Izhstal IzhevskThe team Star is approaching this match in excellent form, having won their last five games in a row. They are motivated to win this match and seek revenge for their previous four defeats against Buran. Additionally, Star currently has an advantage in the standings over Buran, which may provide them with extra motivation to secure a victory. Comparing this to Buran's recent performances, they have been less confident, winning only three out of their last five matches. Their power play has been lacking, and Star may take advantage of this to launch successful attacks and score three goals. Furthermore, it is expected that the match will be open and intense, with both teams striving for success. This could create more opportunities for goal-scoring, and with Star's current form and strong offensive line, they have a good chance of scoring at least three goals in this match. Therefore, considering Star's good form, Buran's weaknesses, and the expected nature of the game, it is likely that the Star team will score at least three goals in this match.
