Valery Bragin: "It will be a tough match for both teams"

- Are you satisfied with the first away series of the 2020/2021 KHL regular season?

- The start of any competition is always difficult. We are pleased with the amount of points we have, but we have to improve our overall performance so that we play well during the entire 60 minutes.

- What did you do between the matches against Torpedo and Lokomotiv?

- We only had two days of rest. We trained yesterday and this morning.

- Did you focus on any single component ahead of the game today?

- We always analyse the strengths and weaknesses of our opponents before any match.

- SKA played against Lokomotiv in four successive matches in August.

- In comparison to August, the teams have now decided on their rosters. However, both of us know how each other play, so it will be a tough game for the clubs.

- What do you expect from Lokomotiv?

- We are expecting a battle. Lokomotiv have a fast, young team. We have to be careful and, most importantly, compete in the correct manner.
