CSKA failed to get anything better than a draw in their visit to Tula last weekend. Aleksey Berezutski’s men have only won three matches so far this season and have lost all the Moscow derbies so far. After last round’s win over FC Khimki, Spartak failed once again to deliver and started their Europa League campaign with a painful defeat to Legia Warszawa. Spartak’s last away win over CSKA was back in 2017. Despite recent negatives, CSKA are slight favourites to win on Monday’s derby. 2:1
Russia international Anton Zabolotny sustained an injury in last round’s match in Tula and is a doubt here. Mário Fernandes, who recently retired from international football, remains sidelined due to a knee injury and is also a doubt for the upcoming derby. Midfielder Maksim Mukhin is suspended after receiving his fourth yellow card of the season last time out. Defenders Bruno Fuchs, Georgy Shchennikov and Hördur Magnusson will not feature here due to long-term injuries. Spartak Moscow lost 1-0 at home to Legia Warszawa in their Europa League match in midweek. Russia international Roman Zobnin picked up a calf injury in that match and will be out for about four weeks. Forward Aleksandr Sobolev is suspended after reaching the yellow card limit last weekend against FC Khimki. Pavel Maslov and Georgi Melkadze will not feature here due to long-term injuries.
