___________________________________________________________________

For the first time in 2014, Loko play in Kazan'. It will be an historical game because it will be the opening match of the beautiful Kazan' Arena, which is going to host 2017 FIFA Confederation Cup and 2018 FIFA World Cup. Probably it will be full, with about 3.000 red-green fans (the capacity is of 45.105 spectators).

About the match, Rubin arrive with only two points, earned against Terek and Arsenal Tula. In Kazan', as in Rostov, there are a lot of former Loko players. First of all the coach, Rinat Bilyaletdinov, who worked in Cherkizovo with reserves. Then Ryzhkov, Filtsov, Burlak, Kuzmin, Getigezhev, Kambolov, Ozdoev and Mullin. The new idea of Kazan' society is creating a club based on young players and with a warm support of the fans. Recently Rubin have bought also other reinforces, as Sobolev, Kanunnikov and Livaja. The most interesting player, instead, is born and grown up in Kazan': he's left back Elmir Nabiullin. 

Meanwhile Loko have made a record since 2002: making 7 points in the first three matches of the season. With this and other signals, 'Railroaders' arrive in Kazan' with some absents: Yanbaev is injured, while Corluka is disqualified. Kuchuk could make some turnover for the imminent Europa League preliminary round. Seraskhov could debut with the main team, while Pejcinovic substitutes Corluka. In the middle of the pitch there aren't a lot of options: Tigorev and Tarasov are confirmed, as Kasaev. Tkachyov and Niasse will probably start giving some rest to Fernandes and N'Doye.
