In this confrontation, the hosts are the favorites and simply will not give the match to the opponent. Neftyanik is holding the meeting at its home arena and intends to continue what was started last season. The team from Almetyevsk plays stronger than the opponent, will use its ice and win the home game of the championship opening.

This pair is expected to play an open game with a large number of scoring opportunities. The opponents devoted a lot of time to attacking in the control matches and intend to arrange a goal extravaganza. It is worth noting that in four of Neftyanik's five previous matches, more than four goals were scored, and we believe that there will be many in this confrontation.
Betting Tip - total over 4.5 goals with odds of 1.70
Bet on individual total
Neftyanik has no problems in the attacking line, and it will most likely be easy to break through the Molot defense line. In the three past matches, the Almetyevsk team scored 11 goals, and we believe that they are capable of upsetting the opponent's goalie more than twice.
