Command Analysis
Traktor
Russian FederationCurrent form
During the off-season, Traktor tried to keep the core of the team, but there were some changes. The team lost one of its best defenders in Albert Yarullin, but managed to get several great forwards, such as Andrei Svetlakov and Alexander Kadeikin.
So far, the Chelyabinsk team has played only two matches in the preseason and both of them were successful. In the first meeting, the «bears» easily beat «Chelmet» (4:1), and then also confidently dealt with «Avangard» (5:2) already within the framework of the Blinov Cup.

Lokomotiv Yaroslavl
Russian FederationCurrent form
Lokomotiv has remained virtually unchanged from last season. The team has only been replenished with two forwards, in the form of Alexander Radulov and Byron Frase, both of whom should seriously strengthen the club's attacking line.
In the framework of friendly matches, the «railwaymen» delight their fans. In the first match, they managed to crush «Kunlun» (4:1), and not with the first lineup. Then the «railwaymen» began to participate in the Blinov Cup, where they put out a much more serious lineup for the game with «Sibir», thanks to which they also easily won (2:0).

- Lokomotiv allowed an average of 2.04 goals per game last season, which is the best result in the league
- Lokomotiv averaged 34 shots on target per match
Estimated composition
Isaev, Froes, Radulov, Bereglazov, Gernat, Elesin, Kozhevnikov, Rafikov, Sergeev, Simashev, Cherepanov, Alekseev, Berezkin, But, Volkov, Ivanov, Kayumov, Kiryanov, Kraskovsky, Likhachev, Nikulin, Polunin, Radulov, Tesanov, Frez, Chekhovich, Shalunov

1.55Tip and bets
Traktor will have a tough time in the next match, because they will play one of the strongest clubs in the league. Chelyabinsk rarely achieves success in personal meetings with this team. Indeed, the «railwaymen» are one of the most inconvenient opponents for Traktor. Last year, out of six attempts, the team failed to win a single victory. It is noteworthy that the Yaroslavl team demonstrated amazing stability, they did not need time to play together. So we suggest betting on Lokomotiv.
Our betting tip is Lokomotiv victory in 2.12
Bet on total
It is still not worth expecting a large number of goals scored in the upcoming match. Lokomotiv continues to be one of the most reliable teams in the league, so it will definitely not allow Traktor to realize its potential in attack.
Betting Tip - total under 5.5 goals for 1.70
Bet on the total of the first period
Lokomotiv showed a very careful game in the match with Sibir and will most likely continue to play in the same spirit, which will have a negative impact on the results of the match, and especially the first period.
Betting Tip - 1st period total under 1.5 goals for 1.75
