Our predictions for Torpedo Moskva vs Fakel
Match Prediction: Torpedo Moskva 2-1 Fakel
Torpedo Moskva will be looking to bounce back from their recent defeat against Ural, and with home advantage, they might just have the edge. Their recent form shows resilience, especially with a solid win against KAMAZ and a high-scoring victory over SKA Khabarovsk. Fakel, on the other hand, have been inconsistent, struggling away from home, which could be their undoing.Torpedo Moskva will be looking to bounce back from their recent defeat against Ural, and with home advantage, they might just have the edge.

Fakel’s recent draw against Shinnik showed some fight, but their back-to-back losses prior to that highlight defensive vulnerabilities. Torpedo’s attacking duo, Shitov and Tsypchenko, could exploit these gaps. Expect a closely contested match with Torpedo edging it.Fakel’s recent draw against Shinnik showed some fight, but their back-to-back losses prior to that highlight defensive vulnerabilities.

Fakel
Fakel’s form has been a rollercoaster, with two wins followed by a couple of disappointing losses. Their recent draw against Shinnik showed some resilience, but the defensive frailties exposed in their losses to Chayka and Rodina Moskva are concerning. They’ll need to tighten up at the back if they hope to take anything from this fixture.Fakel’s form has been a rollercoaster, with two wins followed by a couple of disappointing losses.

Head-to-Head Record
The head-to-head record between these two sides is fairly balanced, with both teams having tasted victory. Fakel’s recent 2-0 win in November 2025 will give them confidence, but Torpedo’s 1-0 victory in March 2022 shows they can hold their own. Previous encounters have been tight affairs, often decided by narrow margins, suggesting another closely fought contest is on the cards.The head-to-head record between these two sides is fairly balanced, with both teams having tasted victory.
