LiontipsTraktor - Metallurg Magnitogorsk: betting tip (cf 1.90) and bets on the KHL match
Command Analysis
Current form
Traktor continues to struggle to improve its position in the standings and is currently on the sixth line of the Eastern Conference. The team needs to win at least one victory in the remaining matches to ensure that it reaches the playoffs from sixth place, but even with favorable conditions, it can claim to be in the top five, but this requires two defeats by Salavat Yulaev. By the way, Chelyabinsk residents have often earned points lately.
They lost to Metallurg (2:3 B) and Neftekhimik (1:2 OT) on the road in an equal fight, and on their return to the home arena they defeated Torpedo (3:2 OT) and SKA (2:1). It can be seen that Evgeny Koreshkov's team has already adjusted to the playoffs and has begun to pay more attention to defense, due to which there are usually no more than one or two goals in his net. However, now the Chelyabinsk players themselves have begun to score significantly less than before, and even in the home arena they have not started to score as much.

Current form
Metallurg has already resolved all its issues in the regular season and is awaiting the playoff matches. The team won the Continental Cup and earned a total of 105 points. Of course, things haven't been going as smoothly for her in the last month as they used to, but she was still able to get out on a long streak of four wins. At the same time, Magnitogorsk residents got all the victories with great difficulty, and they achieved success either with a minimal difference in the score or outside of regular time.
So, they beat Traktor (3:2 B) on their own ice, and then defeated Salavat Yulaev (2:1 OT) and Siberia (2:1 OT) on the road. In the final home meeting with Avtomobilist, Andrey Razin's squad also scored two points, gaining the upper hand with a score of 4:3. However, Magnitogorsk went to the upcoming away series without most of the main squad players. The only players from the main roster will be goalkeeper Ilya Nabokov, defender Alexander Siryatsky, and forwards Egor Korobkin, Vladimir Tkachev, and Mikhail Fedorov.
Disqualifications and injuries
Only Dmitry Silantyev is on the injured list.
Interesting betting trends
- On average, a Metallurgist gets 7.67 minutes of penalty time.
- According to statistics, Magnitogorsk holds 10 power moves per match.
Trends
Bet 1st period: total more than 1.5 pucks
In four out of five matches between the clubs, the first period turned out to be productive.
Bet 2nd period: Chelyabinsk will score
In the last two meetings, Chelyabinsk scored in the second leg.
Tip and bets
Traktor is playing well at home this season and has motivation for the remaining matches, unlike Metallurg, who sent the second squad to the field. Even the last match between the clubs in Magnitogorsk, which took place quite recently, was a hard-fought match, although then the foxes played with the main squad. We think that now the Chelyabinsk team, with the support of their stands, will deal with the opponent with at least a two-goal difference.
Prediction - Tractor wins with Asian handicap (-1.5) on pucks in 1.90
Betting on an individual total
The tractor has missed very little lately and in many cases remained with less than two or three missed washers. Metallurg has already shown mediocre performance in previous meetings, and in this squad it will have very few chances at other people's gates. We think that the guests will not be able to score even twice this time.
We take Metallurg's individual total of less than two goals for 1.72
