Former Rubin defender Alexey Popov shared his expectations for the match between Kazan and Krasnodar in the Russian Premier League (RPL). His words are quoted odds.
Krasnodar will control the ball and try to ensure that Rubin does not give even a single chance on goal. “Krasnodar” is a completely different team this season, they can keep the score, they have passion, they stabilized the game and this will be enough for the distance – “Krasnodar” has become a strong team. “If Galitsky does not interfere with the team and Ivic’s affairs, they will be able to win their first championship,” Popov said.
Rubin will host Krasnodar in the 10th round of RPL on September 30.
After nine rounds, Krasnodar became the sole leader in the RPL standings. Vladimir Ivich’s team has 21 points. Next comes Samara “Wings of the Soviets” (18 points). Zenit, which is in third place, has one point less.
Krasnodar is the only team that has not suffered a single defeat in the current RPL.
