The match of the 18th round of the Russian Premier League (RPL) between the capital CSKA and Tula “Arsenal” will take place in accordance with the tournament calendar. This was reported on the website of the army club.
The club said in a statement that the issue of postponing the game due to frost was indeed discussed. The final decision on this matter will be made directly by the match delegate in the presence of both teams. Also, the CSKA press service reports that work is underway at the red-blue stadium to correct the shortcomings that were identified after the match against Zenit. The meeting with the Tula will take place without spectators.
Earlier it was reported that RPL will postpone the match between CSKA and Arsenal for the spring part of the championship. According to journalist Vasily Konov, the reason for such an initiative is the unfavorable weather situation in Moscow. At the same time, “Sport-Express” reported on claims against CSKA by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which identified shortcomings at the army stadium.
CSKA after 17 matches of the Russian championship takes fifth place in the standings. The Tula are on the 11th line.
