Russian football table. New clubs in rfpl

Rosgosstrakh The Russian Football Championship 2017-2018 is in full swing. The teams have already played 7 rounds out of the planned 30, which is almost a quarter of the distance. As a result, experts and fans have the opportunity to assess the success of individual clubs at the start of the championship. Someone met expectations, someone failed, someone remained at the usual level and did not present surprises.

The standings of Rosgosstrakh of the Russian Football Championship 2017-2018 at the moment is as follows:

After 7 played rounds, Zenit and Lokomotiv will advance to the group stage of the Champions League, and Rostov will play in qualifying. CSKA and Krasnodar are still in the Europa League zone, but several football teams are stepping on their heels at once.

Today, Amkar and Anji are on the way out from the Premier League. Arsenal (Tula) and SKA-Khabarovsk are in the play-off zone. These four have already formed a noticeable gap from the saving 12th place, so at the current level of play, the status quo is likely to remain until the end of the tournament.

Who pleased?

Looking at the Rosgosstrakh table of the 2017-2018 Russian football championship, we can say with confidence that it only caused positive emotions among its fans. The first season of Roberto Mancini in St. Petersburg is going perfectly: his players take the sole first place, demonstrating effective play and an enviable will to win. In 7 games, the blue-white-blues have scored the most in the league (16 goals) and conceded the least (3). Several factors speak in favor of Zenit's championship:

• balanced composition;
• wide bench;
• good microclimate in the team;
• confident actions on the field of leaders (Kokorin, Paredes, Driussi, etc.)

The scandals at Zenit have sunk into oblivion with the departure of Mircea Lucescu. Even Artem Dziuba, sitting on the bench, does not show discontent and speaks of his intention to win back a place at the base through intensive training. Separately, mention should be made of European competitions: if the St. Petersburg team fail the Europa League qualification, for which there are certain preconditions, then the club's fans can already stock up on champagne. With a schedule of 1 match per week, Zenit will simply have no equal c.

We will add Rostov to the list of teams that made their fans happy. After Poloz, Erokhin and a whole galaxy of footballers who determined the game left in the offseason, experts predicted a place for Rostovites in the second part of the table. After 7 rounds, Leonid Kuchuk's charges go to the Champions League zone, demonstrating rational actions on the field. Even if he scored not so many (only 8 goals), he conceded only 3. Even top forwards cannot pick up the keys to Sergei Pesyakov's goal, and in the Premier League a reliable defense is already half the battle on the way to European competitions.

Who surprised?

Rosgosstrakh The Russian Football Championship 2017-2018 was marked by a number of unpredictable ups and downs of some football teams. The list of clubs that surprised by their performance includes:

• "Locomotive";
• Ural;
• Amkar.

Lokomotiv can be called, without reservations, the main opening of the Premier League start. Before the last round, skeptics linked the success of the "railroad workers" with easy calendar, but the strong-willed victory over Spartak proved that the players are ready to fight for the highest places. So far, this is the only serious competitor to Zenit for the first line, and if during the tournament Yuri Semin's charges continue to improve, they will certainly remain in the Champions League zone. A tight schedule can make adjustments to the team's plans, because already from September 2017 Lokomotiv will play at the group stage of the Europa League, which means at least 6 additional matches.

One of the main questions Rosgosstrakh of the Russian Championship 2017-2018 remains when Ural loses. Oleg Tarkhanov's charges are a tough nut to crack, especially at home. At the start of the championship, the club from Yekaterinburg demonstrates meaningful football and does not know defeat. Nevertheless, the next match with Lokomotiv will become a serious test for the players, when it becomes clear how much the Ural's safety margin will be.

Amkar's game caused surprise with a minus sign. The Rosgosstrakh calendar of the Russian Championship 2017-2018 for the Permians was quite well drawn up: strong opponents alternated with weak ones. Many predicted that Haji Hajiyev's wards would struggle for, but not for, survival. Two draws in 7 matches and the pitiful number 1 in the goals scored column indicate a deep crisis in the team. Perhaps the patience of the management will run out already in the 8th round, and we are waiting for the first coaching resignation in the RFPL in 2017-2018.

Who disappointed?

At the very least, the game of Spartak is alarming for the multi-million army of fans. On the eve of the start in the Champions League, Massimo Carrera's wards lost their second fight in a row with principal rivals - first, CSKA snatched the victory, and then Lokomotiv defeated the red-whites on their field. Spartak's problems are obvious:

• weak defense (13 conceded goals - the most in the league);
• injuries of leading football players (Zobina, Ze Luis, etc.);
• unstable attacking play;
• lack of moral and volitional qualities.

