Command Analysis
Lokomotiv Kuban
Russian FederationCurrent form
The Kuban team has earned praise for its confident actions. In the first series of the playoffs, the team dealt with Uralmash without any problems in four matches. There was a dangerous opponent ahead, but Alexander Sekulich's team was ready to fight. Lokomotiv Kuban lost the first two matches, and it seemed like the season would end quickly, but character and motivation helped to even the score. First there was a confident 86:76 victory, then overtime with a lot of emotions and victory (96:88). The last match was held on the road, so it was not possible to get ahead, and now Lokomotiv is again faced with the task of winning back.

BC Zenit
Russian FederationCurrent form
The St. Petersburg club took the first place at the end of the championship, so the expectations from the playoffs were high. The first series ended quickly - PARMA couldn't do anything and lost three times. Javi Pascual's team did not stop there and showed class in the first two matches against Lokomotiv Kuban. It was noticeable that the guys felt relaxed, but the next two field meetings ended unsuccessfully. Zenit recovered in the last match (93:80), although there is another game ahead where the opponent can even the score. We are expecting an interesting outcome.

1.82Tip and bets
Lokomotiv Kuban is determined to fight, because it needs to be recouped. I am glad that the game will be played at home, where the team has already beaten the opponent twice and knows what to do, especially the key players in the ranks.
Zenit is counting on a successful performance, as it only needs one victory to reach the finals. On the other hand, fatigue is already making itself felt, and the next match needs to be played away, so the guests are unlikely to withstand the pressure and are likely to concede.
Our betting tip is a victory for Lokomotiv Kuban, taking into account overtime in 2.21
