Lokomotiv Kuban News
Lokomotiv, who played for the Euroleague final two seasons ago, is the only undefeated team in Eurocup this season. They have a perfect 16-0 after two group stages, but will now face a big challenge. Last season, after only four of them after the first group stage and the first after the Top 16, they eliminated Zenit in the quarter-finals with 2-0. In the semifinals, although they had the advantage of home court, unexpectedly with 0-2 fired from the later champions, Spanish Unicaja.
It can not be said that Canariu is in the best spot and form, although recently, for the first time in 18 years, won the Cup of Russia. Namely, Lokomotiv was defeated in the last three matches of the VTB League – home from Saratov and CSKA and last weekend away with Unics leader, who downgraded them with 65:93 (Collins 17 points). They remain in third place with a 12-4 ratio, as much as Zenit, but in the semifinals they could go to CSKA. That’s why Eurocup imposes them a bigger chance of returning to Euroleague.

Lokomotiv is a favorite, but in the series on two victories basket-difference and not so important. It is to be expected that the host will try only how-to get this game, while the guests will have the opportunity to take advantage of the home court and decide on the passage on their field. Canaria, after a triumph over Valenci, surely got the confidence and we are tipping a handicap to the guests.
