Command Analysis
Torpedo
Russian FederationCurrent form
Torpedo has been showing mixed results in its pre-season training, primarily due to major changes in its lineup. After beating Moscow's Spartak, the Nizhny Novgorod team unexpectedly lost to Vityaz in overtime (2:3). Then Larionov's team was unable to beat the VHL club at all, losing to Norilsk with a score of 4:5, and they were playing with a far from second lineup.
In the return match with Norilsk, things improved, the defensive line looked much better, but the attack continued to create pressure on the underdog, thanks to which they managed to achieve revenge (5:2).

Vityaz
Russian FederationCurrent form
No one expected Vityaz to have any serious success during the pre-season, as the team has remained virtually unchanged since last year, meaning it is unlikely to be able to compete with the league leaders. Despite this, the «heroes» periodically show their teeth to their opponents, as evidenced by two victories over the clear favorites, in the person of Metallurg (6:4) and Torpedo (3:2). True, in the first case, the Magnitogorsk team did not play with its main lineup, and the «auto plants» simply did not have time to play their lines.
Overall, Podolsk's problems have not gone away, the team continues to experience serious problems in defense and is unable to rehabilitate itself through offensive performance.
Interesting trends for betting
- Vityaz concedes an average of five goals per match
- Last season, Vityaz scored only 1.96 goals per game
Estimated composition
Shikin, Dorozhko, Golovkov, Busygin, Valentsov, Malorosiyanov, Stewart, Voronkov, Vasiliev, Roy, Galuzin, Yarovoy, Zubov, Savchik, Gautier, Buchelnikov, Chivilev, Dar'in, Baptist, Vorobiev, Tsitsyura, Arkalov, Morozov, Detkov

1.56Tip and bets
Things are starting to improve for Torpedo, as demonstrated by the last match with Norilsk. In the upcoming match, the team will once again play with its main lineup, as it has a great desire to rehabilitate itself for the defeat by Vityaz. It is for this reason that the «heroes» have little chance of success, especially considering their main problem – a weak defensive line. So we suggest not taking risks, but betting on the clear favorite.
Betting Tip - victory for Torpedo in 1.63
Bet on total
As we have already noted, Vityaz is often unable to contain the opponent's pressure and constantly misses a large number of goals. The team simply has to play on opposite courses and try to compensate for its shortcomings, which leads to high-scoring matches.

Bet on the outcome of the first period
Due to its significant superiority over its opponent, Torpedo is obliged to start the match with active actions in attack, as well as with sufficient pressure on the opponent for an early advantage.