This season, the most popular team has forgotten how to act according to the account. Leading in fights with Dynamo, CSKA and Lokomotiv, the red-whites repeatedly missed the victory, and this is a potential 9 points scored. All this led to a sad outcome: the reigning champion of the country is in 11th place in the standings, just 3 points from the zone of joints with clubs.

We can confidently call Anji the weakest team in the Russian championship. Yes - the team was completely rebuilt in the summer, yes - its financial budget is limited, but clubs with a more modest budget and less talented players perform much better. So far, “Makhachkala residents” have 3 points and the only victory over sinking “Amkar” after 7 rounds. The light at the end of the tunnel is not visible for Anji: more than all conceded goals, lack of will to win, inability to rebuild during the match. At the moment, the club is a clear contender for a demotion.

Interesting facts about the start of the championship

Let's note a number of entertaining moments of Rosgosstrakh of the Russian Football Championship 2017-2018:

1. The most uncompromising team in the Premier League is Akhmat. For 6 rounds, Oleg Kononov's wards have never drawn: 3 wins and 3 losses.
2. The most "dry" RFPL club is SKA-Khabarovsk: in 7 rounds with the club's participation, only 10 goals were scored and never more than 2 per game.
3. Most of the successful draws were recorded in the matches with Ural. The club from Yekaterinburg finished fights 4 times with a score of 1: 1, and once - with a score of 2: 2.
4. The biggest victory in the championship stratum was won by Rubin. In the 7th round, Anji was defeated with a score of 6: 0.
5. The best scorer of the RFPL at the moment is Alexander Kokorin. Zenit striker scored 6 goals in 7 matches, which is 1 more than in the entire last season.

Thus, Rosgosstrakh, whose standings you can see on our website, is rightfully considered one of the most spectacular tournaments over the past few years. Before the 2018 FIFA World Cup, many players applying for the national teams are trying to demonstrate their leadership qualities and skills in order to speak at the main football forum of the four years. The more interesting it will be for the fans to watch the vicissitudes of the national championship.

At the same time, Tosno plays his home matches in St. Petersburg at the former home arena of Zenit - the Petrovsky stadium.

The position of the teams in the standings of the Russian Championship 2017-2018

According to the table of the Russian Football Championship 2017-2018, it can be seen that after 16 rounds the first two lines are occupied by Lokomotiv and Zenit - both places guarantee the right to participate in the group stage of the UEFA Champions League 2017-2018.

RFPL standings

A detailed table of the Russian Premier League will help you get acquainted with the current state of affairs in the national football championship. The density is very high, the difference in points between football teams is sometimes very small. Zenit is stepping on the heels of Lokomotiv, and other clubs should not be discounted. The match calendar has been drawn up in such a way that the clubs will play 20 rounds by the end of the year. The championship will then resume on March 4th. The Russian Cup was held from July 14, 2017 to May 9, 2018. Premier League standings:

Results of matches RFPL

The tournament table of the Russian championship 2017-2018 pleases with a rich struggle between the clubs. Several teams have already made coaching changes during the season. Spartak home attendance lost the palm to Zenit, yielding to him by this indicator with a large gap. RFPL results last two rounds:

Who pleased in the season

According to the results of the Russian football championship, Zenit showed itself well. Although sometimes the club's players from St. Petersburg have failures, for example, a defeat at the home stadium with a score of 0: 3 - more than 45 thousand fans were present at the match with Lokomotiv. The table of the Russian football championship 2017-2018 shows that St. Petersburg residents are showing a good game, taking second place. They conceded the least of all goals - only 9, and scored 23. They have a balanced line-up, a wide bench and confident actions on the field of leaders, which include Kokorin, Driussi, Paredes and others. 43,903 spectators - previously it was 18084 spectators. At the moment, "Zenith" is in 31st place in the pan-European indicator of attendance. In the Europa League, he is second only to Arsenal - 48439 against 59359.

The Czech Republic football table has an interesting line-up of teams. FC Krasnodar is performing well, occupying the 4th position after 15 rounds, having 24 points in its asset. The Krasnodar team is only 1 point away from the 3rd place. The squad from Krasnodar recently beat Ska-Khabarovsk with a crushing score of 4: 1. The bulls' home arena is also filling up quite well. On average, a little more than 23 thousand fans come to each home match - the third indicator after Zenit and Spartak.

