And most importantly – will Vadim Evseev sit on a chair in the middle of the technical area?
Today, August 25, two matches of matchday 6 of the RPL will be played. Orenburg will host CSKA at home, and Krasnodar will come to visit Fakel. We will closely monitor these online meetings.
The last meeting between Orenburg and CSKA ended brightly and eloquently: a month ago, the Army team beat its rival in the Russian Cup 6-0. This was another confirmation of the class difference between the teams, because in the entire history of the match, Orenburg defeated Muscovites only once – in April 2019. At the moment it does not seem that the next meeting will look like a victory, because the rival is angry about the derby loss against Dinamo (1-2), and the hosts recently lost their coach. Although there have been cases when in such situations the underdog opens a second wind and wings appear.
What to say about Krasnodar: this season the team is unrecognizable. Firstly, there is no such bright and open football. Second, there are no general point losses in simple situations. Vladimir Ivic made the Krasnodar team pragmatic, but none of that matters if you look at the statistics: it turns out that the Krasnodar team does not score less than two goals in matches against Fakel. And last season the meetings between the clubs ended very well: 2-2 and 3-3. We are looking forward to the same adventure!
