Dynamo Moscow head coach Valery Karpin in a flash interview with Match Premier TV channel shared his expectations from the Russian Championship match with Rostov.
— How special will this game be for you? What can it be compared to?
— It is clear that this game will be special for me. I spent seven years at Rostov, assembling this coaching staff. I don't even know what this game can be compared to.
— Today you have one change in the starting lineup. The position of the left defender now raises the most questions?
— Not only the left-back, other positions also raise questions. If all the players were available to us, then maybe there would be more changes.
— Rostov played a meaningful match in St. Petersburg. Can today's match be similar in structure to the game against Baltika?
— If we talk about pressure, I think so. The structure of the pressure will probably be different. They will play with three central defenders and two forwards. We've been preparing for this, we'll see what happens.
— Today there is no Ronaldo and Sako in the Rostov squad. How much does this make your task easier?
— Sako was not in St. Petersburg either, Suleymanov appears instead of Ronaldo, so globally there are unlikely to be big changes in the quality of players. But the pressure and attack will be built differently, yes.
