Still, the visitors have reason to believe they can put up a fight-especially after their recent shock victory, which is sure to boost their confidence.

Match Results: Kirovo-Chepetsk
Prediction for the 1st period
Metallurg rarely let their opponents dictate the tempo early on. In their last five outings, no more than one goal has been scored in the opening 20 minutes. Given this trend, under 1.5 goals in the first period looks like a well-founded prediction, especially considering the hosts’ solid defensive play.
Total Goals Prediction
Olimpiya may be struggling for consistent results, but they rarely leave the ice without finding the net. The Kirovo-Chepetsk side have scored at least twice in each of their last seven outings, making the Olimpiya individual total over 1.5 goals an option worth considering. However, extending that streak against Metallurg will be a tough ask: the Novokuznetsk club are conceding just 1.17 goals per game on average.
Match Outcome Prediction
Olimpija have consistently struggled on the road, suffering seven regulation-time defeats in their last eight away fixtures. Their away form suggests they find it difficult to get results outside their home arena. Now they face Metallurg, a side known for their solid defensive play, so a regulation-time victory for Novokuznetsk looks like the most reasonable prediction here.
⭐️ Editorial Prediction
Metallurg rarely lets their games turn into high-scoring shootouts. Over their last 12 outings, the Novokuznetsk side have conceded an average of just 1.17 goals per game, with the under 4.5 total hitting in all of those matches. Even the opening periods tend to be cagey affairs: in five straight games, no more than one goal has been scored in the first period. These numbers make a strong case for backing a low-scoring contest here.
Olimpiya, meanwhile, have found the net at least twice in seven consecutive games, so you can’t completely rule out the visitors getting on the board. However, their away form tells a different story: Kirovo-Chepetsk have lost seven of their last eight on the road in regulation, averaging 2.4 goals for and 3.6 against per game. Facing a Metallurg side that specialises in shutting down opponents, maintaining that scoring pace will be tough. My pick is under 5.5 total goals.
Will this prediction come true?
