The start was a little more shaky for top team CSKA Moscow who were severely beaten on the road by Croatian league newcomers Medvescak Zagreb (1-7) during their KHL debut before they were able to beat Dinamo Minsk (2-1 OT) during their trip to Belarus to save the weekend at least a bit with 2 points.
A close game can be expected without any favourites.
