This season, the team from Kirovo-Chepetsk is trying its hand at the VHL and at a new level, it is not showing the best hockey, but it is giving a fight to more experienced teams. The squad is much weaker than many other opponents, and the club is not yet ready to fight for high places. The team has already suffered 29 defeats this season and conceded 135 goals, while winning a devil dozen and scoring only 92 goals. In the last game, Olimpia won a confident victory in the calendar confrontation against Krasnoyarsk Sokol (5:2), without losing in any of the three periods.

2.07Tip and bets
In this confrontation, bookmakers put the guests as the favorites, and we fully agree with this. Norilsk won four of the six away matches and intends to earn a full two points on the other side arena. The team from Norilsk will use a more powerful lineup, and we can assume that they will inflict another defeat on their opponent and gain a very important victory in the season.
Betting Tip - Norilsk win with odds of 1.70
Bet on total
This pair is expected to play under the guests' dictation with a small number of scoring opportunities. The opponents have been throwing few pucks at their opponents in recent games, and we believe that the goal-scoring extravaganza will not take place, as in Norilsk last game on the opponent ice.
Betting Tip - total under 5.5 goals with odds of 1.65
Bet on individual total
Norilsk has been showing confident play both at home and away since the start of the season, but has scored no more than three goals in the last three games in a row. We can assume that the Norilsk club will again be unable to score more than three goals.
Betting Tip - Norilsk individual total less than three goals for 1.87
