This Russian Cup match comes at a time when both teams have just come through league games with very different outcomes, and the cup is the stage that gives both something to play for again. Krylya Sovetov just closed out with a 2-0 win in the league, but before that they had both draws and defeats in the cup. Dynamo Makhachkala, meanwhile, are in a stretch where results have not gone their way at all — they have not won any of their last five and lost the most recent one. Defence is the heaviest concern when you look at the number of goals they have conceded in their own league. This game will likely open with Krylya Sovetov having more of the ball and gradually applying pressure from midfield, while Dynamo Makhachkala will probably sit deep and wait to counter. The first thing to watch after kick-off is how quickly Krylya Sovetov can get their attacking game going, because if they have to wait too long, the game could become a tight, cagey affair decided by small details.
