Command Analysis

AKM

Current form
In the last championship, for the first time in its history, the team made it to the finals of the Petrov Cup, but it failed to win the honorary trophy, but all is not lost yet and a lot of effort must be put into making it to the finals of the competition. If we talk about the result, it still ensures a solid performance in the matches. At this stage, the squad has won 29 victories, scored 149 goals and scored 63 points. AKM is in 10th place in the standings, is fighting well in the playoff zone, and has a six-point lead over the TOP 16. In the last match, the club was able to beat Naberezhnye Chelny on its ice (4:2), winning its fourth victory in five games. And Irek Galyaviev's team defeated the Kazan "Bars" (6:1) earlier in the game.
Interesting betting trends
- In the last five face-to-face games, the team won only one victory.
- In the past five games, the club has not lost in the first period.

Neftyanik Almetyevsk

Current form
The current Petrov Cup winner at this stage cannot boast of his results from the word at all. Climbing into the TOP 16 in the regular season of this season will not be easy, and the task for the club is barely feasible. Artyom Anisimov's team shows a weak game and does not follow the instructions of the coaching staff, which leads to unnecessary losses. The club has suffered three defeats in the last five meetings, and the team's game is not sticking together. The away series of games for Neftyanik is going poorly – one victory was won in three matches. In the last meeting, the team was defeated by Khimik (1:4), and lost the game before to Ryazan (2:3). Most of the championship is over, and there are no prerequisites for defending the title earned last year. After 49 confrontations, the Almetyevsk team is in a low 25th place in the standings, has 49 points in the asset and is nine points behind the Southern Urals from 16th place.
Interesting betting trends
- Since the beginning of the season, the team has averaged 2.8 goals per game.
- The club has suffered nine defeats in the last 15 matches.

In this confrontation, the favorite in the match is the masters of the ice. AKM has won four victories in the past five meetings, and it intends to continue to show excellent play and achieve its goals for the season. The Tula squad will benefit from the experience, and we can assume that a more balanced team composition will be a decisive factor in the match and help the club beat the opponent.
The forecast is an AKM victory with a coefficient of 1.83
Bet on the total
In this pair, most likely, there will be a game dictated by the hosts with a lot of scoring chances. The club from Tula has been throwing a lot lately, and one AKM will be able to break through the high total. In the last two AKM home matches in a row, the total was higher, and we believe that the scoring extravaganza will take place in the match.
The forecast is a total of more than 4.5 goals with a coefficient of 1.63
Betting on an individual total
AKM has been playing well defensively since the start of the championship, and in the last five matches the club has conceded only seven goals. We can assume that the visiting team will score no more than two goals.
The forecast is for Neftyanik's individual total of less than two goals in 1.88
