Former Russia national team forward Dmitry Bulykin predicted that Spartak will not lose to Krasnodar in the Russian Premier League third round, speaking to Sport24.
Bulykin stated that the red-and-whites will avoid defeat and noted that they could win by a one-goal margin. Bets on either of these outcomes carry odds of 1.85.
The former Russian striker also highlighted the addition of Albanian forward Mirlind Daku to the squad. Bulykin said Daku's transfer looks very good so far, adding that Spartak needed a scoring forward and that if Daku scores and plays good football it will be a bid for the championship.
