MOSCOW — Dinamo Riga will face off against SKA St. Petersburg in a best of five quarterfinal series starting Wednesday.
After going up 3-0 against minor premiership champions Salavat Yulayev in their final regular season fixture on Sunday, Dinamo Riga were brought down to [private_supervisor]Earth when their hosts rallied back to take the game 6-4.
The loss, coupled by victory by CSKA, saw the Moscovites overtake Dinamo Riga to set up a more favorable quarterfinal series with HK-MVD. Dinamo Riga in the meantime will travel to St. Petersburg to face Western Conference champions SKA.
Last time the two teams met was an experience Dinamo Riga would rather forget, with their hosts handing them an 8-1 thrashing, a slight glitch in an otherwise strong start to 2010 for the Latvians. The second game will also take place in St. Petersburg on Thursday before Dinamo Riga return to Arena Riga for game three. Tickets, beginning at 7 lats are selling fast to the 17.00 match-up.
If needed game four will also take place at Arena Riga on Sunday, before the sides return to St. Petersburg on Tuesday for a fifth game, if so required. [/private_supervisor] [private_subscription 1 month]Earth when their hosts rallied back to take the game 6-4.
