Hard to say, on paper they should be better than back in 2014-15. They have been receiving extensive training and a lot of new equipment.

You also have a lot of veteran units since even though it does not get reported much, there has been a low level war going on since then with many 1-2 day ops to capture or defend key terrain positions.

But as Jim says, if the Russians mass everything, they should be able to roll over them. It won't be pretty though and the Russians will suffer a lot of casualties.
