CSKA will face Zenit in the first match of the Russian Cup Final RPL Way today. Current Form of CSKA Despite struggling in the league, CSKA has managed to secure their place in the Russian Cup final RPL Way. The team is currently sitting in 8th place in the Russian Premier League with 38 points, considerably fewer than the leaders and is out of the running for top positions in the league. A recent 1:3 defeat to Baltika emphasises the team's struggles, yet they've proved resilient in the Cup matches, maintaining an unbeaten run of 8 matches - 4 wins and 4 draws, with clean sheets in half of these matches. Vladimir Fedotov's squad's form leading up to the Cup final is questionable, with only 2 victories in the last 8 matches. Those two victories, though, against Krylia Sovetov and Fakel with a scoreline of 2:0 and 4:1 respectably, might lodge some hope for a decent performance in the final. The defeats suffered against Akhmat and Baltika remind us of the inconsistency that CSKA experiences, which is why they're now mostly focusing on winning the Cup, a chance to make up for their disappointing league season to some extent. The Russian Cup Final will give CSKA an opportunity to prove its resilience and ability to fight and conquer despite the season's difficulties. Current Form of Zenit Zenit always is a favourite in the Russian Premier League, however, this season they've experienced a set of unexpected challenges that threw a spanner in their league dominance. The St. Petersburg team, having fortified in the off-season, started the season with volatility, before finding their feet and moving top of the standings, overtaking Krasnodar. Even after unexpected points drops against Rubin (0:2) and Dynamo (0:1), Zenit is maintaining the lead, however, the advantage over the pursuers has been diminished to the bare minimum. Sergei Semak's charges secured their place in the final of the Russian Cup RPL Way effortlessly after a 0:0 draw with Spartak, extending their successful run in the tournament, which includes 4 victories and 1 defeat. It's crucial to note that Zenit, boasting a strong and deep squad, can display top-level football even amid increasing competition. Ahead of the final against CSKA, Zenit will likely not risk all their key players given the upcoming fight for the championship and the reverse fixture in St. Petersburg. Semak might employ a strategy focusing on defence and counterattacks, considering CSKA's robust and consistent playing style, especially in defence. Head to Head The teams last faced each other on 3rd September 2023 as part of the RPL, which ended at 1:1. Prior to that, on 15th July 2023 in the Super Cup match, Zenit had a 1:0 victory over CSKA. On 19th March 2023 during another RPL match, CSKA emerged victorious over Zenit at 1:0. On 13th August 2022, in a home RPL match, Zenit defeated CSKA 2:1, and on 28th November 2021, also as part of the RPL, Zenit overcame CSKA 2:0 at their home ground. Match Prediction for CSKA - Zenit The recent derby between Dynamo and Spartak showed how the winning team can stall the game, especially when two leading Russian teams are involved, both in their worst form lately. I place a bet on the total goals score to be under 2.5, considering the two tie-match clash, no one will risk it. In the previous mutual encounters, the total goal score hasn't been achieved six times in a row.

An exhilarating encounter between Ural and Rostov is slated to occur today, as part of the Russian Cup semi-finals in the Path of Regions. Ural's current form Ural is experiencing an inconsistent this season under the management of Viktor Goncharenko, struggling to find stability in play. The team has shown signs of improvement recently, despite the ongoing crisis. This was particularly noticeable after the winter break, when Ural lost to Akhmat and Zenit with scores of 0:1 and 1:4 respectively. However, subsequent matches have shown varied results: a draw against Spartak (0:0), a loss to Krylya Sovetov (1:2), and a victory over Dynamo (2:1), propelling them to 13th place in the RPL table.In the current Russian Cup campaign, Ural also demonstrates fluctuating results. After finishing third in the group stage and failing to overcome competition from Lokomotiv and Rostov, they managed to secure victories over Rodina (2:1) and Lokomotiv (1:0) at the 1/16 and 1/8 finals stages. In the latest Cup match against Lokomotiv, Ural made it to the semi-finals of Path of Regions thanks to a Emerson goal at the 7th minute. In the last 5 matches across all tournaments, Ural lost only once, won three times and drew once, scoring 5 goals while conceding 4. These results suggest a slight improvement in the team's performance as they continue to fight for their survival in the RPL and aim for success in the Russian Cup. Rostov's current form Rostov significantly improved their performance in the Russian Premier League (RPL) and the Russian Cup after the winter break. Much of this increased interest in watching the team that is managed by Valery Karpin is largely because of the coach himself. In their last five RPL tours, Rostov won victories over Krylya Sovetov (2:0), Krasnodar (2:1), Dynamo (4:1), and Fakel (1:0), scoring 9 goals while only conceding 3. This successful streak helped the team climb to the 8th position in the league table. In the Russian Cup, after finishing the group stage in the second position, Rostov made it to the 1/4 finals of the RPL Path, losing to CSKA with an aggregate score of 1:3 in two matches, after which they switched to the Regional Path. Here, the team showed tenacity, defeating Khimki in penalties (7:6) following a goalless draw in regular time. Later in March, Valery Karpin was named the best coach of the month in the RPL, underlining his team's recent successes. Rostov showcases an aggressive and attack-oriented style of play this spring, creating numerous dangerous opportunities and jostling for high spots in the RPL. Karpin actively employs transfer acquisitions, especially Ronaldo, who scored crucial goals in the last two matches. Head-to-Head In the recent head-to-head encounters between Rostov and Ural, both teams have 2 victories each. On November 2, 2023, in the Russian Cup, Rostov won with a score of 2:1. In the RPL on September 29, the teams drew 2:2. On August 8, Ural won with a score of 1:0, and on April 23, in the RPL, Rostov confidently won 3:1. On February 27, in the Russian Cup, Ural also won with a score of 2:1. Match prediction: Ural - Rostov Rostov looks more interesting at this point in the season and after a disappointment in the RPL, the team management clearly desires to make it to the Cup final.

