Ufa
Ufa started the season with a 0-1 defeat, but this was no surprise as it came against CSKA Moscow, one of the contenders to win the league this season.
Last season, Ufa were the third worst-performing home team in the competition, winning only three of their 15 home games.
In 12 meetings between the two teams, Ufa have never beaten Dinamo Moscow, instead drawing four times and suffering eight defeats.
Dinamo Moscow
Dinamo Moscow started the season with a 2-0 away win over Rostov.
Dinamo Moscow used to be one of the best teams not only in Russia, but in the whole of Europe. During the Soviet Union era, they were a team who would regularly win titles, but over the last few decades they have suffered a drought and have become a second-rate team. However, this season it looks like Dinamo may have the squad to fight for the title.

Despite Ufa playing at home, Dinamo Moscow should fare well here – they have a far superior squad, and they proved to be a strong away team in the opening match against Rostov.
