Almaz

Current form
Almaz is not showing a very confident game this season and cannot break into the top five teams in its division. Compared to the last championship, the team is completely unpredictable. Most likely, the club from Cherepovets will not achieve the same excellent results as in the past championship, when it made it to the quarterfinals of the Kharlamov Cup, but lost to Loko. In the last match, Konstantin Kasatkin team won another victory this season and turned out to be stronger than their opponent from Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk.
