Five games on schedule as teams still find themselves in the new season!

Metallurg welcomes a weary and beaten down Admiral club, which concludes an unsuccessful road trip while Severstal hosts a Traktor club that has a good handful of players on some very attractive scoring streaks.

Dinamo Minsk has gotten hot of late, but now hosts an Avtomobilist team that has had the upper hand in recent meet-ups in Minsk. Two teams in need of a victory are Vityaz and Ak Bars, and one of them will be ending the day with a victory. Ak Bars is surely a wee bit more desperate.

Lastly, a hot CSKA team host Lokomotiv, which is coming off an emotional September 7^th event. Will the capital city boys get their 4^th win in a row?
