Command Analysis
Admiral Vladivostok
Russian FederationCurrent form
At the beginning of the season, Admiral had a long home series, in which they consistently showed excellent results, beating any competitors on their way. Then the sailors went to play away, where a serious decline began, in five matches they managed to win only one victory over Lada (2:0). There were even major defeats, in matches with Minsk Dynamo and Sochi they had to suffer defeats with a score of 2:7 and 0:5, respectively.
Many expected that, having returned to their home arena, the Vladivostok team would once again please the fans with success, but in the very first match they had to lose to Severstal in overtime (5:6). Admiral tried to show open attacking hockey and play on the counter courses, which they managed to do, but the defense seriously let them down, allowing the opponent to create a huge number of dangerous moments near their goal. Goalkeeper Mishurov did not cope with his task, reflecting only 85% of the shots. The situation repeated itself in the return match with Lada, which ended in a crushing defeat with a score of 1:6. Only this time the puck stubbornly refused to fly into the target: out of 39 shots, only one was effective.
Disqualifications and injuries
Admiral is playing with almost its full fighting squad, and of the injured players, only striker Stepan Starkov remains.
Interesting trends for betting
- Admiral concedes an average of 3.4 goals per match
One of the main problems of the Vladivostok team remains their weak defensive play, which leads to defeats.
- In 33% of cases, Admiral misses a puck after a penalty
It is also worth noting that the “sailors” are not the most reliable in the minority, which is something that their opponents constantly take advantage of.
Lada Togliatti
Russian FederationCurrent form
After a tough start to the season, Lada finally started to pick up the pace and earn points consistently. The team had a successful home series, which they started with a victory over Admiral in a shootout (1:0), and then consolidated their success by snatching victory from Sibir in overtime (4:3). However, in the return match with the sailors they still had to suffer a setback with a score of 0:2, mainly due to the modest play of the attacking line.
Then the Togliatti team went on an away trip, where they played two games in Khabarovsk, first losing to Amur (0:2), and then winning a confident victory (5:3). In the second game, the second line was very pleasing, in particular, it is worth noting the forwards Mikhailov and Popugaev, who scored three points each. Lada was able to fully reveal its attacking potential in the match with Admiral, taking advantage of its lapses in defense and defeating it with a score of 6:1. Once again, Mikhailov showed his best side, scoring a goal and also giving an assist. One cannot help but note the efforts of goalkeeper Pod'yapolsky, who reflected 38 shots.
Disqualifications and injuries
Forward Andrey Altybarmakyan is still in the infirmary and will not be able to take part in the upcoming match. All other players are in the ranks.

At the start of the season, Togliatti experienced serious problems both with creating and converting attacking opportunities, which continues to this day.
