On September 19, the match of the eighth round of the Russian Premier League will take place, in which CSKA and Spartak will play in the Moscow derby. The forecast for this match is given by the famous former football player Alexander Mostovoy.
"Army men" and Spartak players approach the face-to-face meeting with identical indicators, having scored 10 points in seven rounds. This, alas, only allows us to share the eighth and ninth lines in the standings. In the last round, CSKA was content with a draw in Tula with Arsenal (2: 2), and Spartak beat Khimki (3:1) in their home walls.
Spartak also played in the Europa League on Wednesday, where they lost a home match to Legia Poland (0: 1). Of course, this will have a very negative impact on the morale of the "red-white", and in terms of physical freshness, the advantage will be on the side of CSKA.
But still, Spartak looks a little more solid than its competitor in terms of composition, and in the derby, all problems often fade into the background, and the team gets a second wind, provided the right attitude. Alexander Mostovoy bets that the match will end either in a draw or a minimal victory for the guests.
