Command Analysis
MHC Spartak
Russian FederationCurrent form
Spartak has not won the Kharlamov Cup since 2014. Alexander Barkov's team is now closer than ever to repeating its success. The Red and White had a great regular season, finishing in first place in the Western Conference Gold Division. In the matches, the capital's team dealt with Bobruisk Dynamo-Shinnik, St. Petersburg Dynamo and Chaika from Nizhny Novgorod. Ahead is the most dangerous opponent, with whom the team has been fighting for the leadership in the conference all season. As for the Spartak system, the youth team will compete with Khimik for the status of the most successful team in its vertical. However, if we recall that the KHL club finished the playoffs in the second round, reaching the MHL finals can be considered a great success. The squad has shown the best result in the last 11 years, and in the finals it can avenge the forty-sixth for losing a year ago in the quarterfinals.
Interesting betting trends
- The team has lost only twice in regular time in the last 10 games.
- In the last five playoff games, the club has conceded an average of 2.4 goals.
SKA-1946
Russian FederationCurrent form
SKA 1946 has very high expectations from the finals. Army men can take the championship double. Thus, they will become the most decorated team in the history of the MHL, along with Loko (Yaroslavl has three Kharlamov Cups). In addition to the 2023/2024 season, St. Petersburg won the trophy in 2022, when Matvey Michkov shone in the SKA youth team, but now he plays in Philadelphia. Will German Titov's team have any heroes who will lead the whole team? Let's recall that the squad beat the Red Army in the 1/8 finals, left no chance for Yaroslavl Loko in the quarterfinals, and emerged victorious in the semifinals against Omsk Hawks. No matter how the MHL finals ended, the forty-sixers showed the best result of their big system, as the adult team finished in the first round of the KHL playoffs, and SKA Neva stumbled in the VHL quarterfinals.
Interesting betting trends
- The club has conceded two goals on average in the last five playoff games.
- In the last 10 games SKA-1946 did not lose in regular time.
