Dynamo on Tuesday in the away cup match played a goalless draw with Krasnodar, losing in a penalty shootout. Kurban Rasulov played for zero for the third time in a row, deflecting five shots at his own goal.

Almost two months later, Yaroslav Gladyshev returned to the field, having played 20 minutes at the end of the meeting. Konstantin Tyukavin was back in the starting lineup and spent 62 minutes on the field.

In the summer, the railway workers were able to successfully replace the departed Ilya Samoshnikov, Nair Tiknizyan, Timur Suleymanov and Vadim Rakov, who went on loan to Krylia Sovetov. Christian Ramirez, Danil Prutsev, Alexander Rudenko, Zelimkhan Bakaev and Nikolay Komlichenko, who replaced them, added speed and persistence on the field.

As a result, at the start of the season, Lokomotiv won 4 victories and broke into the lead, in particular beating Krasnodar and Spartak. However, then the red-greens almost took a swing at the Dynamo record of 1998 (7 draws in a row) and scored five points in five rounds, missing the victory three times already in added time.

The sixth draw in a row with the unyielding Rubin was also close, but Dmitry Barinov's long-range strike and the unsuccessful game of the Kazan goalkeeper still brought three points to Mikhail Galaktionov's wards. Alexey Batrakov, who has already knocked out 8 + 2, is still bright, and Dmitry Vorobyov, who distinguished himself five times, is useful.

During the week, the railwaymen held a cup derby with CSKA and showed a similar result to Dynamo – 0:0 and 2:4 in a penalty shootout. The railwaymen are preparing for the Saturday derby in the strongest squad – Sergey Pinyaev, who missed two months due to injury, should return to the lineup.

— Sergey started training in the general group, and there is a high probability that he will be in the application. Let's see how he spends the next few days. We hope that he has solved all his health problems, and we are counting on him. He is not ready for 90 minutes yet, this is an objective situation,— Mikhail Galaktionov said.

Forward Nikolay Komlichenko played for Dynamo for a season and a half, after which he moved to Rostov, where he worked with Valery Karpin.

Anton Miranchuk will play for the first time against his hometown club, in which he became the champion of Russia and three times the winner of the Cup of the country.

Defender of railwaymen Maxim Nenakhov is a graduate of the Dynamo Academy.

Valery Karpin and Mikhail Galaktionov have met 9 times as head coaches, and so far the Lokomotiv mentor has the advantage (5 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses).

In the face-to-face confrontation in the national championships, the advantage is on the side of our team: 58 wins, 30 draws and 42 defeats. The goal difference is 235:181.

The top scorers in these matches are: Dmitry Loskov (11 goals), Kevin Kuranyi (7), Konstantin Beskov, Yuri Vshivtsev and Viktor Voroshilov (all 6).

Kirill Levnikov will serve the match, assisted by assistant referees Dmitry Ermakov and Andrey Vereteshkin. Sergey Ivanov and Vera Opeikina will be responsible for the Video Referee Assistance System (VAR).

This season, the 41-year-old referee from St. Petersburg worked on the derby with CSKA, in which the blue and white lost with a score of 1:3.
