Guy Boucher's squad has been making a strong impression so far. The hosts have claimed victory in seven out of nine games, with their rare slip-ups appearing entirely incidental.

Admiral Vladivostok Team Overview
The club from Vladivostok has long been known for capitalizing on its geographical location, primarily securing points on home turf. However, this season has seen some challenges in that regard. They have lost two of their last three home matches and then suffered a heavy defeat in Astana (0-3). So far, the visitors have scored only 18 goals, one of the poorest records in the East. Leonid Tambiev's squad has never been known for setting the league alight and typically fights for a seventh or eighth-place finish in the East, but even that seems increasingly challenging now.
