Oleg Ryabchuk is injured.

1.45Tip and bets
Spartak has gained excellent form and will certainly strive to take the maximum today - a victory will bring them very close to the playoffs. Dynamo is currently preoccupied with the fight for survival in the championship and the Cup is not of primary importance now, the composition will not be the most important. Spartak will also obviously have a large-scale rotation, but even in this situation the hosts should not leave their opponents any chances.
We think that the guests have no chance. Betting Tip - Asian handicap (-1.5) for Spartak . Such a bet is offered for 2.05
Bet on total
Spartak plays attacking football in home matches and scores a lot – in four home matches of the current season, the Red-Whites have scored nine goals. Today, without a doubt, the hosts will also be as aggressive as possible in attack and Dynamo, which will clearly have a lot of reserves, will not avoid problems – it makes sense to count on a large number of goals.
Bet - total over 2.5 goals. This bet is offered for 1.95
Bet on corners
Spartak are the favourites and will probably dominate for the entire 90 minutes – the home team should win confidently on corners.
Bet - Asian handicap (-2) on corners for Spartak. This bet is offered for 1.75
