Rimas Kurtinaitis:

— In the first circle we were defeated by Lokomotiv on the road. Now we are in a good playing rhythm, won couple of matches on the road and got confidence. Moreover we play at home and must score a victory. Lokomotiv also plays well despite the game with Lietuvos Rytas in VTB United League when they were beaten more than 20 points. There is a line of good players — Massey, Blakney, Traore. But we are ready for action, Monya got better, Kelati had a rest last game so we have to be fresh.
