LiontipsSalavat Yulaev - Admiral. Forecast and bets on the KHL match
Command Analysis
Current form
Salavat Yulaev did not finish a long away series of five games in the best way. The team played away to the current leader of the Eastern Conference, Traktor, where they were unable to contain the powerful attacking line of the opponent, allowing them to make 41 shots on goal, which ultimately led to a 2:4 defeat. Goalkeeper Vyazovoy looked very confident, but he was unable to save from so many dangerous moments near his goal.
The "greens" were able to rehabilitate themselves before the fans already at home, where they met with "Sochi" and snatched victory in a shootout (3:2). It seemed that in a duel with an obvious outsider, the Ufa team would be able to perform much more confidently and beat the Sochi team without any problems, but this time the implementation of attacking moments, of which there were plenty, let them down. "Salavat" showed its attacking potential to the fullest in the match with "Torpedo", taking full advantage of the opponent failures in defense and winning in regular time with a score of 5:4. Forwards Rempal and Todd showed a great game, scoring six points between them. Thanks to successful performances at home, the team continues to be in the playoff zone, rising to sixth place in the Eastern Conference table.

There are no changes in the infirmary of Salavat Yulaev. Forward Gleb Kuzmin and defender Yaroslav Tsulygin will definitely not play in the upcoming match.

Current form
It can be said that Admiral has been showing decent hockey exclusively at home this season, and the team has won only two out of ten possible away games. What is especially noteworthy is that almost all of the defeats were crushing. The Sailors have changed their tactics since last year and are now betting on the attacking line, rather than sitting back in defense, as they did before. However, this has brought dubious results so far, as the club currently occupies eighth place in the Eastern Conference standings, with 19 points.
The Vladivostok team recently completed a home series, where they once again pleased fans with successful results. The team defeated Lada (5:3), and also snatched a victory from the clear favorite Spartak (4:3 OT). In particular, it is worth praising forward Gutik, who scored three points in both games. Then Admiral went to play away again, where, as expected, they showed their worst side. The team played Ak Bars twice and never came close to success, suffering defeats with a score of 0:2 and 2:4, respectively.
Disqualifications and injuries
Of the serious losses, Admiral still has injured forward Stepan Starkov, who started the regular championship quite confidently and was able to score nine points in 11 matches.
Interesting trends for betting
- On average, the "sailors" allow 3.3 goals per match
Admiral defense is no longer considered one of the most reliable in the league; on the contrary, the club is among the main outsiders in terms of goals conceded.
- On average, Admiral takes 34 shots per match
As we have already noted, the Vladivostok team places emphasis on active attacking play.

2.12Tip and bets
It is very hard to believe that Admiral will be able to put up a decent fight against Salavat Yulaev in the upcoming match. As we have already noted, the “sailors” show a terrible game on the road and very rarely cling to points, achieving the desired results exclusively at home. In this match, the Vladivostok team will play on the road, which means that the Ufa team has received an excellent opportunity to extend their winning streak to three matches in a row. In general, the “greens” are in optimal shape, will not miss this chance and will easily cope with their opponent.
Our prediction is Salavat Yulaev victory at 1.72

Forecast - total over five goals for 1.76
