Athletistic/ Football. The RPL 3rd round match between Akron and Dynamo Moscow will take place on August 3 at the Solidarity Samara Arena. Starts at 15:00 Moscow time.

In the first round of the RPL, Akron imposed the fight on Lokomotiv (2:3), and then beat Fakel (2:0). But in the last match, they were a little lucky. In the stoppage time of the first half, with the score at 0:0, Voronezh’s leader Evgeniy Markov received a red card.

Without the withdrawal, the meeting could have gone completely differently. Akron is performing well, but has few reserves. This is the team’s first season in the RPL. It will be a great success if they manage to maintain their registration.

Zaur Tedeev’s team is showing fearless attacking play. They are good at creating chances, but Akron is doing poorly defensively. Their defenders often make mistakes due to a simple lack of experience at such a high level.

Before Akron, Dynamo had two difficult matches in a row. In the Russian Championship, they were supposed to get it from Lokomotiv, but they won the first Moscow derby of the season – 3: 1. Pinyaev, Vorobyov and company wasted a lot of chances, punished Ngamale. On Wednesday, there was another match in Moscow – the oldest derby with Spartak in the first round of the group stage of the Russian Cup. Needless to say, how much strength and emotion the Blue and White leave behind in such matches.

And after all this, the Lichka team has to rush to Samara for the match against Akron. With practically no resources for rotation, “Dynamo” has already gone through the match with the same composition and youth. This does not mean that Akron has an easier time, but at least the RPL newcomer does not suffer from a large-scale rest of foreign players. The Togliatti team did not delegate anyone to the America’s Cup, they do not expect anyone from the Olympics, so they play at full strength.

Statistics

– Dynamo Moscow scores an average of 3 goals per match;

– “Akron” scores an average of 2 goals per match;

– Dynamo Moscow lost the only head-to-head match with Akron on penalties.

Dynamo looks much more monolithic than their opponents, and they also have a selection of high-quality attacking players. Lichki’s players will clearly not allow their opponents to be underestimated and will quickly try to find gaps in the defense of the Tolyatti team.

Approximate compositions

Akron (4-3-3): Sergei Volkov – Konstantin Savichev, Joao Escoval, Paulo Vitor, Boyan Dimoski – Maxim Palienko, Stefan Loncar, Alexa Djurashovich – Kirill Danilin, Sergey Gribov, Soltmurad Bakaev.

Dynamo Moscow (4-1-4-1): Andrey Lunev – Stanislav Bessmertny, Milan Maystorovich, Ivan Lepsky, Eliezer Dasa – Alexander Kutitsky – Yaroslav Gladyshev, Luka Gagnidze, Bitello, Mumi Ngamalyo – Konstantin Tyukavin.

Forecast: Victory “Dynamo”