Orenburg and Dinamo Moscow are set to battle today in the semi-finals of the Russian Cup regional path. Current Form of Orenburg Orenburg has been reliably competitive in the last 8 matches from various tournaments, including the Russian Premier League, Russian Cup, and friendlies, suffering only one loss. The team under David Deograsiya noticeably improved in gameplay after a winter break, achieving victories against Baltika (1:0), Rubin (3:0), and Pari NN (3:1). Keep in mind, all these matches took place on their home ground. Away from home, Orenburg managed to avoid defeat against CSKA (1:1) and Fakel (0:0). In the current season of the Russian Cup, despite an early loss to CSKA due to a rapid player digital, Orenburg is on a confident run at home, defeating Sochi (2:0) and Spartak (1:0), along with a draw against Fakel (0:0). In the most recent stage of the national tournament, the team prevailed against Akhmat (1:0) in the quarterfinal factor, exhibiting their ability to win crucial away matches. The only goal of this match came from an own goal by Satarov at the 88th minute. The squad also appears solid in preparation for the semi-final of the Russian Cup, which shows the productive work of the coach during the off-season. Orenburg holds one of the leading positions in home matches in the Cup, having avoided defeat in 6 out of the last 7 home games during regular time. This solidifies their status as a tough opponent on their home turf. Current Form of Dinamo Dinamo Moscow is showing inconsistent and, more often, poor results this season, especially in defence. This is reflected in their recent performances across all tournaments. In the Russian Cup, the team successfully bested the previous round of the regional path, defeating SKA Khabarovsk 2:1, with goals scored by Vyacheslav Grulev and Fabian Balbuena. This triumph marks the fourth win in their last five games in the national Cup, despite one loss. In the Russian Premier League (RPL), Dinamo suffered a 1:2 away defeat to Ural, conceding the decisive goal in added time. This marks their third consecutive loss in the championship. The Marсello Licky-led squad holds the third position in the RPL's league table, trailing by 5 points from the second place, underscoring their difficulties in keeping up with league leaders such as Zenit and Krasnodar. Dinamo's defence, having conceded in 7 out of the last 9 cup matches, is showing weaknesses; and mistakes by the teams Number 1 goalkeeper Leshchuk in the RPL, have exacerbated the situation. In the current Russian Cup tournament, the team has played four away matches, losing heavily to Spartak (1:4) in regular time, as well as facing defeats from Krasnodar and Pari NN in the penalty shootout following 1:1 draws. Head-to-Head In recent encounters between Dinamo and Orenburg, results have varied. On 12th November 2023, Dinamo won the match 2:0 in the framework of the RPL. On 3rd of June the same year, the encounter ended decisively in Orenburg's favour with a score of 3:0. In the Russian Cup, on January 22 and November 27, 2022, Dinamo also secured victory, with a minimal advantage of 1:0. However, in the RPL match on October 15, 2022, the Moscow team faced a more challenging opposition and won with a close score of 3:2. Match prediction: Orenburg - Dinamo Dinamo appears to be progressively losing chances of a successful performance in all tournaments. Orenburg is certain to give a strong fight, but I don't foresee a high scoring match as Orenburg could score and then defend, or inversely. Thus, the betting odds do not point to a clear favourite. I would like to bet on fewer than 3 total goals.

In the 1/4 final grid of the Russian Cup, there are no clashes where after the first match one team managed to effortlessly carve out a lead for the second round. Even the Moscow-based "Spartak" managed to lose away to "Orenburg", and now at the "Lukoil Arena" they will have to upset the apple cart and strive to win. Otherwise, the seat underneath Guillermo Abascal, head coach of the popular Moscow club, may genuinely tip him from his position. Spartak Yearly in Spartak, there are frequent discussions about the termination of the incumbent coach, whoever they happen to be. We remember that Paulo Vanoli and Domenico Tedesco experienced periods at the "red-and-whites" where they were not threatened with this risk of dismissal, the truth being these coaches left of their own accord, achieving decent results in the club. The situation for Guillermo Abascal is different, having achieved nothing significant with Spartak in almost 2 seasons, the perception remains that he's an "unknown" trying to make a name for himself in Russia. The season for Spartak is proceeding routinely, with streaks of good results, followed by failures, or a combination of both. After the winter break, Abascal's players surprised the crowd, matching Zenit in St. Petersburg, but almost immediately in the next tour, a poor match against Fakel sparked again the discussions about the head coach's potential dismissal. Spartak indeed has a good squad, even without Quincy Promes. Ugalde, for instance, is a great acquisition - they found a sound link in the centre of defence, and yet, the failures continue. Tomas Tavares is back from injury and even made the squad for the match against Fakel; Moses returned to the ranks, so supposedly there's no issue with the team's depth, so why did we see problematic football from the Muscovites at the "Luzhniki"? It seems like the answer lies with Guillermo Abascal, especially if Spartak doesn't advance into the semi-final of the Russian Cup. Undoubtedly, losing to Orenburg means nothing for "Spartak" as they have the regional route, but as for Guillermo Abascal, a failure to progress in the quarter-final of the Russian Cup could serve as grounds for the Spaniard's dismissal, particularly before the international break - a window which could provide an opportunity to swiftly replace him as the head coach of the Moscow club. Orenburg Under Deograsia, Orenburg manages to present structured football, yet the team is on the 14th junction and is trying to contest to maintain their placement in the RPL. After the restart, Orenburg managed not to lose to CSKA in Moscow, even managing to sneak in a goal from Matthias Perez. Then there was the main clash with Baltika on their home turf, which the players of David Deograsia struggled to win despite being less productive in terms of creating scoring chances. Deograsia's Argentinians are good, as are all the foreign players he has they're all praiseworthy. Jimmi Marin is in prime condition, although under the Spanish coach he's a bench warmer, it was he who delivered Orenburg 3 points in the match against Baltika, with an assist by Emirdzhan Gyurlyuk, who appeared on the field alongside him. It's tough to predict whether Deograsia's team can secure even a draw against Spartak, but it's wise not to rely on Abascal's players having another lacklustre match in attack and several defensive failures. Head-to-Head It was from the match against "Orenburg" at their home stadium that "Spartak" kicked off this season, winning 3:2, where Daniil Khleusevich was marked with a brace. Quincy Promes and Theo Bongonda each assisted on a goal. In the first cup match, "Spartak" was defeated by "Orenburg" away with a minimal score of 0:1, conceding a penalty at the game's start - Oleg Ryabchuk received a red card at the end of the first half. Match prediction: Spartak - Orenburg Considering the dynamic attack of Orenburg and the disorganised composite defence of "Spartak", perhaps, we can look at the option with total over 2.5 goals in the match, because Spartak cannot afford to lose, they need to win by at least 1 goal, and if we consider either of the two possible scenarios: a confident win by Spartak or a defensive failure, then we can rely on our chosen bet passing. I doubt that there will be a modest match in terms of goals.

