Team News

FC Krasnodar
CSKA Moscow
  • Versatile defender Alexander Ektov left the club to join FC Pari NN on a season-long loan.
  • Forward Fyodor Smolov is being treated for a recent injury and will be out for at least two weeks.
  • Russia U21 international Alexander Koksharov remains sidelined due to a long-term injury and will not feature here.
  • Chilean midfielder Víctor Méndez is undergoing treatment for a recent knee injury and is likely to miss out here.
  • Defensive midfielder Maksim Mukhin is again available for selection after recovering from a long-term injury.
  • Russia international Fyodor Chalov left the Moscow outfit to join PAOK FC from Greece.

Prediction

  • FC Krasnodar failed to get anything better than a draw from last round’s visit to Voronezh and are yet to win a league match this season.
  • CSKA hammered FC Orenburg last time out at the Russian capital and are surely motivated ahead of Saturday’s important match. The Moscow outfit scored eight goals in their last two matches and remain undefeated in the league.
  • Although the visitors seem to be going through a better moment, a draw is the most likely outcome for Saturday’s match at Krasnodar.
