Match Preview :
Russia vs Saudi Arabia match is going to be held on 14-th June at Luzhniki Arena (Moscow)
This is first match of world cup 2018 because of that both team have to show us their best skills, combinations, tactics to start group stage successfully.
Russia national team got into the finals of the Mundial and automatically were granted the right to host the tournament. That’s why Cherchesov’s men never took part in the qualification games.
Saudi Arabia are being a rare visit of the FIFA World Cup: last time this national team visited Mundial in 2006. They lost all three games and left the tournament ahead of schedule.
But since then their performance evolved and they proved themselves to perform much better already in the qualification for 2018 World Cup.
The Favorite Team is Russia because they play at home, But Saudi’s Arabia will try to take minimum one point or win the match.
