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. In his first game as CSKA Moscow, replacing Aleksei Berezutski, Vladimir Fedotov began his tenure with a comfortable 2-0 win against a poor Ural Yekaterinburg at the VEB Arena last weekend. They now face a Sochi side that were impressive last season. The visitors began this season with another impressive performance as they hammered newly-promoted Torpedo Moscow by three goals to one last weekend. Both teams scoring would appear likely for two sides likely to be strong this season.
