Metallurg Magnitogorsk - Siberia. Betting Tip (cf 1.81) and bets on the KHL match

Current form

Metallurg was able to take the lead in the Eastern Conference table from the very start of the season and throughout the season only confirmed its status due to its incredibly effective offensive play. On average, the club scored as many as 3.7 goals per match, which was the best result in the league. Yes, at the end of the regular season, the team slowed down a little, but only in order to regain strength before the playoffs.

In the opening series of the Gagarin Cup, Magnitogorsk faced a clear outsider in Siberia and proved their significant superiority over their opponent in the very first match. The Foxes showed from the very beginning who was in charge on the court, creating powerful pressure on the opponent and not allowing him to easily enter his zone, opening the scoring in the third minute, and in the middle of the period they consolidated their success thanks to an abandoned puck from one of the leaders of Metallurg in the person of striker Tkachev. During the meeting, Razin's team did not give their opponent a break, and in the end they won a crushing victory with a score of 4:1. Once again, the forwards Kanzerov and Tkachev turned out to be the most productive players.

Current form

For Siberia, this regular season turned out to be the most difficult in all respects. Due to unsatisfactory results, the team had to change the coach twice, but as a result, the club still got back on track and began to steadily earn points. Mainly due to the unexpected restructuring at Admiral, Novosibirsk managed to rise to the eighth place in the Eastern Conference table and get a ticket to the Gagarin Cup.

However, it was not possible to start the playoffs with a victory, as expected. Yes, there were few chances of success against one of the league leaders, but it seemed that Novosibirsk would at least be able to give a decent rebuff to Metallurg, which did not happen. The snowflakes were clearly not ready for such a powerful pressure from the opponent and made a lot of defensive mistakes because of it. Rare counterattacks did not lead to the desired results, so everything could have ended in a dry defeat. Just a minute before the final whistle, Siberia finally took advantage of its moment and scored the only goal, eventually losing with a score of 1:4. In addition, it is worth noting that the main leader of the club, Taylor Back, was injured during the meeting, which also affected the overall result.

Disqualifications and injuries

Only Fedotov and Shirokov will definitely not play in the upcoming match due to injuries. Taylor Beck is still in doubt.
