Naturally there is rather scant information available about one of Russia's smaller sides, especially as it's not a typical tourist destination.
We're doing our best to dig up as much information as possible, though, and appreciate that not many fans will be making the trip out to Russia for the game. If you are, though, and if you have any questions that aren't answered on here, by all means email us at the FSF and we'll do what we can to find it out for you.

They won the Russian First Division in 2003, and have now established themselves in the Premier Liha. This will be their first European campaign.
