CSKA vs Lokomotiv-Kuban. Match of the top teams of Russian basketball
On December 16, CSKA Moscow will host Krasnodar Lokomotiv Kuban in the 17th round of the VTB United League 2022/23 regular championship. The game will take place on the floor of the Krylatskoye sports complex in Moscow.
16 matches in the VTB United League season 2022/23 behind. There are no defeats. An amazing series of wins and a well-deserved first place in the championship table. "CSKA" are very good in every meeting. There is a feeling that they are head and shoulders above all their rivals (except, perhaps, UNICS). On the other hand, sooner or later Muscovites will unnecessarily relax and stumble. This is the only thing their opponents can hope for.
We note a comfortable calendar of Muscovites in this period. In the 15th round they had a light trip to Minsk, in which Shved and Milutinov got a rest. Further, the team removed Samara from its path without any problems, and now the Muscovites have a battle with Krasnodar. Although the “soldiers” have less rest before the upcoming meeting than their opponent. CSKA is obliged to put up its best basketball players for the duel with the “railroad workers”.
Lokomotiv-Kuban
The team had a hard start in the 2022/23 VTB League, but gradually managed to stabilize the situation. The Railroaders are currently in fifth place with nine wins and seven losses. There are more positive results than misfires, and in part this fact should be rejoiced.
Although there is something to think about. In the last match, the Kuban lost to the MBA, and they had no special chances to win in this battle. It turns out that the current Loko lags behind the not-so-best team of the previous Superleague in terms of level. In the summer, Krasnodar updated the roster, and, perhaps, they made some mistakes in this rebuilding.
In the aforementioned lost meeting in the "locomotives" showed themselves well: Burford (16 points and six rebounds), Willis (15/9), Martyuk (15 points in the opponent's ring), Kvitkovsky (10). Loko lost because of their mistakes. Failed implementation. Misses in free throws look especially offensive here. The coach explained this fact by the too young composition of his team.
