No, Marx anticipated that Germany or England would become the first socialist countries because they were the most industrialized of the capitalist countries. Because of that they had the most developed proletariat. Marx believed the workers revolution required that intense capitalist phase in order to crystallize the differences between the bourgeoisie and the proletariat. In Russia, that hadn't happened yet, so Marx did not see communism taking root in Russia yet. In fact, he thought Russia was totally unsuitable at the time.

No, Karl Marx did not predict that Russia would be the first socialist nation. Marx believed that a socialist revolution would likely happen in advanced industrialized nations with a strong working class, such as Germany or the United Kingdom. Russia's path to socialism through the Bolshevik Revolution led by Lenin was not in line with Marx's predictions.
