“The championship intrigue in the RPL has not gone away. “Krasnodar” was afraid of itself” – Alexander Grishin
Former CSKA football player Alexander Grishin believes that the championship intrigue in the RPL has not died, despite the fact that Krasnodar lost the lead in the standings to Zenit St. Petersburg.
In the 16th round, the St. Petersburg team beat Sochi and topped the championship table, one point ahead of Krasnodar, which lost to Ekaterinburg Ural.
— The championship intrigue has not gone away yet. At the beginning of the season, everyone said that Zenit was the first contender for the championship. “Krasnodar” scared itself. Dynamo is performing well, but the four teams behind are also playing well. If the top six score the maximum number of points in the next matches, then we will have an interesting second part of the championship. “Zenit is creating a good handicap for itself, but the St. Petersburgers have a game with Lokomotiv ahead,” Grishin told RB Sport.
The match between Lokomotiv and Zenit will take place on Sunday in Moscow. Watch the live broadcast of the game on the Match TV channel, as well as on the websites matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru.
