Sychev declared Spartak as the top player of the season and exhibited faith in Krasnodar securing the championship title.
Score a Bonus Point!Former Russian national team striker Dmitry Sychev, chatting it up with "Match TV", dishes on the Russian Premier League showdown and names his MVP pick. Sychev's money's on Krasnodar's star midfielder, Eduard Spertsyan, a 24-year-old dynamo ace from Armenia. According to Sychev, the prince of the pitch shines brightly, steers his crew, and deserves the MVP title if they take home the big trophy.
Talking Turkey, Sychev is confident that Krasnodar, leading the pack with 58 points, will keep Zenit (54 points) on their tail.
The talking head also stresses that he roots for an interesting finish line before the final whistle blows, but leans towards the "bulls." Despite the lead, he reminds everyone that football is as unpredictable as a late-night roller coaster – even a four-point lead with four games left doesn't guarantee a championship.
While Sychev doesn't go into the deets about the golden match clauses, he does hint at the possibility of an extra showdown if the season ends in a tie.

Krasnodar: Leading the pack, Krasnodar needs to maintain their stellar performance to secure the league title.

- Despite their current lead, Sychev recalls that football is as unpredictable as a late-night roller coaster, emphasizing that a four-point lead with four games left doesn't guarantee the championship.
- Although Sychev did not discuss the golden match clauses, he hinted at a possible extra showdown if the season ends in a tie between Krasnodar and other strong contenders in the race for the RPL title.
