Traktor - Siberia. Forecast and bets on the KHL match

Current form

Traktor has been showing excellent results for a long time, but still broke its winning streak of five games. The team returned to the home arena after an away series, where it should have continued to please fans with successful results, but this did not happen. The Chelyabinsk team fought Avtomobilist and could not take advantage of the opponent poor form, losing to them by one goal with a score of 4:5. This time, goalie Fukale showed his worst side, reflecting only 78% of the shots. The Bears tried their best to rehabilitate themselves for the weak play of the goalie due to the powerful attack line and at some point even earned an advantage, which they soon lost again.

Before this, Gruhl team also often had lapses in defense, which led to a large number of missed goals, but the team consistently compensated for this deficiency due to its effectiveness in attack, thanks to which it earned points throughout the regular season and is now in first place in the Eastern Conference standings, with a large gap from second place.

Disqualifications and injuries

It can be said that Traktor has no problems with its roster. Almost all players, with the exception of Danil Yurtaikin, are in the lineup.

Current form

Sibir still can't cope with its slump, losing to all opponents on its way, and the losing streak has already reached four games in a row. Remarkably, absolutely all the games ended in regulation time, and only Trakor managed to give a worthy fight, losing by just one goal (4:5). The club main problem remains an uncertain game in defense, which led to defeats in matches with Severstal (2:4) and St. Petersburg SKA (3:6). Both goalies, Kostin and Krasotkin, were unable to cope with a huge number of shots and insure the team. Remarkably, the "snowflakes" were unable to cope even with the main outsider of the league, Barys, losing to them with a score of 1:3.

It is worth noting that the team had a very successful start to the season, due to which it occupied a place at the top of its conference table for a long time, but now, due to a large number of lost points, it has dropped to seventh place.

Disqualifications and injuries

Sibir continues to play with almost its full fighting squad. Only defender Yegor Martynov is absent due to injury.

Interesting trends for betting

• On average, Sibir takes 26 shots per match

The Novosibirsk team cannot boast of a very active attacking game and mainly achieved success due to high-quality, but few shots.

• The Snowflakes converted 36% of their power play attempts

The team still remains the best in terms of using an extra player on the court
