Dynamo Moscow vs Kryliya Prediction 22 October 2025
🔊 Which team will secure second place in Group B of the Russian Cup? Heading into the final round, both Dynamo Moscow and Krylya Sovetov have eight points each. They have already secured a spot in the playoffs, but the winner will enter the upper bracket, while the loser will drop to the lower bracket. It's crucial for both teams to clinch victory in the upcoming match, though much will depend on their lineups. Perhaps it's time to unleash their full strength at the VTB Arena. Bookmakers' predictions favor Dynamo Moscow. However, their inconsistent defense offers a solid opportunity for the Samara side.
Head-to-Head
📊 Over the span of 41 head-to-head matches, Dynamo Moscow hold the upper hand with a 46 percent win rate. However, in the Russian Cup, the "White-Blues" couldn't get past Krylia Sovetov, losing after a penalty shootout (0-1). In the league, they managed to take revenge. The Moscow side netted three goals in the first half but couldn't avoid a tense finish (3-2).
Dynamo Moscow rarely score more than two goals in head-to-head encounters. This has happened only twice in their last 18 meetings at VTB Arena. Krylia Sovetov don't have the worst defense, so it might be worth considering the option of home team total goals under 2.5.
Head-to-head statistics Dynamo Moscow - Kryliya

Dynamo Moscow Team Overview
Dynamo Moscow have made strides in their attacking play. They are closing in on the league leaders in terms of goals scored, but defensively, they resemble the teams at the bottom. This was evident in their match against Lokomotiv (3-5). Another challenging encounter was against Akhmat, labeled as a clash between the current and former Russia national team coaches. To the disappointment of many, the match ended in a 2-2 draw, despite Dynamo being the favorites. They managed to equalize only in injury time.
In the Russian Cup, Valery Karpin opts for a lineup far from his main squad. With a full injury list, youth team players have been getting game time. Now, with more first-team players available, recent matches have seen a much stronger lineup. This enabled them to thrash Sochi 4-0 and hold Krasnodar to a draw, although they lost out in the penalty shootout (0-1).

Krylya Sovetov Team Overview
Krylia Sovetov have gone four matches without a win in the RPL. In their last outing, they managed to secure a point with a draw against Orenburg (1-1), who recently changed their head coach. Samara conceded first but found an equalizer five minutes before full-time. This draw extended their lead over the relegation play-off zone to three points. However, given their start to the season, Krylia Sovetov might have hoped for more.
In the Russian Cup, Krylia Sovetov began with an away victory against Krasnodar (2-1). Yet, they haven't found success in regular time since. In their last cup match, Magomed Adiev's side engaged in a high-scoring duel with Sochi. Both teams netted three goals each, but Krylia Sovetov proved more accurate in the penalty shootout.

Dynamo Moscow
🎙 Valery Karpin shared his thoughts on the missed opportunity against Akhmat: "Once again, we've given away a goal from a throw-in. The game was going well, everything was fine, and then we got upset. A psychological blow? Yes. Do we need to keep playing? Absolutely. But when it happens in the second, third, seventh, eighth game... it's like a cold shower."
❌ Luis Chavez, Milan Majstorovic, and Arthur Gomes have been sidelined for a while. They've been joined by Andrey Lunev, and during the match against Akhmat, Anton Miranchuk picked up an injury. The severity of his injury will be assessed this week. Regardless, the Russian national team midfielder is unlikely to feature in the upcoming match.
Krylya Sovetov
🎙 Magomed Adiev reflected on the draw with Orenburg last weekend: "Both teams were aiming for more, but it ended in a draw. We have to accept this result. In some ways, it's a fair outcome. Of course, we need to improve. There were periods where we faltered."
❌ In the upcoming match, Maksim Vityugov and Tomas Galdames will be sidelined due to injuries sustained in September.
🟨 Referee and Yellow Cards
The main referee for the match is Vladislav Tselovalnikov. This season in the RPL, he has officiated two matches, averaging three yellow cards per game. Interestingly, in the Russian Cup, he averages 5.33 yellow cards, having overseen one more match.
In the Russian Cup, Krylia Sovetov receive yellow cards more frequently (1.8 compared to 1.3). Matches involving these teams average no more than four warnings. In their two head-to-head encounters this season, they only saw one yellow card. The referee is likely to aim for his league average, so we suggest betting on total yellow cards under 3.5.
⚽️ Goal Prediction
Dynamo Moscow are prolific scorers but also concede regularly. Against Krylia Sovetov, goals can be expected at both ends. Notably, 8 of the last 9 Russian Cup games involving the Samara side have not ended without goals. Therefore, we recommend betting on both teams to score (yes).
🚩 Corner Prediction
Krylia Sovetov have an edge in corners in the Russian Cup, averaging 6 against Dynamo Moscow's 5.6. Matches featuring these teams see an average of 8.6 corners, while Dynamo Moscow's games average 9.4. In the first round of this tournament, the opponents combined for eight corner kicks. Thus, we suggest betting on total corners under 9.5.
Editor's Prediction
Dynamo Moscow are the favorites for the upcoming clash. The “White-Blues” rarely score more than two goals in their home head-to-heads, while Krylia Sovetov have managed no more than one goal in their last 14 matches at the VTB Arena. This suggests that the game might not be particularly high-scoring. Based on trends and taking a maximalist approach, a final score of 2-1 seems likely.
Recent matches involving Dynamo Moscow have been high-scoring, though not in the Russian Cup. The team lacks a strong goalkeeper, with none of the three keepers inspiring confidence, and defensive errors are frequent. In this match, goals from both sides are expected, but a goal from the visitors is valued quite highly on its own. Meanwhile, the Samara side has scored in 11 of their last 12 away games, making Krylia Sovetov to score our key bet.