Rostov could also be included in the list of teams that delighted the fans. Despite the departure during the offseason of Erokhin, Poloz and a number of other important players, the Rostovites showed excellent football at the start of the season. The performance of the games was good, because after the first seven rounds L. Kuchuk's charges were in the Champions League zone. True, then the team slowed down and shifted from 3rd place to 11th.

Surprise is also caused by the nature of the game of Perm "Amkar", but with a minus sign. The FPL (Football Premier League) calendar was compiled for the Permians well, because strong squads alternated with weak ones. Some experts predicted that the footballers under the leadership of Haji Hajiyev would fight for the European competition. Russian Football Championship 2017-2018 table: 12th place after 16 games. Only the best difference in scored and conceded goals separates from the place of joints "Amkar".

Major League contenders

The Russian football league table after 16 rounds demonstrates that one of the outsiders is the newcomer of the Premier League - Khabarovsk SKA-Khabarovsk. The club's statistics looks depressing, with only 12 points scored - 2 wins, 6 draws and 6 losses. Dynamo Moscow became another outsider of the 2017-2018 Russian football championship table. Anzhi, Tosno, Amkar are located relatively close to the relegation zone.

Top scorers of the Russian Championship 2017-2018

Zenit strikers Alexander Kokorin and Krasnodar Fedor Smolov scored the most goals - each scored 8 goals. Moreover, the first had to play 16 matches for this, and the second only 10.

Key dates of the 2017/2018 season

In the match for the Russian Super Cup, in which the last season champion Spartak and the winner of the Russian Cup Lokomotiv met, the red and white won (2: 1).

Zenit met with Spartak in the 4th round and won a major victory over their principal rival (5: 1). The match in Moscow took place on November 27 within the 18th round and ended in a 3: 1 victory for the hosts.

Round 6 game between CSKA and reigning champion The Premier League ended with a 2: 1 victory for the army club. The return leg took place on the Spartak field on December 10 and ended in a 3-0 win for the hosts.

The first meeting of CSKA and Zenit in the Russian football championship took place in Moscow on October 22 and ended in a goalless draw. The return game in St. Petersburg within the 28th round also ended in a goalless draw.

Lokomotiv secured the championship in the 29th round match, beating Zenit at home with a score of 1: 0.

The final of the Russian Football Cup took place on May 9, 2018. "Tosno" outplayed in decisive match Kursk "Avangard" with a score of 2: 1.

Which will be held in Russia for the first time in history. As a result, the 26th season in the top flight will be tight and will end 2-3 weeks earlier than usual. As a result, physical fitness, especially in the spring part of the championship, comes to the fore, since teams often have to play two matches a week, not counting the Russian Cup.

The RFPL 2017-2018 has not undergone major changes in terms of the format and the scoring system. The only caveat will be the opportunity to play in the Champions League qualification for the team that took the third place in the table according to the results of the championship. The fight in the championship will only get fiercer, because a chance to play in one of the most prestigious tournaments of the Old World is both a solid bonus and a good financial help to the club.

16 teams will continue to play in the top football division in the coming season. The start of the RFPL is scheduled for July 13, 2017, and the competition will end on May 13, 2018. For the sixth season in a row, the Russian Championship is held according to the "autumn-spring" system, which implies a long winter break. The tournament will be divided into two parts:

• 19 rounds will run from July 13 to December 19, 2017;
• 11 rounds will be played from March 4 to May 13, 2018.

The winner of the tournament automatically gets into the group stage of the Champions League, the second and third lines also guarantee participation in this tournament. The teams ranked fourth and fifth in the 2017-2018 RFPL will take part in the second most prestigious club competition - the Europa League.

The teams that are on the last two lines in the table (that is, 15 and 16) are automatically transferred to the division with a rank below -. Positions from 13 to 14 give the right to fight for the right to remain in the country's football elite with the third and fourth teams of the FNL. There are two games (on the home field and on the opponent's arena), according to the results of which it is determined who will play in the next season of the Premier League, and who will go to travel around the small towns and villages of our vast Motherland. If during regular time of play-offs the winner cannot be identified, two additional halves of 15 minutes each are assigned, and then a penalty shootout.

Match schedule 13 round of the RFPL 2017-2018 looks like this:

The tournament table of the RFPL after 12 played rounds looks like this:

New clubs in the RFPL

At the end of the 2016-2017 season, a number of teams fought for the right to remain in the top football division. The most unlucky ones were “Tom” and “Wings of the Soviets”, who were relegated to the FNL from the last two places in the table. Orenburg and Tula Arsenal took part in the play-offs, but only the last squad managed to keep their registration in the elite. SKA-Khabarovsk knocked Orenburg out of the Premier League in a penalty shootout and will fight the best football teams in the country in the coming season. In addition, the following teams were added to the Russian Championship:

• Dynamo (Moscow);
• "Tosno" (Leningrad region).

