Russia's Patriot Boxing Team will be looking to increase their grip on Group C when they host China Dragons in the World Series of Boxing (WSB) tomorrow.

The contest, the only fixture scheduled for week nine of the season, sees the two sides lock horns again after they met in China on March 23.

On that occasion the Patriot Boxing Team won 4-1 in Nanning and they currently top Group C with three victories from four matches.

The fixture in Nanning was the first time the Dragons were in action this season so they will be looking to return to winning ways when they enter the ring for the second time against the same opposition.

However, they will start the best-of-five contest 1-0 behind due to not fielding a fighter at heavyweight, meaning the Russians have been given a walkover.

Action tomorrow will take place at the Grinn Center in Oryol with Rasul Saliev picked for the hosts at flyweight where he will face Guo Zhang.

At lightweight, Shamil Askerov will compete against the Dragons' Yanfei Chen.

Welterweight action will see the Patriot Boxing Team's Shakhabas Makhmudov meet Taximaimaiti Haishaer and at light heavyweight home boxer Rishat Bakirov will face Jilei Zhang.

Sergei Egorov had been picked for the hosts at heavyweight but will not need to compete.
