Krasnodar vs CSKA Moscow Prediction
Krasnodar were narrowly pipped to the league title on the final day last season but finished runners-up for the first time. They would have hoped to build on that this season but have had a slow start, drawing their two league games.
CSKA, for their part, are seeking a 13th Cup title and were losing finalists on penalties to Zenit last season. They comprehensively defeated fellow group opponents Pari over the weekend and will be full of confidence.
Games between the two sides tend to be cagey affairs, so expect the spoils to be shared in a low-scoring stalemate.
Prediction: Krasnodar 1-1 CSKA
