The former Spartak Moscow player believes the Dinamiki are favourites to win the domestic cup final against Rubin Kazan at Yekaterinburg stadium
Yekaterinburg stadium will come alive on Wednesday, as Dynamo Moscow and Rubin Kazan look to win the Russian Cup final after a season of poor Russian Premier League performances.
Rubin, who have failed to qualify for UEFA Champions League this season, are yet to win a competitive match since their 2-0 win over http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Rostov-c39192 back in April at Tsentralnyi stadion. On the other hand, the Musora have failed to win
from their last three league outings.
Given that, both Russian outfits have lifted the domestic cup just once since the inception of the Russian top division. The two teams will have a close combat according to some senior analysts.
Yuri Kovtun has conceded that Dynamo are favourites to win the upcoming cup tie against Rubin irrespective of their disappointing performances during the third league round.
“Hopefully, after a long break, Dynamo will win the Cup of Russia. Both the teams are on a good level and each of them deserves victory in the tournament. Ruby has been an awkward opponent against Dynamo but I am inclined to think
that this unfortunate series should stop right now, in the final of the Cup of Russia.” The former Luch Azov player was quoted as saying.
Though, Rubin have managed to win against the Moscow-based club on two occasions in the league, Kovtun believes that the White-blues have extra motivation ahead of the cup tournament.
The former Spartak Moscow defender went on to reveal that Sergei Silkin, the Dinamiki head coach, needs to play http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Igor-Semshov-c16748 in the starting-line-up against the Tatary, if they are to win the final.
Asked whether the differences between the coach and the aforementioned players will affect their performances, Kovtun revealed that the Louders need to start with experienced players in the final.
“I think it will be interesting if it happens. Voronin and Semshov needs to forget about individual matter and play for the team in front of their fans.” Kovtun concluded.