As for SKA-Khabarovsk, the club itself probably did not expect to enter the Russian Premier League in 2017-2018. This summer, 9 footballers who were involved in entering the Russian Championship left the team at once. Most of them have ended their contracts, which the bosses of the Far East club did not renew. So far, only midfielder Savichev from Spartak-2 has been bought to replace the departed players. So far, SKA-Khabarovsk is located dangerously close to the relegation zone, and it is not possible to successfully oppose skilled opponents from the Premier League with only one youth in the team. According to experts, in order to be guaranteed to stay in the elite Russian football, the club needs to score at least 30 points. It is not yet clear how SKA-Khabarovsk will do this, but there is still time to correct the situation, and the fans are waiting for a clear game from the players.

The legendary Moscow Dynamo, after an inglorious departure from the Russian Championship in the 2015-2016 season, won the FNL and returned to the elite. Despite financial difficulties, new contracts were signed with all the key players. In addition, forward Wanderson was purchased from Krasnodar to strengthen the attack. Of the significant purchases of the blue and white, we also note the midfielder Sow from Kayserispor, defender Shunich from Stuttgart, striker Panchenko, the rights to which were bought from the capital. Obviously, in the new RFPL draw, Yuri Kolitvintsev's wards set themselves the highest tasks, but they will hardly be able to swing at the top three. The team has a serious crisis that pushed it into the relegation zone. The situation was aggravated by a demarche of fans who refused to support the club indefinitely. In such a situation, Dynamo will have to show their character, otherwise at the end of the championship they will again have to pack their bags for the second strongest division.

FC Tosno has become one of the most active newsmakers of the transfer market. The team strengthened itself with several inexpensive, but quite competitive players in the Premier League. For example, the goalkeeper's line was completely renewed: Gutor, Yurchenko, Oparin - now it's not scary for the team from the Leningrad Region to go beyond the last line. Forward Vukushevich, who came from Greuther-Furth, and Melkadze, on loan from Spartak, will play in the attack at Tosno. The defensive line and the middle of the field have been significantly updated: here Tosno has no problems either. The club's management, making such solid acquisitions, probably counted on at least the top ten in the standings, but the reality turned out to be harsher. The team did not manage to achieve the intended goal, and after 12 rounds it is in the play-off zone.

Title contenders

Unlike, where at least six teams compete for the first line, in the Premier League this number is much smaller. If not for the championship, then the following teams will definitely apply for the top lines in the 2017-2018 RFPL standings:

• CSKA Moscow (Moscow);
• "Spartak Moscow);
• Krasnodar
• Zenit (St. Petersburg).

St. Petersburg "Zenith" is seriously aiming at the championship in the upcoming Premier League draw. After an unsuccessful performance in the 2016-2017 season, when the team won only third place, the club's management made dramatic changes. First, Romanian coach Mircea Lucescu was fired, and he was replaced by Roberto Mancini, experienced in his work in the leading clubs of Europe. Secondly, Zenit spared no money to strengthen it. Obviously, with such significant financial injections, the bosses of the team from the banks of the Neva are counting on both a successful performance in the Europa League and another title in the main football division of Russia.

In the offseason, the army team did not make any serious acquisitions, but extended contracts with key players (Ignashevich and Fernandez). Obviously, CSKA thinks that proven footballers are better than dubious reinforcements. Nevertheless, it would not hurt to acquire a hammer-in striker for Viktor Goncharenko's squad. The bet is on Vitinho, who, although he added in recent times, but it is obvious that tenacious defenders "eat up" him in important matches. As a result, the Russian championship and the Champions League have to play with the same squad. This affects the game of Viktor Goncharenko's charges, who have so far secured the fourth line. standings.

The current champion of the RFPL 2016-2017, Spartak, was systematically preparing to defend the title. Rumors about the transfer of coach Massimo Carrera have been dispelled: the Italian specialist will work at least until the end of the season. It is almost impossible to predict how Spartak will perform in the current season, as the club will have to play on two fronts - in the domestic league and in the group stage of the Champions League. At the moment, neither there nor there the red and white have not been able to demonstrate their full potential. In the Premier League, the club is in sixth place, and the gap from the first "Zenith" has already reached 11 points.

