CSKA Moscow returns to action in the Russian Premier League this weekend as it welcomes FC Khimki in an attack at VEB Arena on Sunday. CSKA Moscow has been right this season and has a point to play before this match.
FC Khimki has been 12th in the Russian Premier League standings lately and they are waging an impressive war to stay out of the relegation zone. The viors recovered from a slow start to the season and surprised Krasnodar with a 1-0 win last weekend.
CSKA Moscow, meanwhile, conceded first place in the Russian Premier League to name rival Zenit St. Petersburg after a disappointing 1-0 loss to Rubin Kazan in the final match. The Moscow team also suffered a defeat in the Europa League this week and will have to bounce back in this match.

CSKA Moscow holds a record right against FC Khimki and has won 10 games out of a total of thirteen matches played between the two teams. FC Khimki has only controlled one victory over the Russian giants and will have to pull a rabbit out of his hat this weekend.
The opposite adjustment between those two groups in August of this year ended with a strong 2-0 win for CSKA Moscow. FC Khimki is not at his most productive time that day and will have to play more on Sunday.

CSKA Moscow has a team at your disposal and will have to recover after a disappointing week. Fyodor Chalov and Arnor Sigurdsson have taken over the Moscow team this season and will have to be more productive this weekend.
FC Khimki has won 4 of their last five matches in the Russian Premier League and will look to win some other wonder on Sunday. However, CSKA Moscow is the most productive team on paper and will be able to win this match.
Prediction: CSKA Moscow 2-1 FC Khimki
