The Russian Cup is back, and this is a game both teams want to advance from. Rodina Moskva have just lost in the league, but in the cup they still have a chance to reset. Spartak Moskva, meanwhile, are clearly in a spell of better results. Rodina Moskva have had a tough run of league games, and the defence is an obvious problem judging by the number of goals conceded, while the attack does not create much either. Spartak Moskva, for their part, came through their cup tie with a 3-1 win and have been picking up wins in the league too. Their attack looks to have more about it and they dominate possession. This game is likely to take the shape of Spartak Moskva pressing and doing most of the attacking, while Rodina Moskva will probably have to defend deep and wait for counter-attacking moments. If they can hold out in the first half, the game may open up after the break and goals could follow.
