Match Preview
As Lokomotiv Moskva prepares to host Baltika in the Russian Cup on August 13, the match promises to be an intriguing encounter. Lokomotiv comes into this fixture with a solid recent form, recording three wins and a draw in their last five matches, although they did suffer a defeat in their most recent outing. In contrast, Baltika has struggled, managing only one win in their last five, which may put them at a disadvantage as they travel to the RZD Arena. One key angle to consider is Lokomotiv's strong home advantage, particularly in cup competitions. Historically, they have performed well against Baltika, with three wins and four draws in their last ten encounters. Moreover, both teams have shown a tendency to score, with eight of those last ten meetings seeing both sides find the net. Given Lokomotiv's current form and home support, they will likely be confident in advancing, but Baltika will be eager to upset the odds and secure a vital cup victory.
