Current form
Neftekhimik has been on the fifth line in the conference for a long time and could well compete for the fourth place in the East. Currently, Igor Grishin's team has 57 scoring points after 51 matches and is five points behind Avtomobilist. Nizhnekamsk residents needed a little time to recover at the start of the new calendar year, but now they are in excellent shape. The Wolves won seven games in a row, but lost to Ak Bars (1-6) at the start of the new guest tour.
The meeting in Kazan did not work out for the guests from the very first minutes. They started to move away and by the tenth minute they had missed three times. In the second 20 minutes, the Leopards once again realized the majority, but even before the break, Matvey Zaseda was able to score one goal. In the final third of the confrontation, the Petrochemist was once again punished for poor discipline and was defeated on the ice of the Tatneft Arena.
Andrey Belozerov remains the top scorer among the guests. The forward has scored 41 goals (24+17) this season.

1.35Tip and bets
Salavat Yulaev demonstrates excellent results at this stage of the season and regularly scores points. Viktor Kozlov's team does well offensively, but they play even better near their own goal. The petrochemical industry should already start to decline after a strong stretch during January. The match is very important for both sides, but we are leaning towards the victory of the hosts.
Prediction - Salavat Yulaev's victory in the match at 1.70
Betting on an individual total
Salavat Yulaev has been playing great defense lately and rarely concedes more than twice per match. Neftekhimik is very difficult to call an attacking club, and basically Igor Grishin's team wins thanks to a reliable defensive game. We think that the meeting will be quite closed and sticky, and the guests will not be able to distinguish themselves more than twice.
We bet on the individual total of Petrochemicals less than 2.5 washers for 1.70