Today another quarter-final match of the Russian Cup Path RPL will kick-off. Fans of Russian football are set to witness a clash of teams that battled for medals last season but are now positioned outside the top-3 and are just planning to enter the fight for the pedestal of honour. 'Rostov' will host Moscow's CSKA at their home ground. Rostov For the 2023-2024 season, 'Rostov' is not performing well and seems to be merely a pale shadow of the team that performed brilliantly last spring, struggling until the last round to break into the top-3 and finally securing the 4th place in the Mir-RPL tournament table. The players, guided by Valery Karpin, displayed an excellent start to the season and for a while, positioned themselves among the strongest teams of Mir-RPL. However, Rostov stumbled towards the end of August and throughout September. It all started with away defeats from Sochi and Pari NN with a total score of 5:0. Following this, the yellow-blues lost to Dinamo, were defeated by 'Krasnodar', and scraped only 1 point each in games against Baltika, CSKA, and Ural. Currently, Rostov has started to bounce back from this crisis, slowly climbing up the tournament table and approaching the top-8. 'Rostov' suffered their last defeat in their encounter with Spartak, losing 0:2, while their face-off with 'Pari NN' ended in success. In the group stage of the Russian Cup Path RPL, 'Rostov' competed in group 'B' and settled for the 2nd position in the quartet with Lokomotiv, Ural, and Kazan's Rubin. CSKA (Moscow) The silver medallist of the 2023-2024 Mir-RPL season is not performing as steadily and confidently in the current regular season. The Reds had a great spring stint in the championship, knocking Moscow's 'Spartak' off the 2nd position, who got bogged down but managed to defeat CSKA in the derby. At this point, CSKA ranks 6th in the Mir-RPL tournament table, which is significantly below the abilities and potential of the current red-blue players. The reason for this is the level of competition in the tournament table. The 'Army Men' only need 1 victory to reach the 3rd position, and the championship leader from St. Petersburg has only gathered 8 points more. In their latest matches, CSKA has been less stable than desired, managing to gather only 1 point against Fakel and losing to Moscow's 'Dynamo'. Before this, CSKA managed to beat 'Krasnodar' and 'Pari Nizhny Novgorod' in extremely close matches. Vladimir Fedotov's charges gathered one point each in the games against 'Spartak' and 'Rubin'. In the group stage of the Path RPL Russian Cup, the red-blues were successful, emerging as the winners of Group 'A', surpassing 'Orenburg' for the 1st position based on additional indicators. Head-to-Head CSKA and Rostov have faced each other in 69 official matches. CSKA has claimed 37 victories, while 'Rostov' has won 18 face-offs. The teams have failed to decide a winner 14 times. Prediction The teams will not manage to determine a victor. 'Rostov' is a formidable player at home, this year Valery Karpin's devotees haven't allowed 'Zenit', 'Lokomotiv', and even CSKA to celebrate victory on their turf, as the latter left Rostov-on-Don with just 1 point. An action-packed match should not be expected, with the main events of the confrontation set to take place in Moscow in 2 months' time.

The opening match of the PFL Cup Russia 1/4 final between Moscow's Spartak and FC Orenburg. The teams have had variable performances in the Russian Championship, securing spots in different halves of the Mir-PFL league table. Spartak is battling for medals, situated firmly in the 4th position, whilst Orenburg is in a tough battle for survival. Spartak (Moscow) Spartak Moscow got off to a promising start in the 2023-2024 season with many pundits considering the red-and-whites as favourites for the title. They put in splendid performances for five consecutive rounds, but after a loss to Ural, their results took a significant downturn. Consistency seemed to be a thing of the past, with Spartak performing well in the derby against CSKA, but then losing away games against Voronezh's Fakel and Krylia Sovetov with an aggregated score of 6:0. To their credit, Spartak has gone unbeaten in their last three fixtures, defeating Baltika and Rostov, with the only stalemate against Lokomotiv. In the PRL Cup group stage, Spartak reigned supreme in their group, securing the top spot after four rounds, leaving behind Pari NN, Moscow Dynamo, and Krasnodar. FC Orenburg Orenburg, in its second consecutive season at the Mir-PFL level, is struggling in comparison to its earlier success. Marcel Licka was the previous standout of Orenburg, but he moved on to lead Moscow Dynamo. Jiř Jarok became the new manager but couldn't hold on for long, citing personal issues, and left the club while it occupied a lower table spot, staring relegation in the face. After suffering a 6:0 thrashing by CSKA in the Russia Cup, David Deogracia took over and managed to stabilise the situation somewhat. Still, the state of affairs at Orenburg remains bleak. However, in the PFL Cup, Orenburg secured the second spot in Group A, edging out Sochi and Fakel, with only CSKA performing better. In their last seven matches, Orenburg recorded just one point, which is definitely a psychological blow. Head-to-Head Spartak and Orenburg have met in 10 official matches. Spartak has claimed six victories, while Orenburg has come out on top three times. One match ended in a stalemate. Prediction Spartak should secure the victory. They've shown more consistency in recent matches, going unbeaten in the last three. On the flip side, Orenburg hasn't claimed victory since the 4th of October, displaying less than prolific football. Orenburg has failed to score more than one goal in seven consecutive matches.

