Former CSKA footballer Valéry Masalitine believes that the players of the Moscow team may encounter difficulties in the match of the 22nd round of the MIR RPL against Sochi.
The teams will meet on Saturday in Sochi and will watch the match live from 4:20 p.m. (Moscow time) on the MATCH PREMIER TV channel, as well as on the websites matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru.
– Departure to CSKA This is going to be very difficult. “Sochi” changed during the break. They invited different staff, different players and strengthened themselves. I will say this, Sochi is no longer a hopeless team that is at the bottom of the table. The army team always played very well against Sochi. Especially during a visit. And in general, lately CSKA has been playing very carefully. Sochi now has nowhere to retreat. With each defeat, the First League moves closer and closer to them. So I think they will gather here. This break will certainly be beneficial to them. During this time, the coach took a closer look at the team and found out what and how.
Can we say that CSKA will definitely enter the fight for medals if they win? It all depends on Dynamo, Krasnodar and Zenit. CSKA is catching up, if these teams lose points, then naturally CSKA must win to catch up and take first place. CSKA therefore does not depend on itself, but on its competitors. It’s the worst thing. But if they win, there will be chances, so we will talk about it. And so, if they lose in Sochi, they will drop to sixth or eighth place,” Masalitin said, as quoted by Euro-Futbol.Ru.
CSKA is fourth in the Russian Championship standings with 32 points. Sochi (13) is last, 16th.
