AT vs RBK Dream11 Prediction: Arsenal Tula follow up their trip to Lokomotiv Moscow with a home game against Rubin Kazan on Friday night in what is a tough run of fixtures at the start of the new season. Rubin Kazan secured an important win over Spartak Moscow last time out but need to follow that up with another win against an Arsenal side that look set for another relegation battle.
The home team come into this on the back of a defeat at the hands of Lokomotiv Moscow last week in which they lost 3-1 and had a man sent off. Arsenal Tula had led with ten minutes to go but a 79th minute red card gave way to Rifat Zhemaletdinov to score a brace and a Fyodor Smolov goal as they collapsed. They come up against a Rubin Kazan team that are expected to be very stubborn to break down after a 1-0 win against Spartak Moscow. The home team only managed one shot on target and, given they come up against a Rubin side that kept a clean sheet against a strong Spartak, this should be a win to nil for the visitors.
Date: 30 July, Friday Time: 9:30 PM (IST) Venue: Stadion Arsenal, Tula
