“Salavat Yulaev” - “Admiral”: forecast for the KHL match
On October 31, Salavat Yulaev will try to continue its winning streak, which has already reached three matches. In the upcoming match, the Ufa team will once again host Admiral, which has not been doing so well lately. Our experts have prepared a forecast that will help you decide on the most relevant bets
Command Analysis
Salavat Yulaev Ufa
Russian FederationCurrent form
Salavat Yulaev had an unsuccessful end to the away series, having suffered a 2:4 defeat from Traktor, but, having returned to the home arena, the team completely rehabilitated itself before the fans and fully regained the lost points. In the first match, the Ufa team met with the obvious underdog in the person of Sochi and snatched victory in a shootout (3:2). The team looked much better than its opponent, as it created a huge number of dangerous moments, but their implementation let them down, which almost led to a second defeat in a row.
The Greens were able to consolidate their success in the match with Torpedo, where they realized their attacking potential to the fullest extent, which allowed them to win with a score of 5:4. In particular, it is worth praising forwards Rempala and Todd, who scored three points each. Then Salavat played with another league outsider, Admiral, and again achieved success in regular time (2:1). This time, goalkeeper Vyazovoy showed himself, reflecting 35 shots. A series of victories allowed the team to rise to fourth place in the Eastern Conference table, and the gap from second place was reduced to two points.
Disqualifications and injuries
Defender Yaroslav Tsulygin and forward Gleb Kuzmin remain in the Salavat Yulaev infirmary.
Interesting trends for betting
- Salavat Yulaev scores an average of 3.05 goals per game
The Greens have been showing productive hockey throughout the season, which is mainly why they have achieved success.
- Ufa players converted 23.3% of their power play attempts
The team play with a one-man advantage is also worth praising. Salavat consistently takes advantage of opponents' penalties.
Admiral Vladivostok
Russian FederationCurrent form
As expected, Admiral started losing points again as soon as they left their home arena. The team went to visit Ak Bars, where in the first match they failed to score a single goal, losing dry (0:2). In the return match with Kazan, the sailors again looked much worse than their competitor, and this time goalkeeper Mishurov was not reliable enough, which led to another failure with a score of 2:4. The Vladivostok team was able to show active play in attack again on the road against Salavat Yulaev, but a large number of shots on the opponent goal did not bring the desired result - they had to lose with a difference of one goal (1:2).
It is worth noting that this season Admiral is trying to rely on the attacking line and consistently plays open hockey, which so far has only borne fruit at home. Indeed, the team earned almost all of its points playing at home, but on the road it consistently suffers losses. Because of this, the club is only in eighth place in the Eastern Conference standings, with 19 points.
Disqualifications and injuries
It is worth noting that Admiral has no problems with its roster and remains fully combat ready. The only player who is in the infirmary is forward Stepan Starkov.
Interesting trends for betting
- The Sailors are allowing an average of 3.25 goals per game.
As we have already noted, Admiral’s main problem remains weak defensive play.
- On average, Vladivostok players take 33 shots per match
The team continues to try to show its attacking potential to compensate for the lapses in defense.
Trends
Bet First goal: “Salavat Yulaev”
In four out of six head-to-head matches, Salavat Yulaev opened the scoring
1.55Goal in each period bet - yes
In three head-to-head matches in a row, the teams scored a goal in each period
1.62Tip and bets
Salavat Yulaev is in excellent shape, and in addition to this, they will be playing at home, where they consistently cope with almost all opponents on their way. It is for this reason that bookmakers single out the club as a clear favorite and do not believe in Admiral success at all, which we agree with. Indeed, betting on the "sailors" playing away is very risky, since the Vladivostok team performs worst on the road. And in general, the "greens" look much more confident in the game, so we suggest betting in favor of the home team.
Our prediction is Salavat Yulaev victory at 1.69
Bet on total
If you look at the head-to-head encounters, you will notice that the teams rarely show their attacking potential and almost never score more than five goals. We believe that in the upcoming match we should not expect high-scoring hockey.
Forecast - total under 5.5 goals for 1.73
Bet on the outcome of the first period
Salavat Yulaev is already superior to its opponent in class, and in addition to this, the Ufa team will also be playing on their home arena, where they have an even greater chance of winning in the starting segment.
Prediction - Salavat Yulaev wins in the first period for 2.12
