Salavat Yulaev Ufa
Russian FederationCurrent form
Salavat Yulaev approached the new season in excellent shape, which was already noticeable in pre-season friendly matches, in which the team consistently achieved success. The Ufa team suffered only two defeats in seven matches, losing to Severstal (0:1) and Metallurg (2:3). This result is justified by the fact that the club was able to retain its core and only strengthened itself as much as possible during the off-season, signing a large number of North American players who are already showing their worth.
Salavat Yulaev played its opening match of the regular championship at home, playing a "green derby" with Ak Bars. Such matches are distinguished by a principled struggle, and this one was no exception. Despite fierce resistance from the Kazan team, the Ufa team still managed to win a confident victory with a score of 5:3. It is difficult to even single out any of the players, since many distinguished themselves with effective actions. The team consistently took advantage of the opponent's mistakes, realizing every chance, which allowed them to gain the upper hand over such a serious competitor.

Traktor
Russian FederationCurrent form
During the pre-season training, Traktor consistently pleased fans with successful performances and beat almost all players on its way. Indeed, the Bears also approached the new season in excellent shape, which they showed in the opening match with Avtomobilist. The Chelyabinsk team looked head and shoulders above their competitor, as evidenced by the number of shots: 48 against 16. But that day, the team was very unlucky in converting their chances, which led to an unexpected defeat with a score of 2:3.
Next, Benoit Groux's charges played against a less serious competitor in the person of Barys and this time achieved the expected success, defeating the opponent with a score of 4:1. This time the defense was not so reliable, but goalkeeper Fukale was able to correct all the mistakes. But the attacking line again played great, consistently creating serious pressure on the Kazakhs, which in total brought two points.
Interesting trends for betting
- Traktor makes at least 31 shots on target per match
Traktor is one of the most active teams in the league and consistently creates a huge number of dangerous moments at the opponents' goal.
- Last season, Chelyabinsk residents realized only 18% of the majority
But when playing with the majority, Traktor often has problems with implementation, which is why it is not so dangerous to be penalized against the Chelyabinsk team, compared to other opponents.
Estimated composition
Fucale, Mylnikov, Dronov, Nikolaev, Kämpfer, Blazhievsky, Ibragimov, Karpukhin, Sikura, Sharov, Rykmanov, Shabanov, Kotlyarevsky, Tkachev, Kravtsov, Shvarev, Kadeikin, Der-Arguchintsev, Svetlakov, Tertyshny.

1.70Tip and bets
Salavat Yulaev is the favorite in the upcoming match for several reasons. Firstly, Ufa will play at home again, where with the support of fans they have a slightly better chance of success, and are not tired of traveling, unlike Traktor, which is playing away for the third match in a row. Secondly, the Greens showed an excellent game in the opening match with a key rival, delighting the fans with a high percentage of shots. Traktor allowed Barys to shoot too much, and if the Kazakhs had the same high percentage, they could have won. Indeed, the Bears' defensive line is not the most reliable in the league, which the Greens will try to take advantage of.
