Command Analysis
Traktor
Russian FederationCurrent form
Traktor is in first place in the Eastern Conference and has already earned a total of 67 points. The team is ahead of its closest pursuer Ak Bars by five points at the moment, so it can feel more or less comfortable. Plus, its game has been going well lately, and it has been consistently successful. Let us recall that the Chelyabinsk team won four previous games, so we can say that the hardest times are behind them.
Let us recall that Benoit Groux team dealt with Torpedo (5:3), the same Sibir (4:3 B) on the road, and also proved their superiority over Neftekhimik with a score of 4:2. After that, the club returned to their home court in a good mood, where they were able to beat Vityaz with a score of 4:3. In the final confrontation with the giants, the bears acted in their usual style and spent most of the time in the attack zone, so they made 36 shots at the opponent goal, thanks to which they scored four goals.
It is also worth remembering that Traktor remains the most productive club in the East and often scores three goals, especially when playing at home. The Bears play their best in the last twenty minutes, during which they have a 59:45 ratio of goals scored and conceded and almost always succeed in attack. The main scorer in the team is Maxim Shabanov, who managed to score 46 points in the goal + pass system.

Sibir Novosibirsk
Russian FederationCurrent form
Siberia is in eighth place in the Eastern Conference and continues to actively fight for a place in the playoffs. Competitors are literally breathing down their necks, so they can't relax under any circumstances. However, they haven't been able to earn points lately and have faced a series of defeats. However, it hard to remember when the team was in its best shape, since such periods have happened quite often this season.
Thus, in six previous meetings out of seven Novosibirsk lost. They often brought the matter to overtime and shootouts, but in the series of post-match shots, luck was always not on their side. Thus, after a hard-fought victory over Neftekhimik (2:1 OT), they lost in turn to Traktor (3:4 SO), Lokomotiv (2:3 SO) and CSKA (3:4 SO). In the previous meeting with the army team, the snowmen had an advantage of two goals, but even this was not enough to earn a full two points.
Often, Vadim Epanchintsev team has huge problems with creating and converting chances and usually does not score more than two goals on the road. As a rule, Sibir relies entirely on its game in 5x4 and 5x3 formats and is the best in the league in this indicator. However, the main scorer in the team is defenseman Trevor Murphy, which, in turn, speaks of the weakness of the attacking line.

2.10Tip and bets
Traktor can count on two points in this confrontation. Chelyabinsk finished all previous matches against Siberia in their favor and often achieved success in regular time. The Bears, in addition, have gained excellent condition and are currently in their best form in the last couple of months. Novosibirsk went on this trip in a bad mood, since in three previous matches they lost as disappointingly as possible. In addition, the snowmen have recently experienced a lot of difficulties on other people courts.
Prediction - Traktor win for 1.75
Bet on individual total
Traktor is the most productive club in the Eastern Conference at the moment. Usually the team opens the opponents' defense at least three times. In previous meetings, the Chelyabinsk team also showed decent efficiency and looked great in attack. Siberia, on the other hand, missed at least three times in six previous matches against the Bears. We think that this time the Gro team will please the fans with goals.
We bet on Traktor individual total over 2.5 goals for 1.60
Total Bet
Previous matches between the clubs were quite spectacular and often had more than four goals scored. Traktor has scored a lot lately, but also missed a lot in response. Novosibirsk also played two out of three matches with six goals scored. Considering the Bears' tendency to play more open hockey, it makes sense to bet on the total over in the upcoming confrontation.
We take the total over 4.5 pucks with the coefficient 1.67
