HC SochiMy arguments for the prediction are that CSKA has a strong home record, while Metallurg tends to struggle on the road. CSKA has had the upper hand in previous meetings against Metallurg. I expect CSKA to win.
The Metallurgist, the current champion, is gradually finding form, has potential, and needs victories. CSKA, on the other hand, is not yet stable, alternating results. An interesting battle is expected, the Magnitogorsk team has a chance not to lose, the game will be equal. The guests can come out as a united team and beat CSKA or at least not lose.
Forecast: Draw in the CSKA - Metallurg match. Both teams show stability in defense, which could lead to a low score. Metallurg has strengthened their defense in their recent games, and CSKA has been playing more cautiously after the derby. A total of less than 5.5 goals seems like a reasonable choice, considering the teams' previous results and playing styles.
