With a match starting at 20:45 (Moscow time) on Thursday, 9 December 2021, the teams in Group C will finish off their participation in the Europa League group stage. So, Legia Warszawa and Spartak Moscow will meet in a head-to-head encounter at the Marshal Józef Piłsudski Stadium in Warsaw.
For the Muscovites, the upcoming match is the cornerstone game of the current season. Reaching the Europa League play-offs could be the only real success for Spartak. The Poles are clearly no gift, but the Red-Whites are in a good position to take on the Polish redoubt. Our prediction for the Legia vs Spartak Moscow match would help you make the right bet on the upcoming game.
Legia
After a brisk start, Legia is at the bottom of the Group C standings today. Marek Golembiewski’s side has 6 points and needs only a win against Spartak to open the door to the play-offs. In the domestic league, however, things aren’t looking good for Legia. Last week’s 0-1 defeat at the hands of Kraków dropped Legia to 15th place in the Polish Extras.
Spartak Moscow
Rui Vitoria’s team has picked up a little by the middle of the season. After their win against Napoli, Spartak has managed to improve their standing in the Europa League. Before the game with Legia, the Red-Whites have 7 points and a good chance to get out of the group; only a win will bring success. Last weekend, Spartak Moscow was beaten 2-1 by Akhmat Grozny.
Head-to-head statistics
Legia and Spartak have faced off five times at the official level. Each team has two wins; one game ended in a draw.
