Krasnodar attempted what could seem like a fightback when Leon Sabua reduced the deficit in the 58th minute.
But Jordan Larsson scored the third goal for Spartak Moscow nine minutes from time to seal the victory for the visitors.
Moses, who has now made two League appearances, did not play the entire game as he was replaced by Andrey Eschenko in the 83rd minute.