Today the central match on the Path of the Russian Premier League Cup Wednesday kicks off. Fans of Russian football anticipate a confrontation between two creative and offensive squads that never yield a dull moment. Moscow's "Spartak" will host "Krasnodar," a team motivated for victory to advance to the play-off stage of the Russian Premier League Cup. Spartak (Moscow) Spartak" Moscow continues to keep its followers on tenterhooks, playing yet another season marked by inconsistency. During the 2023-2024 season, "Spartak" fans relished the joy and absolute confidence of leading their team. However, as autumn approached, the red-and-whites lost their mojo and returned to their somewhat unstable gameplay, with losses to "Krylia Sovetov," Voronezh's "Fakel" and "Ural". After 13 matches of the Russian Premier League season 2023-2024, "Spartak" gathered 20 points, taking 6th place in the table. "Spartak" is 2 points behind "Krylia Sovetov" from Samara, who are at the 3rd position. In the last 5 matches, "Spartak" fell 3 times, losing to "Fakel", "Dynamo" and "Krylia Sovetov". "Spartak" gained points when they met "Pari NN" and CSKA. In the Cup of Russia, "Spartak" pleases its numerous fans. The red-and-whites secured 4 successive wins and claimed the top spot in the group. In the latest cup encounter, "Spartak" was beaten 3:0 by "Dynamo" Moscow. This loss had more psychological than tournament consequences. No matter what, "Spartak" will take the 1st place and participate in the play-off stage of the RPL. FC Krasnodar "The Bulls" became the revelation of the first half of the 2023-2024 season. "Krasnodar" started the Russian Premier League season with a few wins, then began consistently triumphing, delivering a shock to the journalists and football community witnessing their game and point accumulation. The Krasnodar club remained unbeaten for 12 championship matches, staking out the top spot in the tournament table of the Premier League. "Krasnodar" suffered its first loss in an away match against CSKA Moscow. "Krasnodar" conceded only 1 goal, which proved victorious for the red-blues. In the Path of the Russian Cup, "Krasnodar" performed less impressively, prioritising success in championship matches. After 5 matches played, "Krasnodar" occupies the 3rd place in the Group "D" table, ahead only of "Pari NN" who have lost their chance to continue the Russian Cup run. "Krasnodar" gathered 8 points and in the event of a victory will secure the 2nd place, although much depends on "Dynamo". Head-to-head "Spartak" and "Krasnodar" met in 31 official matches. "Spartak" claimed 19 victories, while "Krasnodar" proved stronger in 10 confrontations. Two other matches ended in a draw. Prediction "Krasnodar" will triumph. "Spartak" will play conservatively, keeping in mind their upcoming championship match against "Lokomotiv," which is crucial from a tournament perspective. Victory is more vital for "Krasnodar" in this match, where the fate of the "bulls" and their place in the play-off stage of the Russian Cup will be determined. The "Spartak" coaching staff will field an experimental lineup, as the leaders rest ahead of the meeting with "Lokomotiv".

The final round of the group stage of the Path-RPL Russian Cup in football is getting underway. Today teams from the group will cross the finish line - Zenit from Saint Petersburg and Kaliningrad's Baltika. Zenit (Saint Petersburg) The current champion of Russia in the 2023-2024 season is no longer the force that sweeps away all obstacles and keeps everyone away from the 1st place in the World-RPL. At present, "Zenit" from Saint Petersburg holds the 2nd place in the World-RPL, racking up 2 points fewer than Krasnodar, which leads the tournament table and may lose points again shortly. "Zenit" had a weak finale in the World-RPL matches in September, falling to Lokomotiv and Orenburg. After two disastrous matches, the club from Saint Petersburg has not been defeated in four consecutive games. The sky-blue-whites first bested Baltika and FC Sochi, then, in the framework of the Russian Championship, came out on top against "Akhmat" and Krylia Sovetov from Samara. With 1 round to go before the completion of the group stage of the Path-RPL Russian Cup, Zenit is leading the tournament table of the Quartet C" In the Russian Cup, "Zenit" triumphed over Akhmat, Krylia Sovetov and Baltika. The only defeat occurred in a match against Baltika, when the club from Kaliningrad hosted a home game and came out stronger with a score of 2:1. To retain the 1st place, "Zenit" needs to beat Baltika or wait for a misstep by "Baltika". "Baltika" (Kaliningrad) The World-RPL's 2023-2024 season debutants are sitting in 15th place in the championship tournament table, which is not a disaster. Players from Akhmat and Orenburg are situated just two points behind Baltika. Baltika performs much better in the Path-RPL Russian Cup than in the World-RPL. While the club from Kaliningrad is on the brink in the Russian Championship, they notably realised their potential in the group stage of the Russian Cup, securing an excellent 2nd place ahead of the final round. In the group stage of the Russian Cup, Baltika pulled off three victories, having triumphed against Akhmat, Zenit, and Krylia Sovetov. Evaluating based on Baltika's recent official matches, the club from Kaliningrad has defeated Orenburg, was weaker than Rubin, but was on par with the championships top-seated Krasnodar - whose first defeat in the 2023-2024 season came only recently. Baltika will secure a 2nd place in case of victory over Zenit and a stumble by Akhmat. Head-To-Head As part of the Russian Cup, "Zenit" from Saint Petersburg and "Baltika" have clashed three times. The team from Saint Petersburg, "Zenit", lays claim to two victories, while "Baltika" has come out stronger in one encounter. Forecast Zenit will come out victorious within the main time. The club from Saint Petersburg has strong motivation, and this implies that they simply cannot be discounted. Especially considering that in Round 1 of the Russian Cup, the sky-blue-whites fell to Baltika, with the Kaliningrad side celebrating their victory emphatically. Zenit will certainly want to set up barriers for those who, for whatever reason, have proven stronger than them on the football pitch.

Today a match for the Path RPL Russian Cup will begin between teams currently showing weaker performance compared to the previous season. FC Sochi, last in the line-up in the Premier Football League (Mir-RPL), will compete against Orenburg - the group "A" leader that beat Zenit on their home field just a few days ago. Orenburg Last season, the Orenburg's players showed outstanding results in the Mir-RPL, finishing in the upper half of the tournament table. They even surpassed Moscow's "Dynamo". However, the rostering changes during the off-season significantly affected the team's state. "Orenburg" had to part ways with their head coach who brought the team back to Russia's football elite. Marcel Lischka, who decided to level up, signing a contract with Moscow's "Dynamo". The team was taken over by Irzhi Yaroshik. Still, he failed to accomplish set objectives. Technically, he wasn't let go from his duties, but everyone understood it was only a matter of time, as "Orenburg" won just one out of the first 8 matches of the season. The team is now led by David Deogracia, who has significantly improved the current situation. With the Spanish expert at the helm, "Orenburg" moved up to the 11th spot, distancing itself from the promotion play-offs. In the Russian Cup, "Orenburg" leads the quartet and holds good chances of advancing to the Path RPL play-offs. Sochi The representative from Sochi complied with a silver medalist of the Mir-RPL a couple of years ago, but the team slid to the last place in the recent tournament. Alexander Tochilin's charges initially maintained a decent average level for season start, defeating "Baltika" and "Rostov" in the championship. Since then, Sochi experienced a streak of bad luck. The last victory of "Sochi" dates back to 19th of August, when they scored 4 goals against FC Rostov. The "Leopards" havent been able to win or even score a single point in their last seven official matches. Aging players, alongside newbies, proved unable to positively influence results in the Championship and the Russian Cup. After the first 4 group stage matches of the Path RPL, Sochi is in third place in the group, having managed to collect five points due to their victory against Fakel and their loss to CSKA via penalties. Head-to-Head Sochi and Orenburg met in seven official matches. Orenburg came out victorious from four matches, while Sochi recorded a single win. The other two encounters ended in a draw. Prediction Orenburg will collect 3 points. Sochi is currently not in very good form, failing to win in their seven last matches consecutively, which has psychological repercussions and raises doubt about the trust in the head coach's operations. They will have a tough time combating the invigorated Orenburg under the tutelage of their new coach.

