Siberia - Neftekhimik: betting tip (cf. 1.65) and bets on the KHL match


Command Analysis

The victory over Metallurg with a score of 5:2 turned out to be especially pleasant for Novosibirsk, as the team recently lost heavily to Magnitogorsk on the road. This time, the hosts managed to completely change the nature of the confrontation. In the first period, Siberia made 21 shots on target against the opponent's four, and Pavel Tyutnev opened the scoring. After the break, the guests regained equality, but Sergey Popov brought Novosibirsk forward again. Then Alexander Mirzabalaev scored a double, allowing the hosts to create a comfortable advantage. In the final twenty minutes, Metallurg reduced the gap, but Anton Kosolapov hit an empty gate and set the final result.
It is especially interesting that in the previous meeting, 17-year-old Ivan Ryabov made his debut, who received several shifts against the conference leader. At the same time, Yaroslav Liuzenkov's team managed to achieve success despite personnel difficulties. Earlier, Siberia lost to Tractor (1:2), Metallurg (1:5) and SKA (3:6), so the last victory was an important step towards restoring confidence. Popov and Tyutnev continue to play a significant role in the attack, and Mirzabalaev probably received an additional charge of positive emotions after the double. However, the defense remains unstable, as the team has conceded 15 goals in the last four matches. Now it is important to maintain attacking activity without repeating previous mistakes near your own goal.

The last defeat from the Admiral with a score of 3 turned out to be especially offensive for Nizhnekamsk:4. Already in the first period, the hosts lost 0:2, and one of the goals was conceded in the minority of the opponent. However, then Igor Grishin's team managed to rectify the situation. Rafael Bikmullin realized the majority, and German Tolichkin restored equality after a quick attack. Later, the guests took the lead again, but Matvey Nadvorny scored 3.:3. It seemed that the meeting would go into overtime, but nine seconds before the siren Vladislav Tsitsyura realized the majority and brought victory to the Vladivostok team.
For Neftekhimik, the defeat was the second in a row, as the team had previously lost to Metallurg in overtime (2:3). Prior to that, Nizhnekamsk successfully opposed Avangard (3:2) and Lokomotiv (1:0), showing a fairly reliable game near their own goal. Damir Zhafyarov's injury in the previous match was particularly unpleasant news. According to the head coach, the striker may miss about a week and a half, which will limit the possibilities of one of the leading links. At the same time, Andrei Belozerov continues to be an important performer, and Bikmullin and Tolichkin are capable of creating dangerous moments. However, the defense has become less reliable in the last two meetings, allowing the opponents to score seven goals.
Tip and bets
The latest victory should significantly improve the mood of Siberia, but it's too early to talk about the full recovery of the team. Novosibirsk residents too often make mistakes when defending their own goal, and a successful meeting with Metallurg was more a confirmation of the possibilities of attack. Petrochemist has also recently had difficulty defending himself, especially against the Admiral. At the same time, Nizhnekamsk are able to quickly create chances after intercepting the puck, which can become a serious problem for the hosts.
It is unlikely that the opponents will immediately take risks, since both teams need to stabilize their results. However, as the meeting progresses, the situation may well change. Siberia, after five goals against the leader, will certainly try to be active again in front, and the guests will rely on their own capabilities with quick attacks. Given the current defensive problems, we expect a fairly productive match and at least five goals in regular time.
