Spartak vs Dinamo Prediction: the Clubs in Crisis

Prediction for the Russian League Spartak vs Dinamo match, which will take place on April 8th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Spartak dropped out of the race for the league title. If they went into the winter break with minimal chances of final success, now they have even less, about none. In the first round after the vacation, the Reds and Whites lost points in a battle with Ural, 2:2, then barely defeated Fakel, 3:2. In the away match with Orenburg, they failed, 0:2, and last weekend they drew with Akhmat, 0:0. Such results dropped them to third place in the standings. In addition, this week, Guillermo Abascal's charges lost to Ural, 1:2, leaving the Russian Cup.

Dinamo is another team in crisis, seeking to rectify the situation, but each new game only worsens it. They had a decent first half of the season, considering the change of their coach and the loss of several players. After the winter, however, things slowed down. First, they dropped out of the Russian Cup, losing to Krylya Sovetov - 1:2 and 1:1. In the week, they also failed to cope with Akron and finally left the tournament. In the championship, Dinamo had two wins and two losses in four spring rounds, falling to fifth place.

Spartak and Dinamo seemed solid during the first part of the season but experiencing experienced troubles in the spring. It's a little easier for the Reds and Whites as they have a more balanced lineup. Last week several leaders did not participate in the semifinal match of the Russian Cup with Ural. The visitors had almost all their strong and healthy players fielded against Akron, so they might not have enough energy in the derby. Moreover, Dinamo has won only one of the last nine matches in the Premier League.

One would expect the opponents to score a lot, but they are not TO ones in the spring. In the last four meetings with the Reds and Whites, only seven goals were scored (1.75 on average), while Dinamo had five goals (1.25 on average). Moreover, the opponents' first match ended with one goal.
