Salavat Yulaev Is A Motorist. Betting Tip (cf 1.90) and bets on the KHL match

Current form

After a not entirely successful start to the season, the Ufa team painstakingly gradually won back the lost ground and eventually secured the fifth place in the cup eight of the East. The series of one-eighth with the Motorist was expected to be stubborn, since the rivals are high–class teams, approximately equal in strength, and this is how it really turns out. Having lost at the beginning of the series in Yekaterinburg, Ufa took the upper hand in the second game (1-0) and deprived the opponent of the advantage of their home ice.

Salavat started the third match (and the first in Ufa) on March 27 with a missed goal, then lost (2:1), but eventually pulled out the game and won a strong-willed victory (4:3). At the end of the meeting, the fate of the match was decided by an incredible goal scored by the forward of the fourth Yulaev team, Maxim Kuznetsov, with a throw from a negative angle. The high level of play in the playoff matches is demonstrated by goalkeeper Semyon Vyazovoy, legionnaires Sheldon Rempal and Devin Brosseau, as well as the three forwards Egor Suchkov – Danil Alalykin – Alexander Zharovsky.

Current form

At the finish of the regular tournament, Avtomobilist looked like a team that could handle the most ambitious tasks. Yekaterinburg's assets include wins in February and March against Metallurg (8:1 and 3:1), Avangard (5:1), Lokomotiv (4:1) and a confident place in the top 4 of the East.

By taking the opening game of the series with Salavat at home with a score of 2:0, the Uralians strengthened the confidence in the hearts of the fans in the successful outcome of the confrontation. Ufa, however, unveiled their own plans for the quarterfinals, winning two matches in a row and advancing to four wins 2-1. There is still a lot of fighting ahead, and much will depend on the skill and physical fitness of the team leaders. Avtomobilist has the following players: the goalkeeper team of Evgeny Alikin – Vladimir Galkin has one of the best indicators in the league in terms of impenetrability, the legionnaires-scorers Stefan da Costa and Brooks Meisek are effective, and sniper Reed Boucher, who did not play the season, was triumphantly replaced by goal man Daniel Sprong, who has already scored two doubles in three matches of the series with Ufa and scored four of the team's five goals in the series.
