In a match between CSKA And “Lokomotiv-Kuban” an equal fight is expected, but the army team will try to draw conclusions from the defeats of the “red-greens” in the last three matches, honored coach of Russia Sergei Elevich told .
Lokomotiv will host CSKA in the VTB United League match in Krasnodar on January 13. The game will start at 2:30 p.m. (Moscow time). The army team leads the championship standings, Loko is fourth.
— CSKA lost to Lokomotiv in the last three matches. Do army players experience psychological pressure before matches with railway workers?
— CSKA is an ambitious club and you don’t always have to find yourself in a zone of turbulence. My firm conviction is that they will draw the consequences from these failures. The match should work. Everyone is waiting for this meeting. The bud, i.e. the game, should open in this match.
I don’t want to predict who can beat who, but I have no doubt that we will see a very good match. Here it is difficult to talk about the advantages of rivals over each other: the teams are equal in strength, equal and persistent fights are expected. But CSKA was inferior to Lokomotiv in the last matches because the Krasnodar team found the key to the opponent’s defensive actions, which helped them win.
I really like the fact that Russian basketball players play a key role at Lokomotiv. At the same time, the residents of Krasnodar themselves brought them up in their basketball academy. There are 4-5 of these players that I like to watch. It is very important that we trust them. I think Lokomotiv is on the right track in this regard. I’ve never seen a fourth issue as great as Andrey Martyuk. What technical equipment does he have? And it was our coaches who prepared it, ”Elevich told the correspondent.
Last season, the Krasnodar team defeated CSKA in the semi-finals of the United League playoffs (4-3), and this season they beat the “red and blue” in the quarter-finals of the Super Cut and in the first round. of the first stage of the regular season of the VTB United League.
