Description: AT Vs KHMK Dream11 Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: Bottom of the league clash comes bearing with it gargantuan ramifications for today’s opponents.
While we are still in the early exchanges of the Russian Premier League 2020-21, today’s impending matchup could have a massive say in this season’s relegation squabble. With Arsenal Tula and Khimki finding themselves in the trenches of the league standings currently, this forthcoming square off will serve as a massive boost in the arm for the winners.
And its Arsenal Tula who carry a clear edge ahead of the day’s fixture. The side finally managed to curb a run of three matches without a win the last time around with the side pulling off an empathic and well rounded 2-0 win against Dynamo Moscow.
That result is set to buoy them when they go at loggerheads against a Khimki team struggling to come to terms with the brand of football found in the Russian Premier League. The club registered its second straight defeat and overall third loss in four encounters in gameweek 4 with the 2-1 result to Akhmat Grozny leaving the side bereft of a win in the showpiece competition.
AT Vs KHMK Dream11 Probable Winner
In 15th place with that result, Khimki have made for sore viewing in the first couple of weeks in the new season of the league. The side has offered nothing on either front, a team which has failed to show why it made the cut into the league this season.
For them, today’s encounter is one they just can’t afford to lose. Arsenal Tula haven’t been the most precise of teams in the league till now either, a team which offers Khimki a chance to take on a levelly balanced opposition.
This will be a closely contested affair, one we envisage going down to the culminating stages with the Tula just about squirming their way to a one goal win.

Dream 11 Picks
Goal-Keeper
Ilya Lantratov from Khimki has been our choice as the goal-keeper whenever the team has been in play and the same will be the case today. The shot stopper has unnervingly waged a lone battle for the side, leaving no stone unturned to try and clampdown on opponents with his articulate brand of goal-keeping.
Defenders
Up against a side which has scored just two goals and has failed to score in 50% of its affairs till now, Arsenal Tula will be quietly confident of a cleansheet today. Khimki have been a howler of an attacking unit, a side consisting of tired legs, a team which has offered no kind of sings of going on an uptick.
This is sorry brand of football which the newly side has immersed us in which sees up roll in a triad of picks from Arsenal Tula here. All of Daniil Khlusevich, Kirill Kombarov and Robert Bauer are inducted into our framework owing to the aforementioned narrative.
Midfielders
Kings Kangwa has been in sensational touch for Arsenal Tula. With a goal and assist to his name, the home side’s player has torched his way to some resplendent performances to make him a must have pick for the tie.
Sitting in next to his is the vibrant and robust Igor Gorbatenko whilst we have decided to induct a triad from Khimki in this gambit. And it was only befitting of venturing in with the selection of Aleksandr Troshechkin with the player having scored the only club the side has to its name till now.
Maksim Matusevich and Artem Polyarus are snagged by us on the basis of their defensive merit. Tenacious players, their ability to maul sides and mar them with their tackles and blocks has helped the side bolster an otherwise paper thin backline.
Strikers
Arsenal’s leading scorer with two goals in his kitty, our docket will begin with the pick of Danilil Lesovoy who has the two goals to his name. He finds company in Evgeni Lutsenko whose endeavours have translated into the one goal and one assist for the club.
Captain And Vice-Captain
Having both scored and created a goal, Evgeni will be leading our side out as the captain while Danilil is the vice-captain.
