Dynamo Moscow host FC Krasnodar in a Russian Cup tie with a place in the next round at stake. CheckLive's data does not list a favourite, which suggests the contest is too close to call.
Dynamo have won three of their last five, including a 3-1 league win over Dinamo Makhachkala and a 5-2 friendly victory against CSKA Moscow, though they lost 1-2 at Baltika Kaliningrad. Krasnodar have won four of their last five, with a 6-5 Russian Cup win over Akhmat Grozny and a 3-2 success at Fakel Voronezh among the results.
The head-to-head record is heavily in Krasnodar's favour: five wins in eight meetings, with Dynamo winning two and one draw. The most recent meeting, however, went to Dynamo, who won 2-1 in the Premier League last May. With both sides in decent form and no clear favourite, this cup tie looks finely balanced.
