Analysis and prediction for the match of the 7th round of the Russian championship “Lokomotiv” – “Krasnodar” (01/09/2024)
Four matches are scheduled for the seventh round of the Russian Premier League on September 1. In one of them, at the RZD Arena in Moscow, the local team Lokomotiv will host Krasnodar. Kick-off is scheduled for 19:45 Moscow time.
The Railwaymen are unstoppable. So far, they have only lost away from home in the second round of the RPL against Dynamo Moscow (1:3). And then Mikhail Galaktionov’s players did not look worse than their opponents. They had chances to equalize the score, but the opposing goalkeeper Andrei Lunev proved to be too reliable.
The Romans seem to be rather winners:
Lazio – Milan. Pioli’s dismissal is felt
After defeating Rostov (3-2), the Red-Greens moved up to first place in the championship standings. The match caused controversy due to several controversial refereeing decisions that influenced the final result, but this does not take away from Mikhail Galaktionov’s merits.
Having received a lot of technical and fast youth to help him, the coach made Lokomotiv play impeccable attacking football. 19-year-old Alexey Batrakov began to shine. In six matches of the Russian Championship, he scored three goals and gave five assists.
The quality and depth of the squad is in perfect order. Galaktionov has plenty of options to improve the team’s play with substitutions. He can release Timur Suleymanov, who scored as many as four goals in the last two rounds of the Russian Cup group stage, or Vadim Rakov, who has improved a lot.
So far, Galaktionov’s solutions have never failed. The mentor competently manages the team, constantly developing its strengths. It would be nice, of course, to work on the quality of defense, but in general the Railwaymen’s playing pattern is excellent. It is very difficult for opponents.
For Krasnodar, the picture of the quality of collective football is less clear. Murad Musaev said that he would focus on playing constantly as number one and would use a more attacking style. So far, nothing of the sort has been seen. The black and green team has again come close to what was seen under Vladimir Ivic.

Bayer-Leipzig. Xabi Alonso’s story continues in the new season
Krasnodar won all five of their last matches, but each time they won by a narrow margin. It is clear that they had many strong opponents, whose defences were not easy to break. However, there are doubts about the structure and coherence of the black-greens.
The game in Krasnodar was marked by chaotic behaviour. The lack of order affected the leaders, John Cordoba and Eduard Spertsyan. Between them, they did not score a single goal in nine matches. The Colombian provided one assist and the Armenian provided two.
If you look at it objectively, Lokomotiv plays more interesting and stable football than Krasnodar. They have better teamwork and mutual understanding, and their coaching thinking is more clearly visible. You can bet on the victory of the railwaymen in the next match with a rate of 2.30.
The Red-Greens have won four of their last six competitive matches in Moscow. The support of their fans will be of great help to them. Galaktionov’s beautiful attacking football must overcome the pragmatic and sometimes incomprehensible game of Musaev’s men.
Prediction and betting tips for the RPL Lokomotiv – Krasnodar match on September 1, 2024
The Krasnodar team has not lost in the RPL yet, but it has never faced such a well-designed opponent. The railway workers got an excellent boost. You will want to watch their fast and well-calibrated attacks forever. The red-greens have excellent chances of beating the Bulls at home.
Tender: Lokomotiv victory in 2.30.
