When "a host-team" means a host of injured

The first half of the season is coming to the break. Baltika FC will play just one home game. On July 6 our opponent is Vityaz from Podolsk and on 9 of July - Nosta Novotroitsk but away. But before these two games Baltica played Shinnik Yaroslavl. In the late 90's we faced Shinnik in Russian Top League which called "Vyshaya Liga". 

This club was tough for us even then, we won at home with the minimal score, we lost there conceding four goals. Before the last match with L.Tkachenko taking the post the statistics was for Yaroslavl. They were successful in Kaliningrad six times in a row, almost each time scoring twice. As the process of the match showed it happened again in 2009. Baltica started emotionally and didn't allow the rival to control the centre of the pitch, trying to offense and shoot as often as possible. Even though our shots weren't as precise as they were supposed to be, the opening goal was near. But the clock was ticking and the scoreboard showed a o-o draw. Even Dzidich of Baltika fired some meter distance into the cross-bar, burying as it may have seemed then the last one-hundred percent scoring opportunity for Baltica in the game. At 64' Oleksich of Shinnik finished his team offense with a good shot opening the score and at 73' Reznikov reminded that Shinnik had scored twice here in 2007 and therefore the result repeated. Unfortunately but Baltica was too tired physically that day having the whole bench of injured players to add positive emotions to the mood after the winning game in Vladikavkaz a matchday before. 
Lineup: Baranovsky - Matyola © (Babich 76'), Timofeev, Popov, Revyakin - Okorochkov, Krystafovich, Kolomiychenko, Dzidich (Kenkishvili 69')- Golubov, Egorov. 
The next matchday was played without Baltika as our team missed it due to the calendar. This fact lead to our 11th place with 21 points at the moment. 
Today on 1 of July we are playing 132 Russian Cup match-up in Moscow against Torpedo-ZIL. In case of a victory on July 15th Baltica faces Khimki in the round of 116.
