Former Moscow Lokomotiv striker Dmitriy Sychyov shared his thoughts on the upcoming match between the capital's Spartak and Saint Petersburg's Zenit in the fifth round of the Russian Premier League. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
According to him, this game will be the last chance for head coach Stankovich. Any result other than a victory against Zenit will mean Stankovich's dismissal, Sychyov said in an interview with Odds.ru.
The central match will take place on Saturday, August 16. The main referee's initial whistle can be heard at 17:30 Moscow time.
Currently, Spartak is in 11th place in the Premier League standings, while Zenit occupies the eighth position. This encounter will be crucial in determining the teams' fate for the season.
Both teams will be fighting for victory.
