After the first two rounds of the Russian Premier League, the only leader remains the "Lokomotiv" team. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
The Moscow club is the only one to have managed to accumulate the maximum points during the two rounds. Former Russian national team player Aleksandr Mostovoy commented on the "Railwaymen" and their future prospects.
Mostovoy referred to the team led by Mikhail Galaktionov as a "dark horse" and emphasized that he did not expect "Lokomotiv" to win against "Krasnodar" away. The former "Celta" player expressed confidence in the champions' victory.
Mostovoy stated that "Lokomotiv" could enter the top three in the Premier League championship. At the beginning of last season, when "Lokomotiv" was in high positions, Mostovoy did not expect them to remain at the top by the end.
However, this season they are striving to enter the top three. The club has made good transfer moves, including Rudenko, who has recorded 1+2 stats in two games so far, said Mostovoy in an interview with "Match TV".
At the same time, he emphasized that it is too early to draw definite conclusions after two rounds. In the third round of the Russian championship, "Lokomotiv" will face "Pari NN" away.
