Guides > League Guides > Russian Premier League
The Russian Premier League is in the process of
becoming a major power on the European stage. This is best illustrated
by the recent UEFA Cup win for CSKA Moscow. Despite weather conditions
not being the best for top quality football, it is beginning to attract
some star names, as well as having some good emerging talent of its own.
League Structure:
-
Top 2 teams qualify for Champions League - 2nd place has to go through
qualifying round
-
Russian Cup winners and the sides finishing 3rd - 4th qualify for UEFA
Cup
- Bottom 2 teams are relegated

CM 2010 section
We will soon be starting work on our new CM 2010 section, which should
be up within the next week. I hope to build up some
comprehensive lists of all the best players, tactics, set pieces
routines and training schedules. I am also hoping to
start a new Lower League Section, with help and guides
for those who chose to start their managerial careers further
down the footballing ladder. If anyone is interested in
helping with the Lower League section or any other area of the
site, then please send me an e-mail at
