🏒 Projected Lineups
Torpedo: Kulbakov - Konyushkov, Zhuravlev - Prince, Letunov, Firstov
Avtomobilist: Galkin - Blaker, Busygin - Macek, Da Costa, Denezhkin
🥅 Goalkeepers
Torpedo's goaltender Ivan Kulbakov has been making fewer starts recently, and there's a clear reason for it. The Belarusian averages just 90.5% save percentage and allows too many errors.
Avtomobilist's goalie Vladimir Galkin has gradually established himself as the team's top choice. A product of the local system, he has been working towards this status for years and is living up to expectations with a 94% save percentage. Impressive for the 25-year-old netminder.
Editorial Prediction
The visitors base their strategy entirely on the attacking prowess of their players. To put it simply, they relentlessly push forward, with defenders actively joining the offensive play in the opponent's zone. This approach carries certain risks, such as conceding goals, but they are unfazed by it here. As a result, at least five goals have been scored in 12 of Avtomobilist's last 14 away games. This trend is likely to continue in Nizhny Novgorod as well. Our bet is on over 4.5 goals.No comments
