Metallurgist is showing an excellent game this season and is in the leading position in the Eastern Conference. The team managed to break out of a bad streak and started to catch up on lost points. In the last matches against "Neftekhimik", Metallurg showed confident play, winning twice with a score of 8-3 and 3-1. Additionally, several times this season Metallurg successfully played against Salavat in away games. The Magnitogorsk team not only won twice against Ufa with a score of 2-1 and 1-0 in September but also demonstrated their strengths in decisive matches of the home series against "Neftekhimik". Salavat, on the other hand, lacks stability in away games and has problems playing against strong teams. Therefore, it can be expected that Metallurg will once again show its superiority and secure a victory on their home ice in regulation time. The probability of this outcome is supported not only by Metallurg's successful recent games but also by the statistics of their previous meetings with Salavat. Therefore, it is recommended to predict Metallurg's victory in regulation time.
Forecast: Total over 4.5 goals in the match between Metallurg Magnitogorsk and Salavat Yulaev Ufa. Justification: In their previous meeting, these teams scored 9 goals, with 6 of them being scored in the third period. Both teams play an attacking style of hockey and in this match, they will both be seeking revenge and aiming for a high-scoring game. Metallurg is the leader of their conference, and Salavat Yulaev needs points to strengthen their position. It is also worth noting that in Salavat Yulaev's previous away games, the average number of goals scored was 5.6, indicating their attacking approach when playing on the road. Taking all these factors into account, an interesting and goal-filled match is expected, and a total over 4.5 goals is quite probable.
In the upcoming match between Metallurg and Salavat Yulaev in Magnitogorsk, it is expected that the total goals scored will be higher. Metallurg, playing with a young lineup, is focused on attack and scoring goals. They do not pay much attention to their own net, so a higher total is quite likely. Salavat Yulaev also does not excel in defense, but they create enough scoring opportunities. The overall total for this match could be promising. The odds for this event are also attractive. Vanya Ignatyev recommends taking the over 5.5 total goals at odds of 2.62.
The analysis of the teams' recent results shows that Metallurg has won their last three games. The particularly noteworthy victory was over Salavat a few days ago, indicating that the team is in good form. Additionally, Metallurg has demonstrated their strength on home turf, suffering only one defeat against Lada. Taking these factors into consideration, it can be concluded that Metallurg has a good chance of success in the upcoming match. The handicap (-1.5) becomes an attractive bet, as Metallurg often wins by a significant margin. Furthermore, the team has been performing well at home, further strengthening the prediction of their victory. Considering the team's positive state, their recent results, and their home arena, a prediction can be made for Metallurg to win with a handicap (-1.5). These arguments provide a basis for confidence in their success and a favorable outcome in the game.
