Salavat Yulaev - Lada. Forecast and bets on the KHL match

Command Analysis

Current form
Salavat Yulaev played a three-game away series, which began with a tough victory over Sibir in a shootout (3:2). The Ufa team was unable to fully demonstrate its attacking potential and did not play the most active hockey, which led to problems. However, thanks to the efforts of the goalkeeper, they managed to earn points. The Greens were unable to consolidate their success; in the match with Dynamo Minsk, the club played even worse in attack, and made only 18 shots on goal and lost this time in a shootout (2:3). Kozlov team was able to rehabilitate themselves in front of the fans on the road against Torpedo, where they made a comeback in the third period and tied the score, and then won in overtime (3:2). It is worth noting that goalkeeper Samonov made a huge contribution to the success, reflecting 37 shots out of 39.
Now the team is back on the home arena, where they are performing much more confidently and have hardly lost this season, and in total Salavat has two defeats in ten matches. Thanks to such successful results at home, and their generally good form, the club is in fourth place in the Eastern Conference table, and the gap from the second position is only five points. The main distinguishing feature of the Ufa team is their very active attacking play, and on average they score three goals per match.
Disqualifications and injuries
In the infirmary of Salavat everything remains unchanged. Only forward Gleb Kuzmin will not be able to take part in the upcoming match.
Interesting trends for betting
- On average, Ufa players score three goals per match
Throughout the regular championship, the "greens" have been showing very effective attacking play, which is why they have achieved success.
- Salavat Yulaev averages 31 shots per game
The club high performance is primarily due to its very active attacking play, which allows it to make a large number of shots on goal.

Current form
Lada has recently gained excellent form, thanks to which they were able to successfully start the away series. In the first match, the team met with Neftekhimik and left no chances for their opponent, winning a dry victory (3:0). What is especially noteworthy is that the opponent made almost twice as many shots at the goal, but goalkeeper Pod'yapolsky coped with all of them, getting another "dry" in his career. Then the team went to visit Avangard, where, also thanks to the efforts of the goalkeeper, they were able to win their second victory in a row with a score of 3:1. This time, forward Josephs also distinguished himself, scoring a goal and also giving an assist.
The Togliatti team was able to consolidate their success in a match with a much more serious opponent, in the person of Moscow Dynamo, defeating the "white-blues" with a difference of one goal (3:2). Once again, the same players deserve praise: Pod'yapolkiy blocked 33 shots, and Josephs gave two assists. The winning streak, thanks to the efforts of the goalie, could not last long and was interrupted in a match with another clear favorite. The "Avtozavodtsy" were unable to stop the onslaught of CSKA, suffering a rout with a score of 1:4. The points scored helped Lada return to the playoff zone, but their position remains very shaky, since the advantage over the ninth line is only one point.
Disqualifications and injuries
Lada has some minor problems with its lineup, which only concern the attacking line. Forwards Andrey Altybarmakyan and Vladimir Chervonenko are in the infirmary.
Interesting trends for betting
- On average, Lada scores only 2.3 goals per match
Low offensive performance continues to prevent the team from consistently earning points.
- Togliatti residents realized only 12% of their power play attempts
Even when playing with a majority, the team rarely realizes its attacking potential.

1.68Tip and bets
Salavat Yulaev is the clear favorite in the upcoming match, for several reasons. Firstly, Ufa is significantly superior to Lada in terms of both its roster and its overall game, which has huge problems both creating and converting attacking moments. Secondly, Ufa is in top form, which they have proven with their away performances. We must not forget the fact that the Greens practically never lose at home, so Togliatti has little chance of winning. We suggest not taking risks and making a confident bet in favor of the home team.
Our prediction is Salavat Yulaev victory at 1.72
Bet on total
It is hard to believe that the upcoming match will be productive. As we have already noted many times, Lada shows low activity in attack and will again rely on its defensive line and the efforts of the goalkeepers. The Ufa team alone is unlikely to break the total of more than five goals.
Forecast - total under five goals for 1.84
Bet on the outcome of the first period
Due to their significant superiority over their opponents, as well as the advantage of home walls, Salavat Yulaev has every chance to create serious problems for Lada already at the start of the match and win in the first period.
Prediction - Salavat Yulaev wins in the first period in 2.15
