NIN vs SO Dream11 Prediction: The match of the 1st round of the Russian Premier League between the teams of Nizhny Novgorod and Sochi will take place at the Nizhny Novgorod Stadium. Nizhny Novgorod is making its debut in the Premier League following promotion from the Football National League. On the other side, Sochi’s 3-0 victory over Keshla showed their readiness for league responsibilities. Not only did they effortlessly scored against their rivals, but also kept a clean sheet.
After only being formed in 2015, Nizhny Novgorod have already made it to the Russian Premier League following their promotion from the second tier last season and it will be fascinating to see how they cope with top-flight football. Their success last season was built on the foundations of a solid defence and that will undoubtedly be new coach Aleksandr Kerzhakov’s approach here. Sochi, meanwhile, enjoyed an outstanding campaign last term by finishing fifth in just their second season in the Russian Premier League and they have been busy in the transfer market recently, notably acquiring promising midfielder Victorien Angban from French side Metz.
