CSKA Moscow: Team News

The Moscow squad is fit enough and capable to repeat what had been made in Leverkusen three weeks ago. Only one player is officially out of the team, this is Latvian Aleksandrs Cauna who has been having an ankle injury for a long time and never had a chance to play in this season so far. One point is in the pocket yet, and there still remains a good call to challenge for qualifying for the final part of the tournament.
