gold, however they face a Spartak Moscow side who desperately need three points for their own reasons. Three points here combined with a Zenit victory over Lokomotiv Moscow would see Spartak Moscow move into second-place and a Champions League qualification spot. No doubt Arsenal Tula will put in a huge effort and having won their last two home league games, scoring five goals in the process they are more than capable of finding the net and potentially causing a surprise against the heavily favoured visitors. Therefore, whilst Spartak Moscow should have enough quality within their side to edge victory, both teams to score is well worth considering.
