Command Analysis

Metallurg continues to lead the Eastern Conference table and has earned a total of 68 points. The team is not going to rest on its laurels and continues to show great results, producing long winning streaks. Earlier, the foxes managed to win four consecutive victories. On their own ice, they defeated Tractor (5:4 OT), after which they defeated Shanghai Dragons (7:3) on the road, and after a home victory over Lokomotiv (5:4 OT) they beat Avangard with a score of 2:1.
In the confrontation with the hawks, Alexander Smolin played well and confidently, who parried 24 shots. By the way, Andrey Razin's team missed the only goal in that match in the 4x5 format, but they performed perfectly in equal formations. It should be noted that Magnitogorsk has been doing great throughout the season, both in the majority and in the minority. By neutralizing the majority of the opponent, it remains the best in the league and currently has 85.7%, as well as 25.9% of excess sales.

Current form
SKA is currently in seventh position in the Western Conference and has 49 points to its credit. The team has moved itself away from relegation from the playoff zone by six points and at the same time has three matches left, so it can feel more comfortable than before. Overall, the St. Petersburg team has been showing pretty good results and has been without a series of defeats for two months. Apparently, Igor Larionov still managed to find a common language with the players and build a system that works.
The Army team recently defeated Dinamo Minsk (4:1) on the road, and after an unexpected defeat from Sochi (4:8), they dealt with the Shanghai Dragons (3:2) and beat Lada on their ice with a score of 5:4 in overtime. We emphasize that in many cases the club has demonstrated decent performance and opened up the opponents' defenses at least three or four times. As a rule, SKA conducts the second game segment most successfully, in which it has a 44:34 ratio of abandoned and missed goals.
Disqualifications and injuries
Trevor Murphy will not be able to participate in the upcoming bout due to injury.

Trends
Bet 1st period: total more than 1.5 pucks
In the last four matches with SKA, the first period turned out to be productive.
1.82Bet 2nd period: SKA will score
In four out of five matches against Magnitogorsk, SKA scored in the second period.
1.62Tip and bets
SKA should definitely not be underestimated in this confrontation. The Army team completed the last face-to-face match against SKA in their favor in regular time. Magnitogorsk players have usually had a hard time winning lately, and they won with a one-goal difference or beyond 60 minutes. The St. Petersburg team can cause trouble for the foxes if they play in their usual manner, since the hosts are not known for their reliable defensive play.
Prediction - SKA wins with Asian handicap (+1) on goals in 1.90
Bet on the total
Previous meetings with Metallurg turned out to be spectacular and usually took place with six or more goals scored. Magnitogorsk residents do not know how to play indoor hockey, especially with SKA-type opponents. The last match between the clubs, by the way, also went with seven goals. Based on this, it makes sense to take the total more.
We take a total of more than 5.5 goals for 1.85
