Command Analysis

PFC Sochi

Current form
Sochi needs to win back six points in the remaining 13 rounds to advance directly to the RPL. The task is difficult, and the southern club has made five transfers for her and bought out striker Pavel Meleshin from Spartak Moscow after renting him. The most expensive newcomer is the Moroccan Nabil Aberdeen, the central defender of the Spanish Getafe. There are no significant losses in the Sochi squad, and head coach Robert Moreno should be pleased. The club entered the spring in fourth place, but after yesterday's victory of Chernomorets, the Bars dropped to fifth place in the standings. During the winter break, the Southerners held six control meetings, in which they suffered only one defeat. The team lost to Rubin Kazan (0:2). The team will make every effort in the fight for a ticket to the elite of Russian football, but so far it is lagging behind the fourth Urals in additional indicators.

Sokol Saratov

Current form
Before the winter break, the club's management decided to replace head coach Alexei Bagu. However, the team has not yet been helped by the change of coach – they have lost the last four matches and the second under the leadership of new head coach Alexei Stukalov. The team is the most ineffective team, which has scored only 11 goals since the start of the championship and won only four victories against seven world champions. At the moment, Sokol is in the relegation zone in 16th place and has 19 points in the asset, lagging behind the saving line, where Ufa is located, by one point. The main task set by the club's management is to maintain registration in the best league in the world, and there are all the prerequisites for this.
