Metallurg Magnitogorsk - Siberia. Betting Tip (cf 1.53) and bets on the KHL match

Current form

Metallurg fully proved its significant superiority over Siberia in the opening matches of the Gagarin Cup series. The team played at home, where, due to its incredible performance in attack, it left no chance for its opponent, defeating him with a score of 5:1 and 4:1, respectively. In particular, of course, it is worth praising the first-line forwards Kanzerov and Tkachev, who scored eight goals between the two in both meetings.

Next, the foxes went to play on the road, where in the very first meeting they again achieved the desired result, meeting almost no resistance from Novosibirsk and winning a landslide victory (3:1). This time, the defensive line excelled, allowing the opponent to make only 15 shots in three periods. It seemed that the fate of the snowflakes was already a foregone conclusion, but in the fourth match of the series, Razin's wards unexpectedly allowed the outsider to create a huge number of dangerous moments in their zone, which could lead to a complete failure. It was only due to the efforts of goalkeepers Smolin and Nabokov that they managed to put the game into overtime, but in the end they still had to suffer an insulting defeat (0:1).

Disqualifications and injuries

Only striker Silantyev remains in Metallurg's infirmary.

Interesting betting trends

• Metallurg scores an average of 3.7 goals per match.

Current form

Siberia, with great difficulty, got a ticket to the playoffs and in the very first series met with one of the contenders for the Gagarin Cup in the person of Metallurg. Novosibirsk players played on the road in the opening two matches, where they simply could not keep up with the opponent, allowing them to easily enter their zone and make constant shots, which eventually led to natural crushing defeats with the score 1:4 and 1:5, respectively.

Returning to the home arena, the Snowflakes tried to play more reliably defensively, but failed again with a three-goal difference (1:3). It seems that the club realized its mistake, as it completely changed its tactics in the fourth match of the series. From the very start of the meeting, Siberia played on opposite courses, almost forgetting about defense, but was unable to realize its potential in the main time. With the great efforts of goalkeeper Berdine, they managed to move the match into extra time, where Luzenkov's team achieved the desired result, snatching Victoria with a score of 1:0, and thus avoided relegation from the playoffs.

Disqualifications and injuries

Only Yakovlev and Shirokov will definitely not play in the upcoming match due to injuries.
