Under Vladimir Ivic's guidance, Krasnodar refused to play attacking style without regard to results and immediately became one of the championship's main contenders. In the four starting rounds, the Bulls have a 100 percent record, and only one conceded goal.

In the last match, Krasnodar beat Orenburg away, not conceding for the third time this season. Eduard Spertsyan scored a 2:0 double on 67 and 89 minutes.

In the last two games, Lokomotiv Moscow confirmed that Artyom Dzyuba is the team's key player. They somehow outplayed Rubin (1:0) without the injured forward in the Russian Cup. In the last round of the championship, also at home, they were destroyed by Krylia Sovetov. The team was saved by Samara's poor realization of chances, great play in goal by Lantratov, and an accurate shot from a distance by Konstantin Maradishvili at 90+3. The result was a draw of 1:1. It should be noted that Maradishvili's goal kick was Loko's only attempt to score. The statistics of shots in the match with Samara look like this - 3:21 in total and 1:11 in shots on goal.

Lokomotiv will not be able to count on Artyom Dzyuba again, which means that scoring more than one goal will be difficult for the team, especially in the match against Krasnodar, who have conceded only once in four RPL games so far. Accordingly, we bet on the victory of the Bulls, not the highest performance from Lokomotiv, in general. Krasnodar finally gave up romantic football and now looks like the strongest team in the country, deservedly leading in the standings.
