Yunison Moscow
Russian FederationCurrent form
Last season, Unison played in the NMHL, took first place in the championship, won the playoff final and is now trying its hand at the VHL. The start of the season for the club was not going well at all. Unison is gradually getting used to the new league, but in recent games it has been showing an uncertain game, and the Muscovites have not yet gained experience. The team has suffered nine defeats in the past 10 matches and is fighting at the bottom of the standings. In the last game, the team lost on the away ice to Ryazan (0:2), and the game before that, it lost in a shootout to Torpedo-Gorky, ending the regular time of the match with a score of 2:2. It is worth noting the victory over their current opponent (3:2), and it was the only one in the last month. At this stage, they have 24 points and are in the last place in the tournament table, and are only one point behind Izhstal, which is ahead. The team was weaker than its opponents in 26 matches, which is the worst result in the championship, and they have also missed 112 goals.

In this confrontation, bookmakers put the home team as the undisputed favorite. The Voskresensk team has gained excellent form, has been showing a brilliant game lately and intends to take revenge on the opponent. Khimik may well crush Unison today, leaving no chance for the opponent.
Forecast - handicap (-1.5) puck on Khimik with odds of 1.65
Bet on total
Both teams prefer an attacking style of play. In the last face-to-face match in Moscow, the opponents scored five goals between them. Three of the past five meetings of the Voskresensk team were not productive, and we believe that the goal extravaganza will not take place.
Forecast - total under 5.5 goals with odds of 1.77
Bet on individual total
Khimik has no problems with goals scored. In eight of the last 10 matches, the team scored at least two goals, and the visitors have not conceded fewer in 10 games in a row. We expect the hosts to score at least four goals.
Forecast - Khimik individual total over 3.5 goals for 1.77
