Kamaz Nab Chelny

vs

FC Nizhny Novgorod

Tips, Stats and Odds

Nizhny Novgorod are undefeated in their last 5 matches in all competitions (W4, D1) and will come into Sunday's game at Kamaz Nab Chelny ready to continue where they left off. Their three most recent results have been a 0-0 win on the road at Spartak Tambov, a 0-3 home tie against Shumbrat Saransk and a 4-2 home win over Rotor Volgograd.

Vadim Garanin has them playing a vertical, possession-based game with flexible structures and they will get their chance to put some pressure on Kamaz on Sunday as the visitors are the better structured team.

Kamaz have won 1, tied 1 and lost 3 across their last 5 in all competitions, so their form line looks patchy at best, but the trend looks positive.

They have been able to put pressure on their opponents when they have been on the front foot, which is usually the case in Kamaz games as their style of play is to use fast wing play and counter-punching. Anton Khazov has built Kamaz around a 4-2-3-1, with fast wing play and counter-punching, but he can also set them up as a compact, set-piece-minded block when they need to.

Nizhny Novgorod are second in the FNL 2026/2027 table with 3 points from 1 match while Kamaz are sixteenth with 0 points from 1. Both teams' form suggests that Nizhny should have the advantage on Sunday, but the odds and the game don't add up to a runaway. Under 2.5 goals (1.79) and BTTS-No (1.96) sit right in the mix, while a narrow away win is most likely.

Roman Manuylov is Kamaz's top scorer in this competition with 1 goal in 1 match so he will be key to their cause on the night. Nizhny Novgorod's main goal threat is Artem Sokolov, who has 1 goal in 1 FNL 2026/2027 game, so he will be vital in the penalty-box.
