Command Analysis
Metallurg Magnitogorsk
Russian FederationCurrent form
Metallurg performed well during the regular part of the season and was initially considered one of the main contenders from the East, but clearly did not want to get to the Vanguard in the first round. However, now Magnitogorsk needs to find the thread of the game and correct the mistakes that were made in the opening meeting with Omsk, otherwise they risk going away without a single victory in the asset.
It should be noted that in the last confrontation, Andrei Razin's squad was able to join the fight only at the beginning of the third twenty minutes, when they realized the majority, but by that moment they were already losing 0:3 and had practically no chance of a full-fledged rescue. At the same time, Magnitogorsk created a lot of dangerous chances at someone else's goal and scored a total of 38 shots, but failed to form a single goal in equal formations.
Magnitogorsk players will probably try to rebuild after such a setback and will act even more reliably in defense, as well as play more interesting offensively.
Disqualifications and injuries
Vladislav Yeremenko will not be able to help his team in the upcoming match due to injury.
Interesting betting trends
- Metallurg makes an average of 33 shots on target per match
- Metallurg wins 48.5% of face-offs
Avangard Omsk
Russian FederationCurrent form
Avangard improved significantly in the second half of the season and began to win match after match. If the team had made it to the playoffs led not by Guy Boucher, but, for example, by Sergey Zvyagin, it could hardly have claimed anything serious. Now Omsk residents absolutely believed in their strengths and believed that they could achieve great heights this year.
The Hawks were very restrained in the first match and had an incredibly powerful opening twenty minutes, during which they scored two goals, so they spent most of the match from a position of strength. Of course, Omsk's discipline was a little lame, as they violated the rules four times, but at the same time they acted almost flawlessly in equal formations and deservedly achieved success.
At the post-match press conference, the club's coach noted that one of the keys to victory was extensive preparation for the opponent, because the coaching staff had studied more than 30 hours of videos the day before. In general, it was clear that the hawks clearly adhere to the game plan and do not deviate from it, so only excessive emotions could interfere with them in this case.
Disqualifications and injuries
Boikov and Stepanov will not be able to help their team in the upcoming meeting.
Interesting betting trends
- Avangard gets an average of 6.71 minutes of penalty time per match.
- Omsk wins 50.7% of face-offs

1.65The 3rd periodbet: Omsk will score
In four out of five meetings, Omsk scored goals in the third period.
1.67Tip and bets
In our opinion, the Vanguard can expect to win in the upcoming match. Omsk demonstrated a powerful game in the opening match and brought the matter to a victorious end without any problems. If the hawks act more disciplined this time and do not give the opponent unnecessary chances to score, they will leave for Omsk, having a comfortable advantage in the confrontation. Moreover, do not forget that even at the end of the regular season, the guests very rarely conceded within the regular time.
Betting Tip - Avangard won't lose in 1.70
Betting on an individual total
In the previous match, Metallurg was able to score only one abandoned puck, and he scored it only in the 5x4 format. Omsk players are disciplined in their own zone and do not allow a large number of dangerous moments at their own goal. Avangard also has Nikita Serebryakov, who already has extensive experience playing in the playoffs, so he knows how to tune in to such matches.
We bet on the individual total of the Metallurgist less than 2.5 washers for 1.85
Bet on the total total
We won't expect a lot of goals scored in this match. It is likely that the meeting will be held in the same way as the last match. Avangard does not aim to score as many goals as possible, and Metallurg will obviously try to play harder in defense. It is no coincidence that the last five meetings between the clubs have been inconclusive and ended with fewer than six goals scored.
We take a total of less than 5.5 goals for 1.52
