Team News

CSKA Moscow
Lokomotiv Moscow
  • Brazilian defender Willyan Rocha sustained an injury in last round’s match at Krasnodar and will not feature here.
  • Midfielder Maksim Mukhin missed the Russian Cup match in midweek due to a minor injury and is a doubt for Sunday’s derby.
  • Forward Adolfo Gaich left the club again to join Antalyaspor on a season-long loan.
  • Defender Lucas Fasson has been recovering from a recent injury and is a doubt for the upcoming match.
  • Apart from the Brazilian defender, head coach Mikhail Galaktyonov has a full squad to choose from ahead of the Moscow derby.

Prediction

  • CSKA were defeated at Krasnodar last weekend and failed to impress in the midweek Russian Cup match against FC Pari NN. Marko Nikolic’s men will need to do much better if they want to win Sunday’s derby.
  • Lokomotiv seem to be going through a good moment of form after two consecutive wins in the league. The Moscow outfit scored seven goals and conceded none in the last two league matches and will surely offer CSKA a close contest here.
  • A draw is the most likely result for the Moscow derby.
