On May 11, the second leg of the 1/2 finals of the Cup of Russia will take place, in which Spartak Moscow will play at home with Yenisei Krasnoyarsk. The forecast for this match is given by the former Spartak player Egor Titov.
Few people expected that Yenisei would reach the semifinals of the tournament, but this spring the Red-blues managed to defeat Lokomotiv on the road, after which they beat Rubin at home. It will not be easy for Krasnoyarsk residents to knock out Spartak, given that the red-whites will be extremely motivated. Spartak failed the current championship in the Premier League, and it has been a long time since they reached the final in the Cup, but they won the trophy for the last time back in 2003, when Egor Titov himself was still playing.
The expert notes that under the circumstances, Spartak is obliged to reach the finals, since almost all factors are on the side of Muscovites, and it will be very strange not to take advantage of the chance and lose at home to the representative of the second strongest division of the country, which is not the strongest in the FNL at the end of this season.
Egor Titov is almost sure that Spartak will be able to get a ticket to the Russian Cup final during the main time of the match, and even bets with a minus handicap on his former team, believing that it may well win bigger than one ball.
