Today, Svidler is not playing against Slovenia while Grischuk is playing. It does not matter who is playing actually since whole the field is over 2700. Azerbaidjan also won with a narrow 2.5-1.5 against Denmark. The only win of Azerbaidjani team came from "Shak" Mamedyarov against Peter Heine Nielsen, one of the most prominent opening experts in modern chess.
