The best proof of how much more even is the league this year is Avtomobilist which fell from top to almost last place in a month!
Used to be unthinkable scenario.
In meantime, Dinamo Moscow is on a mission vs eastern teams.
Last 7 games, 7 wins ( Avtomobilist, Metalurg, Red Star, Amur, Admiral, Avangard and Salavat Julajev)!
The only game lost from 12.10. is a Moscow derby vs CSKA.
