Former Spartak footballer Andrei Tikhonov assessed the alignment of forces in the match “Rostov” against the “red-whites” in the 9th round RPL.
Fans are looking forward to this match. I think the Rostov stadium will be full. “Spartak” comes to Rostov, to visit Valery Karpin, and this is a serious sign. The Rostovites show good football, score a lot on set pieces and confidently control the ball.
From Spartak I would like to see a reaction to Zenit’s deserved defeat. Let’s see what Abascal will do, because it is very dangerous to lose points with the red and white. But Rostov are playing at home, their opponents have sixteen points each and there will be a desperate fight here. Any team that wins will continue to fight for the top, so it will be very interesting to see who comes out first.
I think there will be a lot of fighting and aggression, because Valery Karpin will seriously organize his team and Spartak cannot stumble a second time. I think they can both win and it is very difficult to predict who exactly.
