“Spartacus” is able to fight with the “Zenith” of St. Petersburg for the first place in the Russian championship, however, the “red-whites” can “collapse” during the season in the event of scandals in the club , the coach told Valery Nepomniashchi.
According to the results of the 2022/23 season, Zenit became champions of Russia for the fifth time in a row, Spartak won bronze.
– I am convinced that competition can be imposed on Zenit, despite the fact that the people of Petersburg are very well equipped by our standards. Fighting is possible. And there are teams that can compete. It’s both CSKA and Krasnodar, oddly enough. I think the bulls have found their game. And Lokomotiv can fight.
Spartak is an atmospheric team. We don’t really know what to expect from her. If there is a normal atmosphere and climate inside the team and around it, then it can compete. In terms of composition, they are absolutely competitive, there are no questions. But if a few scandals break out in the club, as is usually the case, the “red-whites” can collapse.
– Of the nominated teams, do CSKA have the best chance of competing for gold?
– I do not undertake to predict, because I am used to making mistakes. If the army team makes one or two more amplifications, then anything is possible. In matches with Zenit, Vladimir Fedotov’s team managed to prove themselves, Nepomniachtchi told .
