Krylya Sovetov vs. Dynamo Moscow: Match Prediction
The opponents met in the group stage of the previous tournament, and both encounters were high-scoring – 5:1, 6:3. Recent matches of the teams have also been rich in goals. Samara scored in 7 of 8 matches this season, but Magomed Adiev's side managed to keep a clean sheet only against Pari NN, which is not known for high scoring. In the Russian Cup, at least three goals have been scored in 6 of Krylya Sovetov's last 7 matches.
In the last RPL round, Dynamo thrashed Nizhny Novgorod. This will surely boost the team's confidence. Good results have been long-awaited from Dynamo. However, before the match against Pari NN, Valery Karpin's side conceded in 5 consecutive official matches. Moreover, playing with a non-main lineup in both Cup matches, Dynamo conceded 6 goals. Yet, Dynamo regularly scores in the national Cup: the team scored in 10 of their last 12 matches.
My prediction: Total over 2.5 goals
* The starting lineup for each team is based on their last match in this tournament.
