Former head coach of the Russian national team Vladimir Krikunov told “” that CSKA added during the KHL playoffs, noting that the Moscow team will end the series of the second round of the Gagarin Cup with the Yaroslavl “Locomotive” in their favor.

Before the sixth match, which will take place on Monday in Yaroslavl, the score of the series is 3-2 in favor of CSKA. The winner of the confrontation will find themselves in the final of the Western Conference with SKA Saint Petersburg.

– CSKA and Lokomotiv play pretty much the same. When the army team comes together, they usually win. Although in Game 5 they had a 100% attitude. And it’s a big plus for Lokomotiv that he held in this match and that he did not cash.

Who will qualify for the Western Conference Finals?

– I think CSKA will release this series after all. They play like that all season, as if they weren’t completely tense. But the closer we get to the final, the more the army team adds. They are playing worse and worse. Therefore, residents of Yaroslavl will have a hard time even at home. Moreover, now everyone is already used to the arenas, it does not matter where to play – at home or away, – Krikunov told “”.

Watch the Lokomotiv-CSKA match live from 7:15 p.m. Moscow time on the channel, as well as on the matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru sites.
