Week 9 brings us a match on Sep 10th, where Krasnodar will travel to Moskva to battle CSKA Moscow in a meeting of these two Premier League teams. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 15 degrees, which will be a great treat for players. In their last match, 2nd placed CSKA Moscow, recorded a 1-0 shutout win against Krylya Sovetov. Igor Diveev scored the first goal for CSKA Moscow in the 79th minute, and with that single goal the scoring was complete. Neither team could manage anything else In the end, Krylya Sovetov was frustrated by CSKA Moscow’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. CSKA Moscow ended the match with the shutout victory. With 19 points in their last 10 matches CSKA Moscow should be reasonably happy with their performance, while in their last match, Krasnodar recorded a 2-1 win against Sochi.
