Last season, Petersburg secured the championship. The last day of the match was played on July 22 and led to a narrow 2-1 victory over Rostov. With a total of 22 wins, six draws and two defeats, 72 goals were scored in the 30 matches. The lead on Moscow’s second-table locomotive was as much as 15 points and represented a very comfortable cushion. With 61 goals scored, the team is also distinguished by the league’s best offensive team.
The Super Cup must be secured before the new season can begin. As early as 2019, the two teams met in this event. At that time, locomotive Moscow prevailed narrowly 3-2. So St. Petersburg still has an old bill to settle.
Most recently, Petersburg won the title in 2016. At that time, the Super Cup ZSKA Moscow was to be defeated with a narrow 1-0 victory. For three years now, the team has been waiting to win the title. But will it finally be this year?
Immediately after the Super Cup, the Russian Premier League starts straight through. Four days after the power measurement with locomotive Moscow, the protégés of coach Sergey Semak have to pass against Volgograd.

For locomotives, it was only enough for the runner-up in the last season. With a record of 16 wins, nine draws and five defeats, 57 points were scored in the season. The gap to the top rider from Peterburg was 15 meters.
Some of the achievements could be described as mixed. The last two league games could be won against ZSKA and Ural Yekaterinburg, but Moscow previously had a series of four winless duels. This resulted in four remis. Overall, however, the second place in the table is a very good performance throughout the season. This was crowned with the Vice Championship.
Only last year was Moscow able to claim the title in the Super Cup. After 90 minutes, Petersburg won a narrow 3-2 victory. But will it be possible to repeat the performance again? That remains to be seen.
Once the Super Cup has expired, the Premier League will move in big steps. There, locomotive has to compete against Rubin Kasan on the first match day. The mating will take place on 11 August. Whether the vice champion will start the new season with a win remains to be seen.
