USA - Finland: betting tip (cf 1.77) and bets on the World Youth Championship match

Before the start of the tournament, the USA was considered one of the main contenders for victory. However, the group stage turned out to be by no means so simple for the national team, despite the three victories they achieved. Let's emphasize that the Americans confidently dealt with only Germany (6:3), but in meetings with Switzerland (2:1) and Slovakia (6:5) they succeeded in fighting with a minimal difference in the score. In the match with their direct competitor in Sweden, Bob Motsko's team lost 3-6, failing the second twenty minutes, during which they conceded four goals. That is why it can be assumed that in the upcoming meeting the team will act on a collision course and build on its strengths, namely actions in the attack zone.

Finland looks rather weak in terms of composition at this championship this year and probably did not have much chance of success at first. The Finns won only two outsiders in the group stage in Denmark (6:2) and Latvia (8:0), after which they lost to the Czech Republic (1:2 OT), and also lost to Canada (4:7) in the final confrontation. It should be noted that in the duel with the maple trees, Lauri Mikkola's squad was seriously let down by discipline, because she missed three times in the 4x5 format. It is also worth mentioning that in matches against serious opponents, as a rule, the Finns are not so active in someone else's zone and make few shots.
