Rimas Kurtinaitis, BC Khimki head coach:

— Our opponent has changed head coach recently and the team got a new impetus as they won two Eurocup games in a row so far. Also the playing style and several combinations were changed. So right now Lukoil Academic has chances to qualify for the next round and they undoubtedly want to beat us. We are seriously preparing for this game as usual and do not give favors to anyone. For sure, we are focused only on winning this game.
