Down the Table

At the foot of the table, the relegation scrap is already intensifying for the division's basement sides. FC Kamaz Naberezhnye Chelny occupy bottom spot with just two points, desperately searching for a breakthrough to halt their early-season slump. Just above them, Ska-Khabarovsk languish on three points, while FC Leningradets sit on five points and Tekstilshchik Ivanovo hover on six points. With safety within touching distance, a single positive result could transform fortunes for the strugglers, but continued slips threaten to leave them marooned in the drop zone.
