CSKA
In the last round, the Army celebrated their seventh victory in the current championship, beating Khimki with a score of 2-1. This success was also the third in the four previous rounds, and only in one of them CSKA failed to score three points, losing 0-1 to Torpedo in the round before last. Victory over Khimki also helped CSKA overtake Rostov by one point and climb to second place. As for the leading Zenit, CSKA is six points behind him.
Dynamo
Dynamo successfully started the season by issuing an 8-match winless streak, which included four wins and the same number of draws. And then the negative streak began, which is still relevant today. First, Dynamo lost on the road to Sochi (1-2), then it turned out to be weaker on its own field than Zenit (0-2), and in the last round it suffered a third defeat in a row, losing to Akhmat on its field with a result of 1-2. On the eve of the 12th round, Dynamo has 16 points and occupies the eighth position.
Statistics and figures:
- CSKA won in three of the last four rounds;
- Dynamo lost in the previous three rounds;
- Dynamo won against CSKA in two of the last three games.
Forecast
CSKA has been playing better in the last rounds, but Dynamo must get together and make every effort to interrupt the unpleasant series. I think both teams will be able to prove themselves effectively in attack.
