നിഷ്നി നോവ്ഗൊറോദ് vs ആഴ്‌സനല്‍ തുല

Pari NN top the FNL and welcome Arsenal Tula on 30 October with a big gap to close for the visitors. The hosts have 37 points from 14 games and a goal difference of +28. Arsenal Tula sit on 16 points from the same number of matches, with three wins, four draws and seven defeats. Form points one way. Pari NN have won their last five, including a 5-0 against Yenisey and a 6-0 against Leningradets, and most recently won 2-1 at Ural. Arsenal Tula beat Spartak Kostroma 3-2 at home on 9 October, then lost 2-0 at Ufa a week later. That made it four away league defeats in a row. The history is closer than the table suggests. Arsenal Tula won two of the four meetings since 2021, including a 2-1 win in Nizhny Novgorod in the 2024 play-off first leg. Pari NN won the return 2-0, and the other game was a 2-2 draw. Our prediction: 3-0
