Command Analysis
Torpedo
Russian FederationCurrent form
Torpedo continues to be on the decline, and the losing streak has already reached three games in a row. The team played away, where in the first game they were one step away from victory, but failed to hold on to a significant advantage, allowing the "bogatyrs" to tie the score just a few seconds before the final whistle, and then had to suffer an offensive defeat in a shootout (5:6). Goalkeeper Bocharov showed his worst side, reflecting only 73% of the shots. Almost the same scenario was followed in the match with St. Petersburg SKA, in which the "automotive" team had a two-goal advantage at the end of the first period, but ultimately suffered a rout (4:6). This time, the entire defensive line played extremely poorly, allowing the "army men" to create a huge number of dangerous moments.
Returning to their home arena, Larionov team fought Lokomotiv and this time lost completely dry (0:5). One of the most productive clubs in the league was unable to score a single goal due to a very modest attack. Goalkeeper Kulbakov also performed poorly, reflecting 80% of the shots. The team decline has already dragged on for a very long time, which is why they had to drop to eighth place in the Western Conference standings, and now they are on the verge of being eliminated from the playoff zone.
Disqualifications and injuries
Torpedo lineup problems have increased. Abramov and Phillips have joined the injured Misnyakov.
Interesting trends for betting
- Torpedo scores an average of 3.3 goals per match
Nizhny Novgorod players regularly demonstrate impressive attacking play.
- "Avtozavodtsy" realized only 18% of the majority attempts
Despite its bright and productive attacking play, Torpedo rarely uses its opponents' penalties to its advantage.
Barys Nur-Sultan
KazakhstanCurrent form
This season may well become one of the worst in Barys' history. The team has been experiencing huge problems since the start of the regular season and rarely achieves the desired results. The main reason for the club failure is its lowest offensive performance among all teams in the league. On average, the Kazakhs score only 1.3 goals per game, which is simply unthinkable for hockey. It is also worth noting the fact that the defensive line is unable to compensate for such a weak offensive performance. This is the reason why the team remains in 11th place in the Eastern Conference standings, with only 23 points.
At the moment, the "Bars" are on the decline, and the losing streak has already reached four games in a row. Initially, the club played away, where they lost to "Kunlun" (0:2), and also suffered a defeat from "Traktor" with a difference of only one goal (2:3). Returning to the home arena, the team again met with the Chelyabinsk team, but this time they were not so reliable, which led to five missed goals and another failure (3:5). Goalkeeper Shutov was unable to cope with the huge number of shots, reflecting only 85% of them. Continuing to play at home, "Barys" fought "Sibir" and again did not score a single goal (0:2).
Disqualifications and injuries
It is worth noting that Barys has no problems with its roster. Only Starchenko is in the infirmary.
Interesting trends for betting
- Barys scores an average of 1.3 goals per match
The Kazakhs continue to experience huge problems with attacking efficiency.
- On average, a team receives six penalty minutes per match.
The club only strong point remains its very disciplined play, which allows it to remain at full strength.

Torpedo has a great opportunity to break its losing streak. In the upcoming match, the team will face one of the weakest clubs in the league and simply must win. The Nizhny Novgorod team will play at home, where, with the support of the fans, they must show their attacking potential and rehabilitate themselves before the fans for the dry defeat from Lokomotiv. It is hard to believe that Barys will be able to cling to points, so we are confidently betting on the victory of the home team.
Our prediction is Torpedo victory at 1.51
Bet on total
Torpedo is one of the most productive clubs in the league, but Barys scores an average of one goal per match. It is unlikely that the Nizhny Novgorod team will be able to break the total of more than five goals on their own.
Forecast - total under five goals for 1.71
Bet on the outcome of the first period
Due to its significant superiority over Barys, Torpedo should play first and create serious pressure on the opponent from the first minutes of the match, and the home walls will help the club earn an advantage in the starting segment.
Prediction - Torpedo wins in the first period for 1.97
