CSKA should pass Krasnodar in the Cup of Russia, given the stability and experience of the squad, Aldonin believes

CSKA should beat Krasnodar in the FONBET Cup of Russia, says former CSKA football player Evgeny Aldonin.

The first match of the ¼ final of the tournament against Krasnodar ended with a score of 3:0 in favor of the army team.

– Yes, CSKA played great in the first official match after the resumption of the season, but I would not say that everything there was without a chance for Krasnodar. In any case, the opponent at home will play aggressively and pose a danger to the army team. If in the first half CSKA does not have any relaxation, then the team will have to bring the match to its logical conclusion – before passing to the next round. But I think that the army team will be set up, plus Krasnodar always attacks well at home, regardless of the squad.

Yes, the situation for CSKA after the first match is more than comfortable. But no European cups are waiting for us, so it is quite a feasible task for the army team to play this match reliably, and it will be difficult for Krasnodar. Judging by the first game, I would not say that CSKA had a total advantage in Moscow, the Bulls also had chances. Yes, the army team could have scored more goals, but they could also have scored fewer. It played that some goals were scored after the standards. But the same thing can happen in Krasnodar, so you can’t relax. Given the stability and experience of the CSKA squad, the army team should go through Krasnodar in the Russian Cup, Aldonin told Metaratings.ru.

The second leg against Krasnodar will take place on Tuesday, February 28.
