Norilsk

Current form
Norilsk lost its form a bit, but in the last game it was able to defeat its opponent in the Arctic Ice Palace. The team met with CSK VVS in its arena. The match turned out to be the hardest for the team from Norilsk again. We played well, created a lot of scoring chances and were able to cope with the resistance of the Samaritans. Norilsk scored two goals against their opponent and left their goal intact – 2-0 in the end. A match earlier, Vladimir Gusev's team failed to earn precious points and consolidate their position in the league. The team lost to the Moscow Star (4:5 B).

Dizel Penza

Current form
The team's management was dissatisfied with the work of the head coach and parted ways with Albert Loginov, who was replaced by Dmitry Shandurov, but is still only acting. The diesel drivers have failed to start the VHL championship, they have improved their position a little bit at this stage, and it will be very difficult to compete for entry into the Petrov Cup playoffs. Recently, Penza residents have stopped spoiling the fans with results and suffered four defeats in a row. The team's game doesn't go by the word at all, and let's see if the squad can make an effort in pursuit of the TOP 16, where the gap has reached four points. Since the start of the championship, the team has won 30 victories with as many losses and scored only 148 goals. In the last meeting, the squad lost to the Krasnoyarsk Falcon (4:5), and the game earlier turned out to be weaker than Novokuznetsk Metallurgist (2:4). Diesel is on the 21st place in the standings with 65 points in the asset and, most likely, will not compete in the matches this season.
Interesting betting trends
- On average, the club has been scoring 2.5 goals per game since the beginning of the season.
- The team loses two games in a row to its current opponent.
