Total Goals Prediction
There have been fewer than 4.5 goals in 19 of Metallurg Novokuznetsk’s last 20 games. However, Khimik Voskresensk are averaging 3.8 goals per away game this season, a strong argument against the under. Even so, we’re backing under 4.5 total goals at odds of 1.8.
Safer bet
Fewer than 4.5 goals have been scored in 19 of Metallurg Novokuznetssk’s last 20 games, so each of those results also falls under the 6.5-goal line. We’re backing under 6.5 total goals at odds of 1.14.

⭐️ Editor’s Prediction
Metallurg Novokuznetsk are winning, but their games rarely produce many goals. No more than four goals have been scored in 19 of their last 20 games, including nine straight on home ice. That trend is too strong to ignore ahead of their meeting with Khimik Voskresensk. Last year’s semifinal series adds an extra edge to the matchup, so an open, high-scoring game looks unlikely. My pick is under 4.5 goals.
