Command Analysis

SKA-1946

Current form
The final series for the Kharlamov Cup moved to St. Petersburg with the score 0:2 not in favor of the forty-sixth. After losing the first final match (1-2), German Titov thoroughly shook up the composition of his players, but it did not bring results. In the first period, the Army team was the first to concede, but at the end of the half they still won back. In the second 20 minutes, the club from the banks of the Neva conceded two unanswered goals and lost 1-3 in the score before the start of the final segment. The game was pretty neat until the middle of the meeting, and then the deletions began. At the start of the third period, three Spartak players went to the penalty box one after another. None of these deletions were implemented, but after the squads aligned, the St. Petersburg team reduced the gap. Even playing with six players, the squad couldn't score, but they missed an empty goal twice. The result is 3:5 and two home games, which will be difficult for the team.

- The club has suffered four defeats in the last six playoff games.
- In the last 10 games of SKA 1946, he scored an average of 2.8 goals.

MHC Spartak

Current form
The Red and white defeated their opponent in the Kharlamov Cup final again and went to St. Petersburg with a two-game advantage. Spartak was in the lead during almost the entire second confrontation and eventually brought the match to Victoria. Alexander Barkov's team opened the scoring in the fourth minute, but the visitors equalized at the end of the half. The beginning of the second period was a goal for the Muscovites, who scored twice by the 26th minute. After that, the army took a timeout and began the siege of the gates of the capital's team. At the beginning of the third half, the St. Petersburg team reduced the gap. Then the owners of the ice moved away a lot, and after another violation, the forty–sixers risked replacing the goalkeeper with a fielder, but the attempt was unsuccessful - Spartak scored into an empty net in the minority. With the score 2:4, the opponent took off the goalkeeper again and reduced the gap to a minimum. At the last minute, the club from Moscow scored into an empty wicket again and won 5-3 in the end. The series is 2-0 and has two away games.
