In the opening game of the regular season, the army team dismantled UNICS. The Kazan squad is stronger than Uralmash, making it unlikely that the next opponent for the Moscow team will perform any better. Last season, the Ekaterinburg team put up no fight against the capital club, and we doubt they will change that now.
Our prediction is CSKA with a handicap of (-17.5) points at 1.73
