Krasnodar

Last season, Krasnodar ended Zenit's dominance and became the Premier League champions for the first time in their history. Murad Musayev's side finished eight points ahead of CSKA. Notably, the team will compete for the Super Cup for the second consecutive time, having lost to Zenit 4-2 last year. Towards the end of the season, the club won five of their last six matches, with their only defeat coming against CSKA.


Defender Kayo and forward Fyodor Smolov have left the team. Meanwhile, the club has strengthened its squad with the addition of defender Jubal, midfielder Douglas Augusto, and forward Gustavo Furtado.


  • Both teams scored in 5 of Krasnodar's last 7 RPL games.
  • At least three goals were scored in 6 of the team's last 7 league matches.
  • The club has an uncompromising streak of 12 official matches (9 wins, 3 losses).

CSKA

The Moscow club finished third in the last championship, but they won the Russian Cup for the ninth time. CSKA has fewer Super Cup trophies – 7, but they have participated in this tournament more than any other team (13 times). The last time the team fought for the country's Super Cup was in 2023, losing to Zenit on penalties. The club enters this game on a 6-match unbeaten streak in official matches (3 wins and 3 draws in regular time).


During the offseason, head coach Marko Nikolic left the team. Swiss Fabio Celestini, formerly of Basel, has been appointed as the new manager. Additionally, the club acquired midfielder Mateus Alves. Among the losses for CSKA are the departures of midfielders Miralem Pjanic, Kristijan Bistrovic, Rifat Zhemaletdinov, and forward Saul Guarirapa.


  • CSKA kept a clean sheet in 4 of their last 5 RPL and Russian Cup matches in regular time.
  • The team scored at least one goal in 5 of their last 6 official games.
  • CSKA has not conceded more than one goal in 15 of their last 16 encounters with Krasnodar in the Premier League and national cup.

CSKA Starting Lineup (4-4-2)

Krasnodar vs. CSKA: Match Prediction

Recent Russian Super Cup matches have been high-scoring affairs. However, Zenit was a constant participant in the last six editions, often surpassing the bookmakers' totals on their own. The only goalless match during this period was against CSKA. The "Army Men" have long been known for their solid defensive play, and last season only Zenit conceded fewer goals than the Moscow club in the RPL. Additionally, CSKA kept a clean sheet in 4 of their last 5 official matches, including against Krasnodar.


Murad Musayev's side also looks strong defensively. The club kept a clean sheet in half of their matches during the championship season and ranked third in terms of goals conceded. Despite their impressive attacking prowess, Krasnodar failed to break down CSKA's defense in their last two official encounters.


Furthermore, no more than two goals were scored in regular time in 8 of the last 9 head-to-head meetings in the RPL and Russian Cup. This is another factor supporting the prediction: Total under 2.5 goals