The cup confrontation between two status teams, lacking consistency and simple luck at the start of the season. Fakel Voronezh will host the CSKA footballers on their home turf, who were defeated in an away match as part of the 1st round of the group stage of the Russian Premier League Cup journey. Fakel (Voronezh) At the end of the last season, Fakel Voronezh took only 14th place in the Premier League standings and went into playoff matches, where after two encounters, they overpowered Yenisey. Fakel retained its elite division status, but currently, things are sometimes panning out worse than last season. Currently, Fakel Voronezh ranks 14th in the Premier League standings and has scored just two points more than FC Sochi, holding the 16th position. Fakel Voronezh recently announced the resignation of Vadim Evseev, who hasn't spent much time at the club, but remains a hero in the fans' memory for saving Fakel from relegation to the First League after the last season. Sergey Tashuev is still familiarising himself with the team and won't show immediate results. Fans can be pleased with the victory over Sochi, which strengthened Fakel's position outside the drop zone. In the Russian Cup, the Voronezh team beat CSKA and lost to Orenburg on penalties, allowing them to score 4 points. CSKA (Moscow) The summer-autumn part of this season for CSKA is not as successful as the spring period of the previous championship. The "Army Men" performed more consistently and dropped points rarely. Nowadays, CSKA still rarely loses but often draws, giving up important points needed for the championship race. During this interval, CSKA ranks 7th in the Premier League standings, but the density is high and there are only 3 points to the 3rd position, where Lokomotiv is stationed. The red-blue team has not lost for 7 matches in a row in the Premier League and the Russian Cup. In Group A, Moscow's CSKA holds 2nd place, trailing 1 point to Orenburg. Victories over Orenburg and two successes with FC Sochi counted in CSKA's favour. CSKA lost to their rivals from Voronezh on their home ground by the minimum score. Vadim Evseev was still in charge of Fakel at the time. Head-to-Head "CSKA" and "Fakel" have played 16 official matches. CSKA was stronger in 9 games, "Fakel" won 3, and 4 matches ended in a draw. Prediction "CSKA" will earn 3 points. "Fakel" won the last round of Sochi in the Premier League and for the time being, that's the maximum for the Voronezh team. The new coach is setting his rules, and the players are only getting used to them. This will take time, which the leaders, who are stronger and more cohesive in all the parameters, will use. CSKA has not lost in 7 matches in a row, while "Fakel" only recently snapped a series of defeats. Exact Score Prediction I'll bet on the exact score of 0:3.

An intriguing match is set to kick-off in Samara. Krylia Sovetov, who recently outplayed the Moscow-based Spartak, will host the players of Akhmat, who have been performing better in the Russian Cup than their forthcoming rivals. Fans of Russian football are in for a head-to-head duel for a spot in the Path of the Regions. Krylia Sovetov (Samara) Last season, the Samara-based club secured their place in the RPL World only in the final round by defeating Spartak Moscow at home. Now, Krylia Sovetov is experiencing their best moment in the past few years in terms of results, team composition, and quality of play. The Samara-based footballers have forced everyone this season to take them more seriously. Currently, Krylia Sovetov ranks 2nd in the RPL World leaderboard, ahead of Lokomotiv Moscow by 3 points. Krasnodar, leading in the RPL World, is 3 points behind. In the RPL Cup's Path, Krylia Sovetov's performance is weaker. In 4 matches, Krylia Sovetov has only achieved 1 victory, earning 3 points against Baltika. Before that, Krylia Sovetov lost to Zenit, Akhmat, and Baltika. In their last 5 encounters, Krylia Sovetov hasn't lost, having successfully played against Krylia Sovetov, Baltika, Sochi, and Spartak. In the encounter against CSKA, the Samarans gathered 1 point. Akhmat (Grozny) The start of the 2023-2024 season did not go as planned for the Grozny-based club. Last season, Akhmat finished 5th, achieving a historic achievement for themselves, but now it is down to a fairly low 10th position. Akhmat went through a change of coaches, after which the results were somewhat improved, but a climb from the lower half of the leader board is yet to be seen, especially as the Grozny club hasn't won in its last 4 matches. The last victory was on September 2nd, after which Akhmat drew against Krasnodar and Dynamo. Akhmat was left point-less in the match against Baltika. In the Russian Cup, Akhmat's performance is inconsistent, averaging one point per match. The Grozny club is in 3rd place, thanks to a victory over Krylia Sovetov and a penalty shoot-out loss against Zenit. Head-to-Head Meetings Krylia Sovetov and Akhmat have met 36 times in official matches. Akhmat won in 19 encounters, Krylia Sovetov secured 11 victories, and 6 confrontations ended in a draw. Forecast Krylia Sovetov will take all 3 points. The club from Samara is currently in high spirits after a crushing victory over Spartak and hasn't lost in 5 consecutive matches, whereas Akhmat is experiencing the opposite situation. The club from Grozny still hasn't recovered from the season's initial flop and will likely save the main players for the championship, where it's important to gain points and move away from the relegation zone.

