The head coach of the Krasnodar team, Murad Musayev, gave an interview to Match TV ahead of the game against CSKA. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
He spoke about the addition of a new player, Douglas Augusto, to the team today. Douglas plays in the center of the field.
Gaetan Perren is also expected to join the team, but there is currently no official information about this. Musayev emphasized that Krasnodar will change this season, but the players who finished last season will take the field in today's game.
The head coach mentioned that there are new players on the roster and that some of them can be seen today. Speaking about the preparation for the first opponent of the new season, Musayev shared his thoughts on CSKA's new coach and their tactics.
Their game is based on high pressure and quick attacks, they strongly control the central midfield, and the wing defenders are also very active. Musayev also noted some changes in CSKA's playing style.
For example, Krugovoy plays as an attacking midfielder, almost as a wing forward. This can be complicated due to the opponent's coach's tactics, but every game against each team will have its own unique challenges.
An important aspect is that players need to perform their tasks accurately and disciplined. Musayev also pointed out that it has been a long time since the team played in a classic 4-3-3 formation.
Overall, the game is expected to be interesting and competitive.
