Before the match
In the first game, which took place in Moscow last Thursday, February 23, CSKA unexpectedly confidently dominated and completely surpassed Krasnodar. From the actions of the guests, there were practically no positive impressions left – except for hopes for the future and that the players and the new head coach, Serb Vladimir Ivic, still need to get used to each other. The army team also had a great match, scored three unanswered goals, while not realizing a penalty and missing a few more great moments (in most of them, Safonov must be given credit).
It is clear that the issue with the winner of the confrontation is almost resolved – it is not for nothing that the Moscow team cannot even be put on the way to the next stage, this result looks so obvious. It is really impossible to believe in the comeback of such Krasnodar, especially since the army team, judging by Fedotov’s words, in the south of Russia will be motivated and determined to consolidate their success with another victory, and not just play calmly and keep the advantage. Of course, a certain rotation is possible, and you need to get to Krasnodar by land (although you can fly to Sochi and get there by train), which also plays a role – but CSKA’s advantage in the first match was so great that it’s very difficult to wait for a sharp turn in the situation .
Note that the last matches between these teams in Krasnodar often ended in a draw. In the spring of 2022, the hosts won 1-0, but before that there were three peaceful outcomes in five seasons, and in two more matches they exchanged victories. We also note that before CSKA and Krasnodar have never played in Krasnodar in the framework of the Russian Cup. They had two cup meetings, both at the semi-final stage, but in Moscow. The traditional regulations of the Cup do not provide return matches, and CSKA won those semi-finals at its stadium.
Forecast for the match “Krasnodar” – CSKA
It is unlikely that the advantage of the army team here will be as overwhelming as in the first game. Among the reasons for this are not only the already mentioned rotation and not the easiest way, but also motivation. Having won the first match with a landslide, it is difficult to force yourself to strive for the same result in the second leg. However, with a minimum score, CSKA may well win. And, most likely, the match will also be productive – the total of 2.5 looks quite real.
