Forecast: Total over 5.5 goals Arguments: Both teams play a high-scoring style of hockey, frequently finding the back of the net, but they also have defensive vulnerabilities that could lead to goals against. Neftekhimik and Severstal have shown good form recently, but they have also been inconsistent. Severstal had more time to rest. Expect an exciting and high-scoring game, with a good chance of there being more than 5.5 goals scored.
