Traktor - Lokomotiv: betting tip for the KHL match

Current form

Traktor did not start his playoff performance very confidently and had difficulties in the series with Admiral, but during the tournament he gained incredible form, which allowed him to easily cope with any competitors on his way. Chelyabinsk left no chance for Dinamo Minsk, and after that they confidently beat Moscow, suffering only one defeat in each series. In particular, it is worth noting the amazing performance of the team in attack. In absolutely every meeting, the bears created a huge number of dangerous moments in the opponent's zone from the very first minutes and achieved the desired result precisely due to this.

The start of the finals was also successful for the team. Grool's team played on the road, where they wrested Victoria from Lokomotiv in regular time (2:1). In the final period, the opponent seriously increased the pace, but Chelyabinsk was much more lucky with the realization of the moments. Goalkeeper Fucale also made a huge contribution, reflecting 97% of shots. However, it was not possible to consolidate the result. In the return leg, Traktor opened the scoring, but allowed the opponent to create too many dangerous chances at his own goal, which eventually led to a defeat (1:4).

Current form

Last year, Lokomotiv already reached the Gagarin Cup final and this season also acted as a contender to win the main tournament. So far, the expectations of the club's fans have been fulfilled. Yaroslavl met serious resistance only in the quarterfinal series with Avangard, when they were on the verge of relegation, but still with great difficulty they got a decisive victory in overtime. Strangely enough, the semi-final was quite calm for the club. After losing in the opening match against Ufa, Loko won four victories in regular time, thereby proving that he fully deserves to compete in the finals again.

The final began for the railwaymen at their home arena, but the home walls did not help them in the opening match. Lokomotiv was in no way inferior to its competitor, but the puck stubbornly did not fly to the target, which led to an insulting defeat (1:2). But in the return match, Yaroslavl showed themselves in all their glory, defeating Chelyabinsk with a score of 4.:1. The whole team showed an incredible game, and in particular it is worth noting the attacking line. In three periods, we managed to land as many as 47 shots at the Tractor's goal.

Disqualifications and injuries

Semyon Nikulin is still in doubt.
