Lokomotiv: slipping into the relegation play-off zone
Lokomotiv are going through a prolonged run of poor results, managing just one win from their last ten matches, with six defeats and three draws. During that run they have averaged just 0.7 goals per game while conceding exactly one, which points to a lack of attacking ideas alongside a degree of defensive resilience despite the unfavourable outcomes. Their short-term form tells a similar story: from their last five matches they have won once, lost three times and drawn once, underlining an inability to consistently create and convert chances.
