Command Analysis
Current form
"Traktor" has shown amazing results this season, thanks to which the team confidently occupies a leading position in the Eastern Conference table with an advantage over its closest competitor of eight points. The main distinguishing feature of the club remains its very active, and most importantly, effective game in attack, on average, it scores more than three goals per match. Also, one cannot help but praise the defense of the "bears", which together allows them to beat any opponents on their way.
The Chelyabinsk team winning streak has already reached five matches, and almost all of them ended in regulation time. Minor difficulties arose only away to Lada, where the Togliatti team goalkeeper showed an excellent game, which almost led to a defeat. However, a huge number of shots bore fruit, and Traktor was able to equalize the score in the last minute of the match, and then snatched victory in overtime with a score of 2:1. Before this, the team also played away, where they beat Avangard (4:3) and Sibir (5:4) with an advantage of one goal.

Current form
Avtomobilist continues to perform with varying success, alternating victories with defeats. However, it is worth paying attention to the fact that the team consistently copes only with far from the most serious clubs in the league, and in matches with more powerful competitors it gets lost and suffers defeats. The team played an away series, in which after a rout from St. Petersburg SKA (2:5), they met with Vityaz and won a confident victory with a score of 3:1. They managed to achieve success due to the excellent play of goalkeeper Galkin, who reflected 96% of the shots. Returning to the home arena, the team fought with Moscow Dynamo and expectedly suffered a defeat (1:2). Once again, Avto had serious problems with the implementation of moments in attack, which has been happening throughout the season.
Then Zavarukhin charges went away again, where they still snatched victory in regulation time against Neftekhimik with an advantage of only one goal (3:2). This time, goalkeeper Alikin distinguished himself with an excellent game, thanks to which it was possible to avoid additional problems. In general, Avtomobilist is in optimal condition. Thanks to successful victories over outsiders, it maintains the second position in the Eastern Conference standings, having 24 points.

2.15Tip and bets
Traktor had a hard time earning points on the road, but now the team is back at home, where with the support of the fans it is showing itself in all its glory and should easily deal with Avtomobilist. As we have already noted, the Yekaterinburg team has serious problems in matches with the league leaders, which means that we should definitely not expect success from them in the upcoming match. The teams have already met this season, and Avto was able to win at home. The Chelyabinsk team has a great desire to take revenge and will make every effort to do so, so we suggest betting in their favor.
Our prediction is a Traktor victory at 1.89
Bet on total
There is no point in expecting a large number of goals scored in the upcoming match.

Due to its superiority over its opponent, as well as the advantage of home walls, Traktor will play first, creating pressure on the opponent from the first minutes of the match, which will ultimately allow the Chelyabinsk team to earn an advantage already at the end of the starting segment.
