In this confrontation, we will give preference to Spartak, and the favorite in the match is the guests.

In this pair, the guests will most likely have the advantage. The teams are absolutely different in terms of the level of play and selection of players. It is worth paying attention to the fact that in the last three matches of Atlant out of five in the MHL, more than five goals were scored, and we believe that in this confrontation a goal extravaganza will take place.

Atlant has had some problems converting scoring opportunities in recent games. Over the past five games, the Mytishchi team has scored only 12 goals, and we believe that the hosts will not be able to upset their opponents more than twice.
