Recent encounters between these opponents have been high-scoring, but this time things could change. The fact is that at the start of the regular season, Yenisei struggled offensively. In their first game, they only managed to score 65 points. Given this, we doubt that the upcoming match will see a high total.
Our prediction is a total of under 159.5 points at 1.77

Even in Krasnoyarsk, CSKA must secure a decisive victory. Yenisei recently suffered a heavy loss to Lokomotiv-Kuban, so the dynamics should shift in favor of the capital team.
