LiontipsSalavat Yulaev - Neftekhimik: betting tip (cf. 1.70) and bets on the KHL match
Command Analysis
Salavat gave Ak Bars the victory himself in the last round. After two periods, Ufa led 3-0, but in the third they conceded three times, and then another goal in overtime - 3:4. It was especially unpleasant that Kazan scored the last two goals at the end of the meeting.
At the same time, Viktor Kozlov's team has almost no problems ahead. Salavat scored at least three goals in all four matches of the season. Matthew Maggio also made his debut, so there are even more attacking options. But it's not possible to play all 60 minutes equally reliably yet.
Neftekhimik is now generally one of the most stable clubs in the East. After the opening defeat by the Shanghai Dragons, Nizhnekamsk won four meetings in a row. In the last round, the team came to Novosibirsk and calmly dealt with Siberia - 3-0.
Ice hockey without a puck has changed especially noticeably. In four winning matches, Neftekhimik missed only three times. Philip Dolganov played well in Novosibirsk, and the team itself waited for the opponent's mistakes again and calmly took the result.

Tip and bets
It's pretty hard to choose a side here. Neftekhimik is in great shape, and the victories now come primarily due to a very careful defensive game. Nizhnekamsk residents do not go ahead unnecessarily and calmly wait for their moment. Salavat attacks more brightly, but after 3-4 from Ak Bars, he will probably draw conclusions too and try to take less risks. Plus, face-to-face matches of these teams quite often turn out to be viscous. In such a situation, we don't expect a constant firefight. Rather, the opponents will stay close in the score for a long time, and most of the game will be played cautiously.
Our betting tip is a total of less than 5.5 goals in 1.70
