Football expert Andrey Gordeyev shared his thoughts in an interview with the online publication "Evro-Futbol.Ru" about the expected outcomes of the most interesting matches in the third round of the RPL. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
He emphasized that the central match of the round will take place between "Zenit" and "CSKA". According to Gordeyev, the "CSKA" team has started to change its game by operating with two central defenders, which is having a positive impact on the team.
Under the new coach, "CSKA" has started the season well, which means an interesting game for the fans. Nevertheless, "Zenit" is always considered a strong team.
In the expert's opinion, "CSKA" has the opportunity to earn points in St. Petersburg, but it will not be easy. He also noted the importance of the players' impact on the game.
The return of Wendel to "Zenit" will strengthen the team. New players Jerson and Vega are also adapting to the team, and the coach is expected to gradually involve them in the main lineup.
Opinions were also expressed about the match between "Krasnodar" and "Dinamo". According to Gordeyev, "Krasnodar" is trying to recover after the championship.
For them, showing results at the beginning of the season is not always easy, but the expert believes the team will overcome these difficulties. According to statistical data, "Krasnodar" has lost three out of the last four matches.
Gordeyev considers this situation a natural process. "Dinamo" is renewing its game and can improve its results in every match.
The outcome of the match is important for both teams. Especially for "Krasnodar", another defeat would be unpleasant, but the expert believes the team will find a way out of this situation.
In the game between "Akron" and "Spartak", "Akron" may take advantage of its opportunity. There was also discussion about Anton Zabolotnıy and Markinos being unable to participate in the matches.
According to Gordeyev, the absence of Markinos may be felt a bit, but it is not right to rely on one player. The team must always operate with a full lineup and fight for results.
