Commentator and host of Match TV Georgy Cherdantsev broadcast on the TV channel reported that the Russian Premier League was played on Monday (RPL) will contact the clubs and discuss the possible postponement of the 18th round matches due to bad weather.

Previously President RPL Alexander Alaev admitted that the next round matches could be postponed to the spring part of the season.

In heavy snow conditions on Sunday, a match between CSKA and Rostov (2:0), also due to weather conditions the start of the match between Lokomotiv and Zenit (3:1) was delayed for half an hour.

On Monday RPL We will call the clubs, if they unanimously decide to postpone the next round to the spring, then we will not have football next weekend. There is a second option, in which the tour will be played, because the problems are only in the Moscow matches and the Voronezh match. There may be a compromise option: the matches are played in southern cities and St. Petersburg, and the Moscow ones are moved to the spring and, possibly, to Voronezh. This will be clear until Tuesday evening, as my colleagues explained to me.

The 18th round matches will take place from 8 to 10 December.
