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. An impressive opening day point against reigning champions Zenit Saint-Petersburg has been followed up with two victories and a defeat in their next three matches as they sit in the top-half of the table ahead of this weekend’s round of fixtures. They now face an Akhmat Grozny side that come into this on the back of a similar start as they sit two points and two places behind Khimki. A draw would appear the likeliest outcome for this one between two sides that appear relatively evenly matched.
