Command Analysis
Metallurg Magnitogorsk
Russian FederationCurrent form
Metallurg currently sits on the fifth line of the Eastern Conference and has 74 points in its asset, so it can feel extremely comfortable. With a strong desire, the team can improve its position in the standings, since even five points separate it from the second line. Moreover, she has been showing good results lately and has completed most of the fights in her favor.
Magnitogorsk residents have recently been able to issue a series of three victorias. However, after successful matches against Siberia (5:2) and Barys (3:1), they still stumbled in the confrontation with Avangard (1:2). But Andrey Razin's team did not plan to be discouraged for a long time, so in the next meeting with Severstal they celebrated success with a score of 4:1, leaving their opponent no chance. In that game, she played a great first and third game segments, and also famously took advantage of the numerical advantage, making two attempts out of four.
By the way, Magnitogorsk often has difficulties with this aspect of the game this season, but it is actively working in this direction and already has 19.5% of excess sales, which can already be called a good indicator. We emphasize that the foxes usually add at the end of matches and it is no coincidence that in the final twenty minutes they have a 52:41 ratio in scoring and conceding goals.

Yeremenko and Yurov will not be able to participate in the upcoming match due to injuries.

Barys Nur-Sultan
KazakhstanCurrent form
Barys is located in the basement of the Eastern Conference standings and continues to lose match after match, which is why it is still four points behind Amur. The team has completely stopped pleasing the fans with victories and continues to lose match after match, while there is no progress in its game. As a rule, she is inferior to many rivals within the regular time. At the moment, her losing streak has already totaled eight matches.
After the break, the Leopards began their home series of matches. First, they lost to SKA (2:5) on their own ice, after which they lost to Lada (2:4) and lost to Metallurg (1:3). The club did not play the best way against Severstal either and lost heavily (2:6). Galym Mambetaliev's team went away in a mediocre mood, as they also managed to lose to the Admiral with a score of 2:4, once again missing four times. By the way, in most cases, Barys began to show a weak defensive game and began to concede much more than before. Now he regularly has at least three or four goals in the net.
The Leopards are also playing poorly on other people's courts, since up to this point they have been able to score only four wins within 60 minutes. The most disastrous performance of the team remains the second game period, in which he has a ratio of 27:67 in goals scored and conceded.

Boyarkin and Mukhametov will not be able to participate in the upcoming match due to injuries.

Trends
Bet 1st period: total less than 1.5 pucks
In three of the four matches involving the hosts, the first period was inconclusive.
1.75The bet of the 2nd period: the victory of the hosts
In the last two meetings against Barys, Magnitogorsk had reserved the second period for themselves.
1.75Tip and bets
We think that Metallurg will be able to earn two points in the upcoming match and once again deal with Astana residents. The teams had already met not so long ago in Astana, and then the foxes proved their superiority and dealt with the opponent in the class with a score of 3:1. At the moment, Razin's squad is in excellent shape and previously had excellent results, so the leopards will have very little chance of success. It is likely that the hosts will deal with their opponent with a difference of several goals.
Prediction - Metallurg wins with an Asian handicap (-1.5) on goals in 1.57
Betting on an individual total
In many matches, Barys remains with the minimum number of goals scored, especially when playing away. As a rule, Astana players are not able to score more than one goal when they play against teams in the playoff zone. In the last two meetings against Astana, Magnitogorsk also managed with less than two goals conceded. Considering that Magnitogorsk plays well defensively, we suggest betting on the individual total of the guests.
We take Barys' individual total of less than 1.5 pucks for 1.80
Bet on the total total
Previous matches between the clubs were inconclusive and took place with less than six goals scored. Metallurg increased its defense and began to competently neutralize most of the threats at its gates. Barys, in general, conducts away matches ineffectively and scores few goals. Most likely, Magnitogorsk will also try to deal with their opponent in the class this time, so we won't see a lot of goals.
We bet on a total of less than 5.5 pucks for 1.70
