Command Analysis

Severstal Cherepovets

Current form
Severstal approached the playoffs in excellent shape, having a winning streak of three matches in a row. What is especially noteworthy is that the team beat not only rivals of its level, but in the final match of the regular season, Cherepovets defeated Dynamo Moscow (3:2). The attacking line showed a great game, creating powerful pressure on the opponent, and as a result, they managed to make as many as 41 shots in three periods.
However, the accumulated form did not help the club to successfully start in the playoffs. The team had to fight a very serious opponent, in the person of Spartak. In the first match, the Steelworkers again showed a very active offensive game and were able to earn a significant two-goal advantage, but they couldn't hold it, which eventually led to an insulting defeat in overtime (4:5). However, Severstal played much worse in the second leg and lost in regular time with a two-goal difference (2:4). Of the 42 shots, only two reached the target.
Disqualifications and injuries
Dyblenko and Lishka remain questionable.
Interesting betting trends

Spartak Moscow

Current form
It might seem that Spartak might have problems at the start of the playoffs, as the team did not finish the regular season in the best way. Indeed, in the final match of the regular season, the Muscovites fought one of the main outsiders of the Eastern Conference, snatching a heavy Victory in overtime (3:2). It should be noted that the red and white scored as many as 59 shots in three rounds, but the puck stubbornly did not want to fly to the target, which almost led to defeat.
Indeed, in the first match of the Gagarin Cup, Spartak had great difficulty achieving success in the match against a clear outsider, in the person of Severstal. Due to defensive failures, it came to overtime, where they still managed to snatch Victoria with a final score of 5:4. But in the second leg, the Muscovites left no chance for their competitor, gaining the upper hand with a two-goal difference (4:2). Goalkeeper Nikolavev showed a great game, reflecting 95% of the goals, which was the main reason for the success.

Severstal made an unsuccessful start in the playoffs, suffering two defeats in a row. But it is worth noting that the Cherepovets team played no worse than their competitor, and in some ways they looked even better and had excellent chances of success. The Cherpov team was a little unlucky with the realization of attacking chances, which were plentiful. Now the team has returned to the home arena, where, with the support of the fans, it must realize itself and defeat Spartak.
Our betting tip is that Severstal will win the match in 1.90
Bet on the total
Also, we should definitely expect a lot of dropped goals in the upcoming match. Both teams cannot boast of a reliable defensive game and mainly rely on the attacking line, which makes the matches productive. So there is a great opportunity to bet on the total more.
Betting Tip - total more than 5.5 goals in 1.90
Betting on the outcome of the first period
Spartak looked good in the first period, playing at home, but now the team will have to play on the road, where it will be more difficult to prove themselves. We believe that Severstal is quite capable of creating serious problems for Muscovites in the starting segment.
Betting Tip - Severstal wins with a handicap (0) in 1.86
