Key Players
- Luciano Gondou has hit a purple patch in recent weeks for CSKA Moscow, scoring 4 times in their last 5 competitive games, and their overall firepower has increased as a result.
- Ronaldo Cesar is FC Rostov's top scorer in the Premier League 2025/2026 with 4 goals from 20 appearances and his clinical finishing will be needed once again if they are to get something from this game.
