Both teams bring their own strengths to the table: Zauralye excel on their home ice, thanks to solid performances in the opening periods, while Neftyanik rely on an aggressive strategy that often pays off.

In their last ten matchups, the team from Kurgan avoided defeat against Almetyevsk in seven encounters, which is an impressive record.
