The 2014–15 FC Lokomotiv Moscow season was the club's 23rd season in the Russian Premier League, the highest tier of association football in Russia. Lokomotiv Moscow also takes part in the Russian Cup and the Europa League.
Season review On 17 September 2014, Leonid Kuchuk resigned from the manager post after deterioration of his relationships with players. The next day Igor Cherevchenko was appointed as the club's caretaker manager. On 4 October 2014, Miodrag Božović was appointed as a new caretaker manager until conditions of Kuchuk's deal termination are worked out. On 10 October 2014, Božović signed a permanent deal as a manager, but resigned on 11 May 2015 with Igor Cherevchenko again taking control of Lokomotiv as caretaker manager. Despite poor performances in the league, Lokomotiv won the Russian Cup, overtaking Kuban Krasnodar 3–1 after extra time and booking place in next season's Europa League.
