Football expert Valeriy Gladilin gave an exclusive interview about the most interesting matches of the second round of the Russian Professional Football League. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
According to him, the most notable match of the round will be the clash between the teams "Krasnodar" and "Lokomotiv". The expert states that this game will be complicated, as "Lokomotiv" has gained confidence and "Krasnodar" is also in good form.
Therefore, equal forces will compete in the match, and the home team's clear advantage is not apparent. The "Railwaymen" have various tactics and are capable of applying them correctly.
The team is well-structured and ready to achieve high results. "Lokomotiv" relies on its main strength to collect points.
A new player, Nikolay Komlichenko, is expected to be a key player in the team. Additionally, there are supporting players like Sergey Pinyaev.
For this reason, the expert does not see a clear advantage for the team led by "Murad Musayev". When asked about the difficulties "Spartak" might face in the match against "Baltika", the expert believes that "Spartak" will win.
The guests are well-prepared and disciplined, but they have issues with execution skills. The "Red-Whites" have many quality players in their squad, which is their advantage.
In the first round match, "Spartak" left a good impression, even though the opponent had been dominant in previous games. In the match between "Dinamo" and "Rostov", "Dinamo" may lose new points.
It is evident from the first round match that "Dinamo" lacks a clear playing style. "Rostov", on the other hand, has shown itself as a solid team.
They played boldly without retreating into defense against the opponent. Therefore, "Dinamo" head coach Valeriy Karpin needs to approach this match seriously.
CSKA in Moscow is expected to win against "Ahmat", but the guests will not easily give away points. Therefore, the hosts may face difficulties in the match, and a draw is not out of the question.
An unexpected result may occur in the match between "Rubin" and "Zenit". "Rubin" is currently well-prepared, and there are few weak spots in the team.
A draw would not be a tragedy for "Zenit". The hosts will play in front of a large audience, which will boost their motivation.
For this reason, even one point would be considered a good result for the guests. According to the expert, the matches in the Russian championship will be interesting and complicated.
Each team has its own tactics and strengths, and fans are eagerly anticipating the matches.
