Dynamo Makhachkala — Krasnodar : Match Preview and Prediction for October 18,2025

Dynamo Makhachkala Home Form

Makhachkala’s home ground in Kaspiysk is largely an impregnable fortress. Dynamo earns the lion’s share of their points at home, which currently allows them to hover between direct survival and the relegation playoff zone. The White-Blues lost 0-2 to Baltika before the international break, but that match was in Kaliningrad, and Makhachkala conceded goals at the end of each half.At home in the RPL, and including cup matches, the White-Blues have an impressive 7-match unbeaten streak. Therefore, they are not willing to surrender 3 points easily to Krasnodar. Hosts Dapo and Sandrachuk, who have long been injured, will not play against the Russian champions.

Krasnodar’s Recent Form

Before the international break, Krasnodar defeated Akhmat 2-0 at home, maintaining their top-3 position in the league. However, that victory was hard-fought for Musaev’s side. Not only did Spertsyan quarrel with Nbong, but the opponent also missed a penalty, and Melkadze failed to score into an open net.The “Bulls'” defensive play wasn’t perfect, but three points are three points. We will observe the team after the international matches, as Krasnodar has more national team players than the hosts, which complicates the game in Kaspiysk. It will be challenging for Krasnodar to bring everyone back to normal collective form after players have traveled worldwide for international duty. Kobnan and Joao Martins will be absent for the “dark greens” against Dynamo, while Vitor Tormena is questionable.
