Command Analysis
Avtomobilist Yekaterinburg
Russian FederationCurrent form
Avtomobilist is returning home after a 3-5 defeat to Salavat Yulaev in Ufa. Nikolai Zavarukhin's charges played matches on their home ice with varying success in early September. The Urals team took points in games against Traktor (3-2) and Sibir (4-0), after which they showed a weak attack and lost to Torpedo (1-3). In the last two games, the Yekaterinburg team did not play their best defense and conceded eight goals in total.
Despite the excellent realization of moments (11.7%), "Auto" very rarely threatens the opponents' goal. The Machinists make an average of 23 shots per game, while the opponents block 18 attempts. Nevertheless, Anatoly Golyshev's team still has a positive difference between goals scored and conceded - 11:10.
Interesting trends for betting
- The Urals' opponents make 35 shots on average
It’s not surprising that Avto started to concede more goals, because the team’s goalkeepers have a lot of work to do in every game.
- Avtomobilist is sent off more than four times per match
The Yekaterinburg players often get sent off and give their opponents many chances.
Injuries and disqualifications
Evgeny Kashnikov and Semyon Kizimov are injured.
Salavat Yulaev Ufa
Russian FederationCurrent form
Salavat Yulaev has not lost yet this season and if they win in Yekaterinburg, they will become the sole leader of the Eastern Conference in terms of percentage of points scored. The Ufa team beat Ak Bars (5:3) and Avtomobilist (5:3) in shootouts and with great difficulty finished off Traktor (2:1, B) in a shootout. The new legionnaires fit in well with Viktor Kozlov's game plan. Sheldon Rempal and Nathan Todd earned four points (1+3) in three games.
Let's note the goalie line of the club from Bashkortostan. Aleksandr Samonov and Semyon Vyazovoy miss only 7.1% of shots per game, although on average 32 shots are made on the goal of the "greens". At the same time, the guests themselves score 15.4%, making only 26 attempts to upset the opponents' goalkeepers.
Interesting trends for betting
- Salavat Yulaev makes 17 power moves per game and allows 15
Ufa forces its opponents to play their game; matches involving the Yulaevites are rich in physical combat.
- Grigory Panin's team won 46% of faceoffs in the new season
So far, Ufa's centers have not been able to show a decent result at the face-off spot.

1.40Tip and bets
Salavat Yulaev has gained excellent form by the start of the regular season and is making great use of its chances. The Yulaevites are especially strong on home ice, but Viktor Kozlov's team has a good history of matches in Yekaterinburg as well. Since 2020, the Ufa team has only lost once in regulation time on the ice of the Uralets Arena , and now there is an excellent opportunity to extend this streak. Avtomobilist started the season well at home, but failed in the last two games. We believe that the club from Bashkortostan will be able to earn another two points and become the leader of the East.
Our prediction is a victory for Salavat Yulaev with a handicap of 0 for 1.94
Bet on total
Salavat Yulaev plays attacking hockey and has scored five goals against its opponents twice in three games. Avtomobilist also has good scoring ability, while allowing a lot of shots into its possessions. Both teams have been penalized a lot at the start of the regular season, so we don't think they can't score just five goals between them.
Betting Tip - total goals 4.5 more pucks for 1.70
Bet on the total of the first period
The Greens, even in a low-scoring game against Traktor , managed to exchange goals in the first period and generally start their matches very actively. The same can be said about Avtomobilist , in four matches with whose participation only once the total of 1.5 over was not broken in the first 20 minutes.
Betting Tip - total goals 1.5 more pucks in the first period for 2.05
