Command Analysis
Gornyak Uchaly
Russian FederationCurrent form
The team from Verkhnyaya Pyshma has never won the regular VHL championship or the Petrov Cup in its history. The team is a typical mid-table team with a good selection of players who perform at the proper level, but in some areas they still lack skill. Having failed at the end of the last season, Alexey Alekseyev charges are still following all the instructions of the coaching staff, and the club looks an order of magnitude higher than last year. The team from Verkhnyaya Pyshma left no chance for last year Bratina Cup winner Neftyanik in the last game on home ice. The match was dictated by Gornyak-UMMC and ended with a confident 5:1 victory. This victory was the 17th in the season and allowed them to rise to seventh place in the standings. In the previous game, the team was unable to break the resistance of Chelny on home ice, losing in a shootout. The team has 42 points, scored 105 goals, acts with full dedication, but in some moments it is necessary to step up and act more confidently. It is worth noting that the team is in the TOP-5 of the league, who scored a hundred or more goals.
Interesting trends for betting
- Gornyak-UMMC has not lost in regulation time in five games in a row
- On average, the team concedes 2.8 goals per game
Bars Kazan
Russian FederationCurrent form
The Kazan club can count the last game period as a success. The team shows meaningful hockey, fights at the proper level and has not lost in regulation time in eight of the ten past matches. Alexander Stepanov charges beat Chelyabinsk Chelmet (3:2) in the last match on the away ice. The Kazan team was losing 0:2 after the second period, but they were able to find the strength and scored three unanswered goals against the opponent in the last 20 minutes. The team beat Barnaul Dynamo-Altai (4:3) in the previous game. Since the beginning of the championship, Bars has won 14 victories and scored 73 goals, with 15 defeats and 87 goals conceded. After 29 games played, the team is in 20th place in the tournament table with 34 points and is only three points behind its TOP-16 rivals, which can easily be won back if you do not make ridiculous mistakes, especially in matches with weaker opponents.
