Spartak in the middle of autumn was experiencing huge problems, because of which the head coach was fired. Now the team is headed by Oleg Kononov, who is doing quite well. So, last weekend, the Red-and-Whites confidently beat the Krylia Soviets - 3: 1. However, on Thursday, the team had some difficulties with Rapid in the framework of the LE. But in general, within the framework of the RPL, Muscovites occupy the 7th line, since they have 22 points in active.
In turn, Lokomotiv managed to get 25 points for 15 rounds, so it is the 4th team of the Premier League. In total, during the championship, Semin’s wards managed to win 7 times, tied 4 times and lost 4 times, while the total score was 20:14.

Bookmakers are a little inclined to the victory of Spartacus, but it’s definitely not worth betting on the outcome in such a meeting.

The central match of the 16th round of the RPL will be a fight between Spartak and Lokomotiv. Very interesting match in which the "people's team" is a small favorite. It should be recalled that both teams played mid-weekend in European competition, Spartak in LE, and Loko in the Champions League, only rivals held their matches a little differently, respectively, approach the upcoming game in a diametrically opposite mood.
Defeat again
We did not have time to rejoice at the strong-willed victory over the Wings of the Soviets 3: 1, as Spartak lost again, this time in the Europa League to Rapid in Vienna 1: 2. There was an incident in the match, a Spartak fan ran out on the field, who wanted to do something wrong with Glushakov. The captain of the "red-and-whites" remained alive and well, but this situation morally influenced the team not to the best. And now the big question is whether Kononov’s coaching staff will be able to bring his children to their senses after an important meeting.

On the positive
But on the "Lokomotiv” field no one in the match against Galatasaray ran out, the "railroad workers” achieved the first victory in the European Cup, beating the Turks 2: 0. Victoria is more than deserved, Loko looked great, she was in a good mood for the derby, with the task to bring glasses from Otkrytie Arena. Before the reporting round "red-green” on the 4th line in the table, only one point behind the gap between CSKA and the position in the TOP-3.

At the Otkritie Arena stadium on December 2, 2018 at 19:00 in the 16th round of the Russian Premier League, Spartak Moscow will meet with Lokomotiv Moscow.
The beginning of the season RPL 18/19 Spartak Moscow vividly failed, and it seemed there was already no hope for better results. Therefore, Massimo Carrera was dismissed from his post and, instead of him, Oleg Kononov was invited from the Tula Arsenal, who had high hopes and a difficult condition of the team. At the moment, the club is located in seventh place, having 22 points and the difference of goals is 17:16. Over 15 rounds, the Red and White won 6 times, and 5 lost. Already with the new coach, the players in the last round got Victoria against the Wings of the Soviets. Yielding 0-1, the Gladiators won, 3-1, thanks to goals from Hanni, Melgarejo and Adriano. On Thursday, Spartak failed another European Cup match, losing to Rapid at home 1: 2.
Free soccer picks
Lokomotiv Moscow is in the fourth position with 25 points scored and a goal difference of 20:14. Under the leadership of Yuri Semin, the team won for 15 past confrontations 7 times, losing 4. Most of the defeats were received by the club on the road. At the moment, "Railway" began to show weak results, not winning in the last two meetings. The last round they played against the Urals and lost, with a score of 1-2, despite the fact that after the goal was scored by Smolov, the players played. In the Europa League, Lokomotiv won the first victory of the week, over Galatasaray 2: 0.
The past two confrontations between Lokomotiv Moscow and Spartak ended in a draw, with the same score 0-0. I think this time the teams will not be effective, both coaches have something to prove to the experts and the leadership of their clubs. Bet: Total less than 2.

On Sunday, the match of the sixteenth round of RPL between the last two champions of Russia, which will be very difficult to confirm its high status, will take place.
After the first round Spartak scored 22 points and was placed on the seventh line of the tournament table with a goal difference of 17:16. In the previous round, the Red and White celebrated a 3: 1 victory over the Wings of the Soviets, but before that there were four consecutive unsuccessful matches, where they lost 0: 2 from Ufa, 1: 2 from the Urals and 2: 3 from Tula Arsenal, and world 1: 1 with Ruby.
Free soccer picks
Locomotive is fourth with 25 points in the asset and statistics of goals 20:14. In the last two matches, the Railwaymen could not win - as a result, a 0-0 draw with Rubin and an unexpected home defeat 1: 2 from the Urals. But before that, the wards of Semin won five consecutive wins in the RPL and significantly improved their position after the not very successful start.
The bookmakers are called the nominal owners, who are finally on the road to victories, as small favorites of this confrontation. However, Lokomotiv had a day more rest after European cups, so in the Moscow derby they will be fresher and unlikely to lose.

