former defender CSKA Victor Keyru in a conversation with , he named the favorite for the next Army meeting with “Zenith” in the VTB United League, and also expressed the opinion that after the failed match with the MBA, the St. Petersburg team will have great motivation.
CSKA, having suffered no defeats this season, top the United League table. Zenit is in third place with 16 wins and five losses.
The match between CSKA and Zenit will take place on January 20 in Moscow, starting at 8:00 p.m. (Moscow time). Watch the live broadcast on the channel, as well as on the sportbox.ru and matchtv.ru websites, starting at 7:55 p.m.
– After the defeat of the MBA, where St. Petersburg were the unconditional favorites, Zenit, of course, has a very big motivation. And both the players and the technical staff. Losing in the last game shouldn’t be an obstacle to showing a good game in the next encounter. But, objectively speaking, CSKA are the favorites of the game. The team is playing at home and the Muscovites seem more confident than their rivals throughout the season. At the same time, Raikovich quarters play confidently in both home and away games. The team is showing a good attack, and I don’t see any preconditions for them to play now one way or another.
We expect good play from both opponents in this game. It is clear that now in the championship there are three teams which are the favorites of the tournament: CSKA, UNICS and Zenit. And it’s hard to compete with them. Of course, any match between CSKA and Zenit is both a derby and an extra motivation for both teams. I believe that CSKA should win this match. At the moment, the picture looks exactly like this, – said Keiru “”.
