📊 Lokomotiv Climb the Table
With this fourth win in five games, Lokomotiv:
Strengthens its position among the top four in the Russian Premier League.
Stays in the chasing pack behind leaders Zenit Saint Petersburg.
Temporarily sits above some of their more illustrious city rivals.
🏟️ Another Derby Ahead
The Moscow derbies continue:
CSKA Moscow, runners-up last season and fresh from a stunning 2-1 Champions League win over Manchester City, are next on the radar.
Dinamo Moscow, led by Frenchman Mathieu Valbuena, also remain contenders, having qualified for the Europa League Round of 16.
Lokomotiv’s recent form, fueled by N’Doye’s goals, keeps their title hopes alive—but tougher tests await in a crowded Moscow football landscape.
