The game starts at 17:30 CET, so be with us to follow the big season opener!
Dynamo will try to defend the Opening Cup title from last year, while Traktor is looking for consolidation after losing the Gagarin Cup.
Let's remember last season:
Dynamo beat Slovan in conference quarterfinals, went on to beat CSKA 4-1 in the semifinals, and then in the conference finals met their sworn enemies SKA. They almost repeated the sweep from the season before, but went through to the Finals with 4-2.
Traktor commenced their title challenge with a hard-fought vitory over Barys Astana 4-3, then smashed Avangard 4-1 and went to the Finals with 4-3 victory over Ak Bars Kazan.
