Izstal have been struggling at home recently, losing four consecutive matches. This suggests certain issues with their offense and power play. Meanwhile, Khimik are showing solid defensive performances, which keeps them among the tournament favorites. Considering the general trend of low-scoring games involving Khimik on the road, we suggest betting on under 5.5 goals. This bet has hit in six straight away games for the team from Voskresensk.No comments