Russian Cup 2023/2024. RPL (Russian Premier League) Route. Group stage. Fifth round. The last match of the game day on Tuesday will pit Lokomotiv Moscow against Rostov Rostov-on-Don in Group B for the first place. One of the teams in this match will definitely secure its participation in the RPL route playoffs. Lokomotiv Moscow Lokomotiv set forth a peculiar scenario if they got a rather poor start in the RPL and were sited at the tail of the standings. However, the situation turned opposite in the Cup, two victories in the initial matches catapulted Lokomotiv to the top. Yet, two subsequent defeats, albeit one being on penalties, slightly grounded Lokomotiv from the clouds. On the other side, Lokomotiv's RPL run had been successful, and the team is now in the RPL's top three. But here we are mulling over the Cup where Lokomotiv shows a goal difference of four scored to three conceded, i.e., 1. The main question arises at the moment when Lokomotiv spurred in the regular RPL championship, whether it will go Cup-wise, preventing issues. Lokomotiv happens to be the most titled club of this tournament. Logically, an exit at the group stage is not an appealing prospect for such a team. Rostov Valeria Karpina's team, Rostov, is a quirky fruit, much like his national team. But Rostov, they play a lot, they score a lot, but either they miss matches with a two-goal difference or, on the contrary, with incredible difficulty, mount such match comebacks. In the Cup, Rostov has three wins; two came in regular-time matches, and one in a penalty shoot-out. Hence, after four matches, Rostov has 8 points and only one defeat, which places them top of Group B and almost guarantees them at least to regional route playoffs. However, to make it to the RPL clubs' playoff, they need to beat Lokomotiv at their home ground. Head-to-Head Lokomotiv and Rostov have played 65 matches against each other. Of those, Lokomotiv won 37 matches, while Rostov won only 10 matches, with even more draws, specifically 18. In the Cup, however, Rostov turned out to be stronger with a score of 2:1. Prediction Betcity offers odds of 1.76 for a win by Lokomotiv, while the odds for a win by Rostov are 4.50. A draw in this match provides odds of 3.90. With this, I propose to bank on Lokomotiv's victory. Galaktionov's team has gained momentum; outperforming Zenit in their recent match and is now trying to reassure a tranquil spring in the Cup.

The concluding match of the 3rd tour in the group stage of the Russian Cup Path RPL. This game unfolds in Rostov-on-Don where Valeri Karpin's charges are to face off with the Moscow-based "Lokomotiv". "Rostov" (Rostov-on-Don) Mir-RPL "Rostov" in the previous season secured their 4th position, managing to go behind only the big three eternal grands of Russian football. The season of 2023-2024 has started off on a high note for "Rostov". Under Karpin's leadership, the team beat "Fakel", kicked off the group stage of the Russian Cup with a victory against "Rubin", and denied "Zenit" the opportunity for a second consecutive win to take away 3 points from Rostov-on-Don. However, in recent matches, things have not been as smooth. In the past 5 official matches, "Rostov" secured victory only once, besting "Rubin" comprehensively in a home game with a score of 3:0. In three other matches of the championship, "Rostov" lost to "Pari NN", "Krylya Sovetov" and FC "Sochi" with a total scoreline of 10:1, ending up in 10th place by the end of the 6th tour. "Rostov" gained 3 points from 2 matches in the Russian Cup. The previous season's "wooden medalist" beat "Rubin" but lost to "Ural". "Lokomotiv" (Moscow) The spring part of the last season Mir-RPL revitalised "Lokomotiv's" fanbase's faith in their team. Going into the current season, devotees of the "railway men" harbored ambitions of a championship campaign. However, after 7 match days, Lokomotiv's position in the tournament table does not quite align with the fan's championship aspirations. Mikhail Galaktionov's side registers in the 8th position after 7 rounds, winning just 2 matches. "Lokomotiv" bested FC "Sochi" and Voronezh's "Fakel". Their only loss came against CSKA while they played draws three times. The red-green team gathered a point each from games against "Krylya Sovetov", "Krasnodar" and "Rubin". Although they didn't lose to the tournament leader, the results aren't championship-worthy. In the Russian Cup, however, "Lokomotiv" sits at the head of its group, defeating "Rubin" and "Ural" with a goal margin. Head-to-Head In their past 5 meetings, "Lokomotiv" and "Rostov", Karpin's side came out the stronger of the two. "Rostov" stacked up 3 victories, while "Lokomotiv" secured only a lone triumph. They also had a match which ended in a 2:2 stalemate. Prediction Expect "Rostov" to come out victorious. Karpin's side has demonstrated character, and can step up in trying times as it faces now. The yellow-blues have lost 2 matches in succession, and a home victory against a formidable opponent will invigorate the team and instill a sense of confidence.

The initial whistle will sound in Kaliningrad. As part of the Russian Cup's RPL Path, the rookie Mir-RPL team from Kaliningrad will face the best team of the last five years. Baltika (Kaliningrad) After 6 rounds of the 2023-2024 season, the team from Kaliningrad sits in the 15th place. Baltika's debut in Mir-RPL may not have been the most successful in terms of results, yet the essence of their gameplay leaves little to be questioned. The charges of Sergei Ignashevich do not park the bus in front of their own goal like some teams but strive to play from a position of strength and favour an attacking style. In Mir-RPL, Baltika suffered 5 losses, submitting in matches against Soch, Spartak, Dynamo, Ural, and Krylia Sovetov. The only successful match for Baltika occurred in the confrontation with Voronezh's Fakel. In the Russian Cup, Baltika has delighted their fans, securing victories in all of their 2 matches, defeating Akhmat and Krylia Sovetov. Against Zenit, it could be challenging, especially considering that Sergei Semak's team has come out of the crisis they struggled with at the beginning of the season. Zenit (Saint Petersburg) The current Russian champion has not had the best start to the 2023-2024 season. "Zenit" from Saint Petersburg, after 6 rounds, is currently sitting in the 2nd spot on the league table, trailing Krasnodar by one point. Such circumstance came about due to the crisis Zenit went through at the start of the season. This was even noticeable in the first round match against Pari NN, however, the St. Petersburgers got lucky at that time. Evidence of Zenit' struggles was also seen in matches against FC Rostov and Moscow's Dynamo. Zenit failed to hold onto a minimal victory in Rostov-on-Don and for the first time in a while, they lost on their home turf to the Moscow team. Now Zenit has found their rhythm and started picking up victories, defeating Fakel, Spartak and Ural in the Russian Championship. Head-to-Head Zenit and Baltika faced each other in 11 official matches. Baltika came out on top in 6 matches, while Zenit succeeded twice. In 3 matches there was a draw. Prediction Zenit will secure a victory. The team from Saint Petersburg has emerged from their crisis and has started to rack up victories. Baltika is impressive in the Russian Cup; however, their daring football style will inevitably play a cruel joke on the hosts.

