Kazan's Ak Bars is in good form, having won 3 games in a row. Lada, on the other hand, has lost 3 games in a row. Ak Bars has a high level of attacking play and stability. Lada is struggling and can't find its game. I believe the match will end with a victory for Ak Bars.
In the match between Lada and Ak Bars, the advantage is on the hosts, who have been playing well in their recent games, even though they have lost. Ak Bars has not been showing consistent performance yet. The home ice will give Lada an additional boost for victory. My prediction: 1X (Lada not to lose).
Prediction: The meeting between Lada and Ak Bars is likely to be high-scoring. Lada has a weak defense and scores few goals, while Ak Bars is in great form, scoring a lot and winning games. Furthermore, the recent games between the teams have usually ended with a high number of goals scored. A total of over 4.5 goals is expected in this match.
