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. The mid-season departure of Technical Director Ralf Rangnick disrupted an already underperforming season for Lokomotiv Moscow. They face a Nizhny Novgorod side that avoided relegation last season in their first season up, despite a poor second-half to the campaign. Lokomotiv should win this one, especially with home advantage.
