An unforgettable day at the Russian Cup! Spartak, Zenit, CSKA and Dynamo are playing! LIVE
August 14, 2024, 01:00 Moscow time
This is the RPL way.
Today, August 14, matches of the second round of the Russian Cup group stage (RPL Path) will be played. CSKA will host Paris NN, Zenit will visit Rubin, Krylya Sovetov and Spartak will play in Samara, and there will also be a derby between Moscow and Dynamo Makhachkala.
The history of the confrontation between the army team and Nizhny Novgorod is rich in goals: in the last five matches between them they scored 19 goals between them. And only once did Pari NN win. Marko Nikolic’s team is the undisputed favorite of the match. By the way, this is also a bit of a derby, because there are Serbian coaches: the guests are coached by Sasha Ilic.
The Russian season calendar is designed in such a way that matches with the same sign often occur first in the RPL and then in the Russian Cup. That’s right: on July 27, Zenit beat Rubin (4-0) in Kazan. Sergei Semak’s team is on such a roll that it scares even rivals from the hegemonic power. But what if Rashid Rakhimov comes up with something interesting? Or will St. Petersburg lose all their magic without the injured Wendel?
The match between Krylia and Spartak in the RPL will be held on August 3, and now the teams will meet in the Kyrgyz Republic. The team from Samara finally won in the new season (“Fakel” – 3-0), and the red-and-whites are, in principle, nice to watch, showing their best team under the leadership of Dejan Stankovic. There are almost always a lot of goals scored in matches between KS and Spartak. We hope that this game will not be an exception.
The last time Dynamo Moscow and Makhachkala met was 20 years ago, also in the Russian Cup. Then, in the round of 16, the capital club turned out to be stronger, Dmitry Polovinchuk scored a double and Vladimir Beshchastnykh scored another goal. But now a new challenge arises, first of all for the Dagestanis. They have not yet been able to win in the RPL, but they have already beaten Krylia Sovetov in the Russian Cup. Why not surprise again?
