The answer is in our forecast
Command Analysis
Chelmet Chelyabinsk
Russian FederationCurrent form
The Chelyabinsk team has slowed down and is currently failing to reach the playoffs. The team position is very slippery, and its play has not been entirely confident lately. In the last away series of three games, Chelmet did not win a single victory. In the last encounter, Marat Askarov team lost to Kazan Bars (4:5), leading after the first period with a score of 2:0, and earlier lost on away ice to Chelny (3:5) and Neftyanik in overtime. The coaching staff needs to improve the game in the defensive line, and after four defeats in a row, it is necessary to do a lot of work on the mistakes. The Chelyabinsk team managed to win 18 victories in 36 games and is in 17th place in the tournament table. The team has failed in its last games in the VHL, but intends to improve the situation and start earning the coveted points. Chelmet has scored 108 goals and has already suffered 18 failures. The team is behind its rivals in the TOP-16 only in additional indicators and needs to make every effort to get to the playoffs.

2.47Tip and bets
There is no favorite in this matchup, but we will give preference to the hosts from Chelyabinsk. Chelmet has suffered defeats in four previous matches and intends to improve the situation at home and end the unsuccessful series. Marat Askarov charges will take advantage of their ice, and we can assume that they will inflict another defeat on their opponent from Perm.
Forecast - Chelmet victory in the match with odds of 1.67
Bet on total
This pair is expected to play under the dictation of the hosts with a small number of scoring opportunities. The opponents have not been scoring many goals in recent games, and we believe that the goal-scoring extravaganza will not take place, as in the three previous face-to-face matches of five opponents.
Forecast - total under 5.5 goals with odds of 1.75
Bet on individual total
Chelmet has been showing confident play on its home ice since the start of the season and has scored at least two goals in the last five games. We can assume that the hosts will be able to score more than two goals again.
Forecast - individual total of "Chelmet" more than 2.5 goals for 1.75
