THE PREDICTION
The Russian Premier League concluded last season in bizarre and fairly surreal circumstances. As Russia waged war on Ukraine, following the February invasion, football in Ukraine stopped but Russia continued. Russian clubs have been banned from UEFA competitions for an indefinite amount of time and that has, as unimportant as it seems in the circumstances, killed the competitiveness and meaningfulness with little to play for between top spot and the relegation zone. So, that will have another bearing on the standard and style of these matches - and that must be noted. A 2-1 defeat away at Sochi means that Akhmat Grozny sit firmly in the middle-of-the-table ahead of this weekend’s round of fixtures with a win, draw and a defeat in their opening three matches. The Chechnyans now face the reigning champions, Zenit Saint-Petersburg. The visitors began with a frustrating 1-1 draw against Khimki but have since enjoyed back-to-back wins and they will be expected to make it three successive victories in this one.
