The head coach of CSKA, **[Fabio Celestini](https://www.example.com)**, highlighted the strengths of “Baltika” ahead of their face-off in the 10th round of the Russian Premier League. The Swiss expert also shared how his team should approach the game.

“It’s not easy to break down ‘Baltika’. They play very well, with compactness, intensity, and organization, and they defend exceptionally well. They allow very few opportunities to play in between the lines and execute a very effective man-to-man pressing, making them a tough opponent. Of course, we need to improve our ball possession significantly so that the ball moves faster from flank to flank, doing it much better than in the last two matches against them,” Celestini said during a broadcast on Match TV.

After nine matches in the Russian championship, the red-blues have earned 18 points and currently sit in fourth place. The Kaliningrad team has accumulated 17 points and stands in fifth.

In the latest round, the Moscow team triumphed over “Sochi” with a score of 3-1, while “Baltika” played to a goalless draw with “Rostov”.
