Anzhi
- Zeljko Brkic was suspended for the weekend's league game at Siena but is available to replace Padelli in Europe and should start.
- Pablo Armero should also return to the side in place of Pasquale on the left with Barreto continuing in support of lone front man Di Natale due to Muriel's injury.
- There is competition for places in the midfield, with Allan given the nod over Pereyra, Willians and Faraoni last time out.
- Goalkeeper Vladimir Gabulov missed Anzhi's last league game through injury and Pomazan could continue to deputise in goal.
- Yuri Zhirkov has recovered from injury, coming off of the bench at the weekend, and could be in line for a place in the XI in a line-up also including familiar names such as Christopher Samba and Lass Diarra.
- Undoubtedly the star man for the club however, Samuel Eto'o has scored 5 goals in 7 league games this season in a decent partnership with big man Lacina Traore.
Really interested to watch Anzhi. Udinese have had a terrible start. Away win
Anzhi win 2-1. Etoo strikes back!
