Russia vs USA Match Preview

The Americans will be without several top players. The list of excluded players has the names of Landon Donovan, Clint Dempsey, Graham Zusi and Kyle Beckerman. Klinsmann’s idea is to try out a number of youngsters such as defender Timmy Chandler. Jozy Altidore is also set to receive some playing time after missing USA’s last couple of fixtures.

Like his opposite number, Fabio Capello will give the opportunity for the youth to develop. Real Madrid’s Denis Cheryshev and Anzhi Makhachkala’s Fyodor Smolov have done well at the U-21 level.

Former England manager Fabio Capello has called both players ahead of Wednesday’s friendly.
Meanwhile, the exclusion of Yuri Zhirkov, Andrey Arshavin, Roman Pavlyuchenko and Pavel Pogrebnyak has been confirmed.
