On Sunday, Dynamo lost in St. Petersburg (0:3), creating a lot of scoring chances and striking three times more than Zenit. After the match, Sandro Schwartz noted that the final score was clearly not in the game.

– We got into the game quite well, had the initiative, created chances. Then there was a penalty and a second optional goal, which happened after our player slipped on a wet field. In the second half, we could have returned to the game, had several scoring chances, but in the end we missed the third goal from a free kick. Yes, the result is strange, but we played well for most of the match," said Schwartz.

Recall that in the first round of the group stage, blue and white defeated Fakel on the road (1:0) and topped Group B.

Krasnodar also started the cup campaign with a victory over Akhmat, but it was obtained in a penalty shootout (1:1, 5:4). The only goal in the main time was organized by the newcomers of the Bulls – Daniil Utkin, who returned to his native team in the summer, scored from Dmitry Vorobyov's transfer. In addition to them, Ilya Vakhania, Magomed Ozdoev and Brazilian winger Christian are gradually being integrated into the team structure.

Thus, the Krasnodar team closed all the gaps created after the departure of Eduard Spertsyan, Victor Sa, Giovanni Rodriguez and Moses Kobnan. Although it seemed to many that the departure of Spertsyan and the absence of John Cordoba, who returned from the World Cup with an injury, would seriously affect the team's results at the beginning of the season.

However, Murad Musayev copes with the task of rebuilding the game perfectly – 5 wins in 5 matches speak for themselves. In the absence of Spertsyan, Nikita Krivtsov, who scored 3 + 1 in these meetings, became the main creative link in Krasnodar's attacks. Vorobyov has not scored yet, but he is extremely useful – two assists confirm that.

– The team got off to a good start, but not everything is perfect yet, there is a lot of work ahead. The last match with Akhmat showed that no one should relax, since every victory and every point is given with great effort," said Murad Musayev after the victory in the last round over Grozny, which Christian's accurate shot brought to the bulls.

The teams met six times in the Russian Cup. One victory for our team (4:3), one for the Bulls (4:0) and four more draws (in regular time).

Kazbek Mukailov (2), Daniil Fomin, Bitello, John Cordoba, Nikita Krivtsov and Kevin Lenini scored goals from the current players of the teams in these meetings.

The meeting was entrusted to Nikita Novikov, who will be assisted by line judges Dmitry Ermakov and Andrei Vereteshkin. Ivan Abrosimov and Kirill Levnikov will be responsible for the video Referee Assistance System (VAR).

Last season, the 27-year-old referee from Petrozavodsk served two blue and white matches against Sochi (2:0) and Baltika (2:1).
