The head coach of Dynamo Moscow, Sandro Schwarz, on the air of Match Premier, shared his expectations from the home meeting with Dynamo Makhachkala.
– How did you choose the goalkeeper for today's match?
– Kurban deserved this place because he played very well with Baltika. Lunev is injured, Leshchuk also performed well in the Cup, but we decided to opt for Rasulov.
– Luis Chavez did not make the starting lineup. What is his condition?
– Chavez still needs to get into the rhythm of the game after the World Cup, so he is not at the start yet. He needs to be given time, and his possible exit from the bench is a good option to strengthen the game.
– What did you pay attention to when preparing for the opponent?
– This is a very good team that got off to a great start in the season. Sometimes they change the scheme – they play with two or three central defenders. Egor Smelov is in the squad today, so it's more likely to be 4-2-3-1. We have to be ready to play intense football, show our best qualities and create chances.
– Dynamo has the most possession with the ball, but has not won yet. Are you ready to give up the ball in favor of three points?
– We dominated this indicator in all matches, but we need to create more sharpness in the penalty area, more scoring opportunities, and the most important thing is to win and score points.
