Our team’s meeting with Krasnye Krylia in VTB League still promises intrigue – tournament- and game-wise.

“Krasnye Krylia is now absolutely different team from the one we faced in Samara.” CSKA head coach Ettore Messina said. “They overcame some major roster changes but they still contain the same attitude and play well-organized basketball. We are experiencing injury problems so we will decide on our roster at the very last moment. That adds to our difficulties and proper preparation to the game will have great importance again.”

Victor Khryapa continues to rehab individually. Aaron Jackson bruised his foot muscles and Milos Teodosic sprained his finger in the game vs Lokomotiv.

Only 3 wins by CSKA with 3 losses by Khimki can let the Army Men finish on the first place in the regular championship. Still our team secured second position in a group. Krylia continue to fight for playoff spot and better position to take the home court advantage on 1/8 final stage.