Krasnodar's game this season pleases the fans. Igor Shalimov's charges were second for a long time, and only offensive defeats in the last two rounds pushed the team to the third line. “Bulls” need to urgently work on their mistakes and systematically prepare for each match, especially since the club is not burdened with performances in the international arena. In the current Premier League draw, Krasnodar, under a certain set of circumstances, is able to swing at the top three, which will allow it to play in the Champions League for the first time in 2018-2019.

"Dark Horses" RFPL

In addition to CSKA, Spartak, Zenit, there are several teams in the Premier League that are capable of shooting and getting a wedge in the fight for the top three. The list of such clubs should include:

• Rostov;
• "Akhmat"
• "Rubin Kazan);
• Lokomotiv (Moscow).

After a relatively unsuccessful performance last year in the Russian championship, fundamental changes have taken place in Rostov. Leonid Kuchuk came to the coaching bridge, after which a thorough cleaning of the squad began. So, for example, Noboa was sold to Zenit, they did not renew contracts with Cesar Navas, Dzhanaev, Devich. They were replaced by seven new players (Makeev, Parshivlyuk, Abaev, Pesyakov) and, according to rumors, it is planned to buy 3-4 more players to strengthen them. In general, we will no longer see the former Rostov: a renewed team appeared in front of the fans. Kuchuk quickly managed to establish team interactions, and Rostov ended up in seventh place with a minimal lag behind the European Cup zone.

Akhmat's coaching staff changed in the offseason: Oleg Kononov was appointed to the helmsman position, but this did not bring stability. At the start of the championship, the club issued a protracted streak of four defeats, which did not allow them to rise above fifth place. Akhmat's squad is combat-ready, so if there are no slumps in the game, the team can count on getting into the Europa League at the end of the 2017-2018 championship.

Kazan "Rubin" in the offseason also changed the head coach. Instead of Javier Gracia, who failed in the last championship, Kurban Berdyev came. Strengthening the squad was insignificant - only Ozdoev, Granat and a number of little-known football players were bought. If we consider the prospects of the club in the top division, they are very vague: the team from the first rounds taught its fans to be inconsistent. Most likely, in the current drawing, Rubin will remain a middle peasant, and the fruits of the work of one of best trainers Russia will show up next season.

Unlike Rubin, Moscow's Lokomotiv, thanks to their victory in the Russian Cup this season, will represent the country in the Europa League. To fight on two fronts, the "railroad workers" had too short a bench, therefore, to strengthen the offseason, they extended the lease with striker Ari, returned defender Shishkin from the lease at Krasnodar and signed a full-fledged contract with midfielder Denisov. Loko has excellent chances to break into the top three, especially since the brothers Miranchuks, Manuel Fernandes, Guilherme demonstrate excellent play. The result of the well-coordinated work of the coaching staff and the players was the intermediate second line in the RFPL.

Fight for survival

In addition to SKA-Khabarosk, there are several other teams in the elite of Russian football, which experts ranked among the outsiders of the championship. The following teams will fight for the right to stay in the RFPL in 2018-2019:

• Anji;
• "Tosno";
• "Dynamo";
• SKA-Khabarovsk;
• Arsenal (Tula).

About Dynamo, Khabarovsk and Tosno were mentioned earlier, but Anji should be discussed separately. The team from Makhachkala did not play well at the start of the tournament, and only with the arrival of Vadim Skripchenko on the coaching bridge, the players began to show a solid game. Two draws with Spartak and Zenit set the local fans in a positive mood, but the team still has a lot of work to get out of the relegation zone.

In Tula "Arsenal", which won the right to stay in the first division in the last RFPL at the junctions, was replaced Main coach... Miodrag Bozovic is no stranger to pulling out soccer teams from the bottom of the standings, and it looks like in the current draw the Serbian specialist will have to show all his rescue skills again. To rely on the coaching genius of Bozovic is at least dangerous: you can even find yourself below the play-off zone.

Interesting facts about the RFPL 2017-2018

It must be amusing to find out a few facts about the Premier League:

• in the new drawing, the RFPL will be “re-branded”;
• football club "Terek" (Grozny) was renamed to "Akhmat";
• the league's management will actively promote the RFPL brand abroad;
• RFU seriously thought about tightening the limit for legionnaires up to 5 players;
• the number of clubs in the top division may be reduced to 14 (but not earlier than 2018).

Although football in Russia is represented not only by the Premier League, which is scheduled to start on July 13, 2017, the most interesting events will take place here. This tournament is not distinguished by entertainment, as, for example, the German championship, but in it the teams sometimes demonstrate a high-quality game, worthy of the fans' attention. Don't miss the start of a competition that promises to be exciting, uncompromising and unpredictable.
