Krylya Sovetov vs CSKA Moscow Prediction

CSKA Moscow are slight favorites and have superior players but the hosts are on a good run of form and will fancy their chances of getting the job done in front of their fans.

There is little to choose between the sides in terms of consistency over the season and we are backing them to cancel each other out in a low-scoring draw.

Prediction: Krylya Sovetov 1-1 CSKA Moscow
