THE PREDICTION
The Ukrainian Premier League has confirmed the league will not be able to finish this season after the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The atrocities being committed leave the continuation of the Russian Premier League in a surreal state and circumstances with managers, players and clubs in a general state of flux. Bear in mind that this league could be suspended at any stage given the ongoing situation. Sochi have enjoyed a very impressive campaign so far this season. The southerners’ 6-0 hammering of Leonid Slutsky’s Rubin Kazan a couple of weeks ago was an example of their impressive form. However, due the aforementioned ongoing war, Sochi will now not have Europe to qualify after UEFA’s ban. They now come up against a Nizhny Novgorod that still do have something to play for. The visitors are in genuine danger of relegation. Sochi, especially with home advantage, will come into this as the comfortable favourites.
