Russian FederationCurrent form
Magnitogorsk Youth team is headed by Stanislav Shumik for the fourth season. Throughout the winter, Steel Foxes and Cars from Yekaterinburg replaced each other in the fight for sixth place in the Eastern Conference Gold Division. Thanks to the victory in the last game of the regular season over the White Bears (4-3 B), Magnitogorsk Metallurg's youth were able to beat Avtomobilist's youth and took sixth place in the standings with 63 points, as it was a year ago. Magnitogorsk defeated their opponent in the first match of the series with a score of 3:1. The Foxes actively started the meeting. In the seventh minute, the team took the lead, and at the end of the segment scored another goal, but after a video review, the goalkeeper was hindered. In the middle of the meeting, the squad consolidated the advantage, but in the middle of the third period, the Permians scored one goal. However, the Hammer failed to equalize the score, and 19 seconds before the final siren, the Magnitogorsk club scored into an empty net.

Alexander Ageev, like his colleague from Magnitogorsk, has been leading the youth of the Perm Hammer for the fourth year in a row. In the fall, the Permians had a series of three and five wins in a row, but there were also unfortunate moments: they lost in four meetings in a row. In February and March, the Hammer played a series of six matches with points scored, during which he scored four victories. By the beginning of spring, eight games before the end of the regular season, the Perm team was ten points behind the play-in zone. As it seemed, the squad would not win back this gap, and for the second year in a row they would have to stay without matches. However, the coaching staff set up their players very coolly, and the team won seven of the last eight matches and, thanks to Reactor misfires, rose to third place in the Silver Division at the last moment. The club lost the first match of the series, losing to the Gold representative on its ice, but the team managed to resist the foxes, and let's see what happens in the second match on Magnitogorsk ice. The series is 0:1, but so far all is not lost.
Interesting betting trends
- The club scores 2.8 goals per game on average.
- In the last 10 games, the Hammer has won seven victories.

The Steel Foxes have no problems offensively, and the team has scored 18 goals against the opponent in the last five face-to-face matches.
