Dynamo has stayed without Zaytsev who went to Perugia but brought Bakun, the best scorer of 15/16 season who had great season so I would not be sure they are worse on opposite position this season than previous one. His substitute will be Ilinykh who came back to Russian league from Qatar and who played very well in preparation matches being best scorer, while on the reception position they saved their trio Berezhko, Biryukov, Markin which is great as well. Shcherbinin and Filippov stayed in the middle-blocker position as Holt left but on the setter they have Granking and Antipkin who was 1st choice of Belgorod last year which is also position with two great players. Ural has also strenghtened their roster but still they are level below Dynamo. Dynamo has lost to Belgorod 3-0 in last preparation but lost 2 sets on pts difference, without Grankin. Yes, Ural is home team here but I expect Dynamo to win this one 3-0 or 3-1.
