Command Analysis

Salavat Yulaev Ufa

Current form
After a successful start in the quarterfinal series, Salavat Yulaev began to have problems. The team played at home, where in the first match they defeated Spartak with a score of 4:1. The second-tier striker Rempal showed a great game, scoring a hat-trick of assists. But in the second leg, they allowed their opponent to even the score in the series, suffering an insulting defeat in overtime (4:5). Most notably, the Muscovites miraculously equalized the score by scoring the puck just a second before the final whistle. Goalkeeper Samonov did not cope with his task, reflecting only 84% of shots.
Next, the greens went to play on the road, where they could not rehabilitate themselves for failure and continued to show a very weak defensive game. Ufa first lost with a score of 2:4, and after that they were completely defeated with a difference of four goals (2:6). Samonov played one of the worst matches this season, deflecting only 79% of shots.

Spartak Moscow

Current form
Spartak came to the playoffs in great shape, which it proved in the opening series by defeating Severstal with a final score of 4:1. The Muscovites showed a very reliable defensive game and achieved success without any problems due to a powerful attacking line. However, in the quarterfinals, the red-whites faced a much more serious opponent in the person of Salavat Yulaev and in the very first match suffered a crushing defeat with a score of 1:4. It turned out to be impossible to restrain the opponent's pressure, and he made as many as 47 shots in three periods, which led to failure.
As expected, Spartak quickly rehabilitated itself in front of the fans and in the very next match pulled out a heavy Victory in overtime (5:4). Goalkeeper Zagidulin made a huge contribution to the success, reflecting 43 shots. But the Muscovites were able to prove themselves in all their glory already at the home arena, where they twice left no chance for Salavat, gaining the upper hand with the score 4:2 and 6:2, respectively. It is impossible not to mention the striker Morozov, who scored four points in both meetings.

It's hard to believe that Salavat Yulaev will let Spartak get to the semifinals so easily. The team played a great game at home, where they should have beaten their opponents twice, but they were a little unlucky. In the upcoming match, Ufa players will return to their ice, where they cannot disappoint their fans. In addition, it is worth noting that another failure will lead to relegation, so the hosts will give their best. We suggest betting in favor of the greens, but to make sure we take their victory, including OT.
