Opening
Seen through the eyes of a Baltika supporter, the game on 19 April is not a story about how the leader should calmly take three points. It is a story about something else: whether Krasnodar can once again be dragged into the kind of football they find unpleasant.
Because such a match has already happened. In the first half of the season in Kaliningrad it was 1:1. And it was not the kind of draw where you get away with it, dig in and leave satisfied. No. Baltika were closer to winning than Krasnodar were to calm control. The most important thing already happened: we saw that this opponent can be made nervous, sticky and unconvincing. The only question now is whether it can be repeated away.