Fans and lovers of Russian football are about to witness a duel between Moscows CSKA and FC Sochi. FC "Sochi" The team from Russia's resort capital didnt have the best start to their latest season in the Russian football elite. The spring decline of the last season persisted as evident from the league standings. After 6 matches played, FC Sochi occupies the 12th spot and only outperforms Rubin, whos in the relegation playoff spot, based on additional indexes. In 6 championship matches, "Sochi" incurred 4 losses and won 2 games. The charges of Dmitry Khokhlov succeeded against FC "Rostov" and "Baltika". Matches turned out to be unsuccessful against "Lokomotiv", CSKA, "Krasnodar" and "Akhmat". In 2 Russian Premier League Cup matches, "Sochi" accumulated 3 points. The southern team outplayed "Fakel" and lost to "Orenburg". CSKA (Moscow) In the second half of the last season, Moscows army men displayed their best qualities and put up a great segment of play, both in terms of results and content, allowing them to push back Spartak and secure the 2nd place. In the 2023-2024 season, CSKA is performing slightly worse. After the initial stretch, the last seasons silver medalists occupy the 6th position in the league table, trailing Krasnodar, the table toppers, by just 4 points. The charges of Vladimir Fedotov suffered 2 defeats in 6 matches, succumbing to "Dynamo" and "Ural". In both matches, CSKA lost with a score of 2:1, which indicates an ongoing struggle throughout the match and the absence of one teams dominance. The red-blue performed well in matches against "Akhmat", "Lokomotiv" and "Sochi". They played consistently in these matches, quite contrary to the red-blues performance in the Russia Cup. In the first round, the "army men" secured a 6:0 victory over "Orenburg", but in the second match of the tournament, they surprisingly lost to Voronezhs "Fakel". Head-to-Head "Sochi" and CSKA have met in 13 official matches. In 7 meetings, "army men" turned out to be stronger, while "Sochi" players celebrated victory 4 times. The remaining 2 matches ended in a draw. Prediction CSKA will secure the victory. The Moscow team hasnt won the last two matches and needs an immediate recovery from their psychological slump, especially after Voronezh's deficit made CSKA treat the upcoming cup matches more seriously.

The face-off in Grozny commences. Fans anticipate the third round of the Russian Cup RPL Path battle between "Akhmat" and Samara's "Krylia Sovetov". "Akhmat" (Grozny) Last season, the Grozny team showcased their best-ever result in the Mir-RPL, securing the 5th spot. "Akhmat" performed excellently in the spring part of the season and deservedly finished in the top five. However, the starting stretch of the 2023-2024 season didn't prove as successful. "Akhmat", after playing 6 matches, is situated in the 11th place in the league table and is only 1 point ahead of Kazan's "Rubin", positioned in the transition matches zone. "Akhmat" won two Mir-RPL matches, seizing 3 points in bouts against "Orenburg" and FC "Sochi". In other engagements, "Akhmat" underperformed, with their game against "Spartak" in the previous round, earning them only 1 point being the only exception. After their disappointing performances, Sergey Tashuev was dismissed, under whose leadership "Akhmat" suffered defeats in the Russian Cup from "Baltika" and "Zenit". "Krylya Sovetov" (Samara) In the previous Mir-RPL season, "Krylya Sovetov" held onto the 12th spot, ensuring their place in Russian football's elite only by the results of the match in the finale round against "Spartak". The starting stretch of the 2023-2024 season is turning out to be fantastic for "Krylya Sovetov". In the first round, "Krylya Sovetov" defeated "Akhmat", thus sparking a successful series of Mir-RPL matches. The only defeat in the Russian Championship "Krylya Sovetov" has suffered so far was from Kazan's "Rubin". In matches against "Rostov" and "Baltika", the team from Samara snagged 3 points, putting them currently in the 4th spot, just 3 points behind "Krasnodar". In the RPL Path of the Russian Cup, however, "Krylya Sovetov" has been struggling, already facing 2 defeats in the group stage. Firstly, "Krylya Sovetov" shockingly lost to "Baltika", and then suffered a minimal defeat from "Zenit". Head-to-Head Matches "Akhmat" and "Krylya Sovetov" have faced off in 35 official games. "Akhmat" has emerged victorious in 18 matches, and "Krylya Sovetov" has clinched 11 wins. 6 bouts have ended in a draw. Prediction "Akhmat" is set to triumph. The Grozny team will seek to avenge the defeat from the first round. Their last outing against "Spartak" showed that the unruly "Akhmat" side is making a comeback and is ready to steal points in matches with their direct rivals.

One of the most anticipated group stage matches of the RPL Path is scheduled to take place on 29th August. The ultimate rivalry of Moscow's oldest derby will be settled on the pitch by the players of Moscow's "Dynamo" and "Spartak". Spartak (Moscow) Spartak Moscow had an excellent start to the 2023-2024 season and was considered one of the main contenders for the championship over a series of rounds. The Red-and-Whites confidently outplayed their opponents and were on top of the Mir-RPL and the Russian Cup standings. However, an away match with "Ural" has seriously undermined the Moscow team. The Red-and-Whites lost to "Ural", succumbed in a crucial match against Zenit, and failed to outplay Akhmat on their home turf. The most titled club of the Russian championship fell to 7th place in the standings, already trailing 4 points behind Krasnodar, which leads alone. In the RPL Path of the Russian Cup, Spartak has not yet suffered defeat. They had a phenomenal match in Krasnodar, where they dominated over the leader of the Mir-RPL throughout the match, and proved their superior class at home against Pari NN. Dynamo (Moscow) Moscow's Dynamo had a suboptimal last season, ending up at a disappointingly low 9th place for a team with such a rich history. During the offseason, Dynamo has improved its coaching position. Marcel Lichka, formerly of "Orenburg", is now at the helm of the White-and-Blues. Under the Czech specialist, Dynamo couldn't secure a victory in the first three matches, losing to "Krasnodar", Pari NN, and managing just 1 point in a match against "Krylia Sovetov". The first victory occurred against Saint Petersburg's "Zenit". For the first time in a long while, the Moscow team outplayed "Zenit" in Saint Petersburg, starting their ascent up the league table. Marcel Lichka's charges overcame Krasnodar in the Russian Cup, outclassed Baltika and CSKA in the Mir-RPL. In their latest match on 26th August, Dynamo drew against Rubin. Head-to-Head Matches In the last 5 meetings between Spartak and Dynamo", the red-and-whites have had the upper hand. Spartak triumphed in two encounters, as many ended in a draw, and Dynamo gathered full points just once in their last 5 matches against Spartak. Prediction Spartak will secure a victory. Despite their decline in recent matches, the important bout with a major rival should provide a boost on an emotional level. Due to the status of the match, Abascal is likely to field a full-strength squad, featuring Spartak's strongest foreign players who have an individual edge over their Dynamo counterparts.

