Preview
CSKA Moscow head into this after a 2-0 loss to Veles Moscow in their previous clash last Friday.
It was a poor start to the new campaign as Logua and Yezkhov found the net to inflict the defeat on CSKA.
The hosts have another three matches in terms of friendlies before their new campaign begins against Ural in mid-July.
Hence, a return to winning ways is key in order to get their season up and running.
On the other hand, Zenit beat Sochi in their pre-season friendly match on penalties 4-2 after it finished 1-1 in regulation time.
Bakaev broke the deadlock for Zenit before Melkadze equalized for Sochi to ensure a share of the spoils.
However, the win on penalties was enough to get them successive victories.
Zenit eye a third win of the pre-season before they face FK Crvena Zvezda in their final warm-up.
