    ⭐️ Editor’s Prediction

    Their latest win helped Izhstal snap a three-game losing streak, but the visitors still hold the edge based on recent form. AKM have suffered just one regulation defeat over the same stretch and head into this road trip looking far more consistent than their hosts. Given the contrasting results, it’s reasonable to back the Tula side to get the job done, even if it takes more than 60 minutes. My pick: AKM to win including overtime and shootout.