The starting whistle will resound in Nizhny Novgorod. "Pari Nizhny Novgorod" will continue its streak of home games with a cup match against the solitary leader of the tournament table. The footballers of "Krasnodar" will visit Nizhny Novgorod. "Pari Nizhny Novgorod" In the 2022-2023 season, the team from Nizhny Novgorod landed only in the 13th place and remained in the World-RPL. Sergey Yuran preserved his post and began to strengthen the team, asking management for financial investments in new transfers. Football players, who have already played in the World-RPL, arrived in Nizhny Novgorod, yet their results are not the most stable. After 6 games, "Pari NN" is ranked 10th, with 7 points accrued. Sergey Yuran's team continues to follow the defensive strategy from last season's end. "Pari Nizhny Novgorod" has scored just 3 goals in 6 games, but only conceded 5. In the World-RPL, "Pari NN" has won against "Rostov" and "Akhmat" on home ground. The team has encountered problems with getting points on the road. They lost to "Fakel," "Krasnodar," and drew with "Ural." Deserving mention in the Russia Cup are the home victory in the penalty shootout against "Dynamo" and the thrilling match with "Spartak," which ended in a 5-4 loss. "Krasnodar" Last season, the "bulls" finished in 6th place in the World-RPL. After the winter break, Vladimir Ivic took over and the team picked up the baton. Gradually rising up the table, the black-greens could have finished in 5th place but lost to "Akhmat" in the final round. In the 2023-2024 season, "Krasnodar" is playing admirably. After 6 rounds, the "bulls" are leading the table, one point ahead of "Zenit" from St. Petersburg. "Krasnodar" triumphed in matches against "Dynamo," "Pari NN," "Sochi," and "Orenburg"; however, they only obtained 2 points in the last two games. The black-greens failed to beat "Lokomotiv" and "Fakel". In the Russia Cup, "Krasnodars" situation is catastrophic - they lost in two matches and are now at the bottom of group "D." Head-to-Head Meetings "Krasnodar" and "Pari NN" have faced off in 10 official matches. "Krasnodar" secured 6 victories, while "Pari NN" did well in 3 matches. One match ended without identifying a clear victor. Prediction "Pari NN" will secure a victory. "Krasnodar" will surely alter their lineup, and many of their leading players wont venture onto the field, considering the upcoming match against "Spartak" in the championship. On their home turf, "Pari NN" beat "Rostov," "Akhmat," and "Dynamo," only conceding to the reigning champion of Russia in the first round.

The cup confrontation between two bottom half teams of the World-RPL. In Voronezh, Fakel will play against Orenburg. Fakel (Voronezh) The hosts of the upcoming match finished 14th in the last World-RPL season, securing the rights to compete in Russian football's elite in playoff matches against Yenisey Krasnoyarsk. After 6 rounds of the current season, Fakel's position hasn't changed, the team from Voronezh occupies the 14th place, having earned only 4 points. Vadim Evseev's wards seem to have forgotten how to play defence during the offseason. Fakel, which used to concede few goals in the final matches of the previous season, now has its defence overwhelmed. Fakel has kept a clean sheet only twice in 6 rounds, and only claimed one victory. They beat Pari NN at their home ground by the smallest margin and achieved a sensational victory over CSKA in the Russian Cup, which allows Fakel to hold the 2nd place in group "A". Fakel has not lost or conceded any goals in their last two games. On August 25, Voronezh earned 1 point in a match against the World-RPL leader - Krasnodar. Orenburg The team from Orenburg took a high 7th place in the 2022-2023 season, beating Dynamo Moscow over 30 rounds. During the off-season, Marcel Lichka left the team to work at Dynamo, where he will try to restore the team's former greatness. Orenburg was led by Irzhi Yaroshik, but his tenure as head coach was not a long one. The team performed poorly, seldom winning, and it seemed that Yaroshik's mind was elsewhere. Distractions in his personal life led him to leave Orenburg, with the team languishing in the bottom place without a victory in the championship. Orenburg has only secured 2 points, drawing against Rubin and CSKA. In the Russian Cup, Orenburg beat Sochi but suffered a crushing 6:0 defeat on its home ground at the hands of Moscow's army men. Head-to-Head Fakel and Orenburg have met in 13 official matches. Orenburg emerged victoriously in 9 encounters, while Fakel triumphed 3 times. There was only one draw between them. Prediction Fakel will claim the victory. Given Orenburg's current state after the departure of their head coach, coupled with Fakel's two-game unbeaten streak and clean sheets, it is clearly in Fakel's favour, especially as the match will take place in Voronezh always a challenging visit for away sides.

The Russian Premier League Cup schedule of the 9th of August will conclude with another match in Moscow. The footballers who clashed during the 2023-2024 season will take the field at the VTB Arena. For the second time in a month, Dynamo Moscow will be playing at home against Krasnodar. Dynamo Moscow In the off-season, Dynamo saw a change at the helm with Marcel Lichka, former manager of Orenburg and Dynamo Brest, taking charge. The Czech specialist wasn't able to kick things off with an immediate success, as the sky-blues claimed only one victory in the 2023-2024 season an accomplishment they achieved in Saint Petersburg. Dynamo fell short against Krasnodar at their home ground, suffered a loss away to Pari NN, and failed to maintain a winning score in Samara. In their match against Zenit, many Dynamo players gave career-best performances, most notably Konstantin Tyukavin who usually plays second fiddle to Arsen Zakharyin. Tyukavin became the star of the show against Zenit and definitely caught the eye with two goals against the reigning champions of Russia. Krasnodar Krasnodar got off to a strong start for the 2023-2024 season, only trailing behind the Moscow-based club Spartak. Krasnodar managed to bag victory in all three World-RPL matches in the new season and only lost in the RPL Cup trail against Spartak with a 2:1 scoreline. Krasnodar got off to a solid start in the World-RPL, confidently winning an away game against Dynamo Moscow, followed by three points each in games against Sochi and Pari NN. The match with geographic neighbours evolved into a fierce game, in which converting chances was the decisive factor. The last league match saw Krasnodar trying to break through Nizhny Novgorod's "parked bus", masterfully steered by Sergei Yuran.