Lokomotiv will not lose (X2) at 1.53
Former Spartak midfielder and Ukraine national team, and now VseProSport.ru website expert Maxim Kalinichenko shares his prediction for the match of the Russian Premier League Spartak - Lokomotiv.
Lokomotiv arrives at the Moscow derby to visit Spartak. The sign is very loud, because there are two last champions of the country.

"Red-whites” have long been unable to rely on Zhigot and Zobnin with Yeremenko. It seems that Oleg Kononov began his Moscow journey with a victory over Wings of the Soviets (3: 1), only he made tactical mistakes with Rapid (1: 2), failing the Europa League. Everything was going well for the Spartacus, but two strikes in the end brought success to the Austrians, and threw the Russians to the end of the quartet. In the domestic championship club in seventh place.
The "railroad workers” are in fourth place in the RPL standings, lagging behind a direct hit by four points in the Champions League. In this tournament, they defeated Galatasaray with the score 2: 0, but still the European Cup spring is far. With the "Ural" (1: 2) "locomotive" created a lot of moments, the truth lost. In the last two matches with today's rival, the squad Yuri Semin did not score.

It is always hot in the Moscow derby, as both teams try to climb higher. Guests accelerate over time, and the owners have too many scandals. I do not know the composition of Oleg Kononov, but if there will be no rearrangements, then the red-and-whites have practically no chances.
I would prefer the victory of "Lokomotiv” with the Asian handicap (0) for 2.13 in the BC Marathon.

Lokomotiv in the week won the first victory in the Champions League and is coming to the derby with Spartak in a great mood. Will the "railroad” to deal with not the most stable defense of the opponent? The answer is in our forecast.
SPARTACUS
"Spartak” this season does not show decent football, for the first round the team has repeatedly got into scandalous situations and has already experienced the coach’s resignation. Oleg Kononov, who had come to the club not so long ago, was able to win a victory in the Premier League over the Wings of the Soviets in the last round, due to which the Red-and-Whites retained on the seventh line.
From the zone of the Champions League it is now separated by four points, but judging by the game, even such a handicap will be extremely difficult to overcome.

On Thursday, "Spartak” met with the Vienna "Rapid” in the Europa League and was considered the clear favorite of the match. Kononov's team managed to get ahead in the 20th minute of the match, but in the second half of the meeting the team stopped and stopped playing football, which took advantage of Rapid, who beat Artyom Rebrov twice.
Now Spartak is the last in the group and his fate will be decided in the game with Villarreal in the final round.
LOCOMOTIVE M
Lokomotiv played poorly at the start of the season, but managed to work on the bugs and add to the game. At the moment, the "railroad workers” are on the fourth line in the table, behind the third CSKA one point, and the leader, "Zenith” nine points. In the last round, the team of Yuri Semin unexpectedly lost at home to Ural 1: 2, but their weak game was due to the preparation for the most important match in the Champions League.

On Wednesday, the "railroad workers” won a victory in the most prestigious tournament in Europe for the first time in 14 years. In Moscow, Lokomotiv managed to beat Galatasaray with a score of 2: 0, which allows them to rely on third place. Own goal of Ryan Donka and goal of Vladislav Ignatiev brightened the whole team's failed campaign in the current Champions League and probably gave the team strength on the eve of the derby with Spartak.
STATISTICS AND PERSONAL MEETINGS
Only in one of the previous seven matches between clubs more than two goals were scored.
The last two meetings between Spartak and Lokomotiv ended in zero draws.
Only in one of the last four away matches Lokomotiv has scored more than one goal.

Forecast
"Spartak” on Thursday failed in its field in a duel with "Rapid”, and it became obvious that Kononov’s arrival did not become an instant panacea. The team is still weak in creation, makes a lot of mistakes in the defense. It was possible to score "Wings of the Soviets” and "Rapid”, but with a rich and experienced defense of "Lokomotiv” the "red-whites” can have serious problems.
"Railwaymen” play in a closed manner, and fatigue will not allow them to play bright attacking football, so a large number of goals in this match is hardly worth the wait.
In our opinion, the match will not be productive. The forecast is total less (2.5) goals. In the Betting League, such a bet can be placed with a odds of 1.68
