CSKA defender Daniil Krugovoy shared his expectations ahead of the 18th round match of the Mir RPL against FC Krasnodar. The game is set to take place on Sunday, December 7, at the Ozon Arena in Krasnodar, with the referee’s first whistle scheduled for 19:00 Moscow time.

— What are your thoughts on this away game against the reigning champions and leaders of the RPL?
— The style of play will be quite different from what we experienced in our match against Orenburg. Both teams—us and Krasnodar—play in an open manner, which should make for an exciting match. In the first half of the season, we managed to draw with them at home (1:1). We hope to seize our opportunities this time and secure a victory on the road, — Krugovoy’s comments were reported by *Izvestia*.
