Lokomotiv have started this season quite briskly - in 6 rounds the Red-Greens have 15 points and are leading in the standings, the team also won two games in the cup.
Khimki can't boast similar successes, the team has long been an outsider in the Premier League, and given the current results, this season is unlikely to be an exception. In the cup matches Khimki picked up 3 points in two games, beating Orenburg at home and losing away to Rostov.
We don't think there will be a sensation today, as Lokomotiv play very confidently in cup matches.
Prediction: Lokomotiv to win. We recommend the “1 Win” bet, odds 1.54
