Neutral30%
The win and draw rates of Spartak Moscow (60% and 20%) indicate a stable performance but not overly superior compared to other teams in the league.
The frequency of using the 4-1-4-1 formation (50%) and 4-2-3-1 formation (20%) indicates a lack of flexibility in tactics, but has not directly affected the match results.
The current goal difference is +9 (17 goals scored, 8 goals conceded), reflecting the balance between attack and defense, but is not enough to confirm superiority.
Reserve players such as Prutsev, Massalyga, Dmitriev, and Daku have not created significant value, but are not an urgent problem as the starting lineup remains stable.
Negative20%
An average of 2.8 yellow cards per match (totaling 28 cards) indicates poor match discipline, with matches such as against Krylya Sovetov (3 yellow cards) and Dynamo Moscow (4 yellow cards).
The defense occasionally showed signs of being shaky, especially in the only loss (1-2 against Dynamo Moscow) when conceding two goals in the first half.
