This is Leonid Kuchuk's first season in charge after taking over from Slaven Bilić, who was sacked at the end of the previous season following Lokomotiv's worst ever performance in the Russian Premier League since the dissolution of the Soviet Union. Indeed, Lokomotiv's poor performance last season has left the club without European football this season and therefore the only cup that Lokomotiv participates in is the Russian Cup.
