I predict a victory for Rostov in the match against Bars in the Russian Hockey League (VHL) on February 2nd. The main arguments for this prediction are the similar quality of both teams and the home advantage for Rostov. Both teams are currently towards the bottom of the league table, with Rostov in 27th place and Bars in 25th place. However, Rostov has shown promising results in their recent home matches, drawing against the league leaders Rubin and defeating Dynamo from Saint Petersburg. On the other hand, Bars has lost 8 out of their last 10 away games. Considering these factors, it is expected that Rostov will be able to capitalize on their home advantage and secure a victory against Bars in regulation time.
