Spartak Moscow vs Lokomotiv Moscow Prediction & Betting tips
At the start of the season, the football supercup is traditionally held in Russia. This year, on Friday (14.07.) At 19:30 am, Champions Spartak Moscow and Pokalsieger Lokomotive Moscow will meet. For Spartak Moscow it is already the fourth start in the Supercup, but the title has not yet jumped out. Locomotive was more successful and took four cups twice. This year, however, we see Spartak in the favorite role and recommend a tip on “the people’s race”.
Spartak Moscow :
Spartak Moscow is undoubtedly one of the most successful and popular teams in Russia with twenty-two championships, but remained without a national or international title between 2004 and 2015. The final stretch ended only last year under the direction of the new Cheminier Massimo Carrera with a 22-3-5 record and a goal ratio of 46:27. The championship was already three days before the end of the season in dry cloths and the advantage of the second placed team was ultimately comfortable seven points.
During the current season preparation, the Carrera elite completed three games. The second test in Serbia took place in the first test match against the Russian second division Chertanovo (2-1). Against the first-class club FK Vozdovac, the Russians quickly took the lead with two goals. After the interval between the first half and the second half, they were able to reach the 3: 2 goal just before the final whistle. The last test against the Croatian first division Belupo took place a week ago and ended with a 1: 1 draw. The goal for Luiz Adriano was one of the eleven legionaries in the Spartak Moscow team.
Lokomotiv Moscow :
Lokomotive Moscow does not come close to the title collection of Spartak. Nevertheless, Loko can compete with two championships – which were at the beginning of the current millennium – and nine trophies. The team’s coach Juri Semin won the last cup of the season with a 2-0 win against Ural Ekaterinburg. The achievements in the Premier League were, however, at most average, which in the end was only for the eighth place. In the end, a 10-12-8 score and a goal ratio of 39:27 was booked. The deficit on the opponent’s opponents finally amounted to a clear twenty-seven points.
Just like Spartak, Lokomotive tested in the course of the season preparation in three games. In the first test, FK Rudar, a top-class club from Slovenia, had the chance to win a tired 1: 1 draw. In the second test, the semifinals managed to score a 10-0 win over their own audience, but the team was a team from the second Slovenian league. A serious test can not be talked about, but Ankaran Hrvatini was just right. The most important thing to be aware of the last friendly match of one and a half weeks ago is that the opponent was the reigning Croatian champion HNK Rijeka. In the end, the hard test lost 0: 1.
