Former captain of Moscow "Lokomotiv" Dmitriy Loskov evaluated the start of the new season in the Russian Premier League. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
The Muscovites achieved a significant victory of 3:0 against the "Sochi" team at home. According to Loskov, the beginning of the season is always difficult.
There is a big difference between training sessions and friendly matches and the championship. Currently, all opponents are equally strong, so it is hard to determine how well each team is prepared.
He also noted that "Lokomotiv" will play against the country champion "Krasnodar" in the second round. The former team captain cited the match between Moscow "Dinamo" and "Baltika" in the first round as an example of the unpredictability of the championship results.
In that match, the Kaliningrad team almost defeated the "white-blue" team. The game between "Krasnodar" and "Lokomotiv" will take place on July 26 and will start at 19:00 Moscow time.
This match will be one of the important tests of the new season. The teams will take the field to showcase their strength.
