Command Analysis

Torpedo

Current form
Torpedo completed an away series of three matches, which turned out to be quite successful in the end. In the first match, the team faced Severstal and, due to very accurate shots, they were able to earn a significant advantage, which they held until the end of the meeting (3:2). However, Larionov's wards were unable to consolidate their success. We had to fight a very serious opponent in the person of CSKA, and this time the defense failed, which led to a defeat (2:4). Goalkeeper Kulbakov couldn't handle a huge number of shots, deflecting only 90% of them. The car factory team was able to rehabilitate themselves in front of the fans and regain their lost points on a visit to Vityaz, where they themselves showed their attacking potential and won in regular time with a score of 4:3.
However, after returning to the home arena, the club fought with the Avant-Garde, which gained amazing form. As expected, Torpedo could not stop the Omsk team and was defeated with a score of 2:3. Despite the lost points, it is worth noting goalkeeper Bocharov, who managed to deflect 38 shots, which made it possible to avoid a complete failure. So far, the team remains the last one in the playoff zone who did not receive a ticket to the Gagarin Cup, but it's only a matter of time, since the advantage over the nearest competitor is nine points.

Spartak Moscow

Current form
At the moment, Spartak is on the decline, which is why it has not been able to succeed for three consecutive matches. The team unsuccessfully completed the away series, having been defeated by Dinamo Minsk (1:2). There were huge problems with the implementation of the attacking moments, of which there were plenty. Of the 34 throws, only one reached the target. Returning to the home arena, the red and white fought with the Avant-Garde and this time they were completely defeated with a score of 1:5. The defensive line showed its worst side, as well as both goalkeepers Zagidulin and Nikolaev, who reflected only 85% of shots between the two.
It seemed that in the next match the Muscovites would easily rehabilitate themselves in front of the fans and break their string of failures, but this did not happen. The team hosted a clear outsider in the person of Kunlun and allowed the opponent to score two goals, playing in the minority, which was the main reason for another defeat in overtime with a score of 2:3. Due to the lost points, the club has already dropped to fifth place in the Western Conference table and if it does not come to its senses before the end. regular rates, then it may well drop even lower.

Spartak once again got a great opportunity to break its series of failures. The team should already start to recover, and in the upcoming match it has every chance of success, as it will fight Torpedo. Nizhny Novgorod residents have been showing very unstable results for a long time, which means that they should not believe in the success of Larionov's wards. Muscovites are superior to their competitors in all respects, which they prove throughout the regular season. So we suggest betting in favor of the guests.
