Head-to-head statistics Amur Khabarovsk - Sibir Novosibirsk
Amur Khabarovsk Team Overview
Alexander Andriyevsky's squad appears to have adopted a pattern of alternating between successful and poor performances, even within a single away series. Nevertheless, it's hard not to notice the overall improvement in the team's effectiveness. They have secured four wins in their last six games. The only missing element is consistency over the long haul. However, Amur's main issue remains their relatively weak scoring record. They've managed to score just 91 goals, the lowest figure among the top-8 teams in the East. It's clear they need to improve in this area.

Sibir Novosibirsk Team Overview
The club from Novosibirsk seemed to realize the urgency of saving their season only after hitting rock bottom in the Eastern Conference standings. They underwent a radical transformation in December. Over the last nine matches, the team has secured six wins and only two regulation-time losses. This has allowed them to slightly improve their position in the standings, bringing them closer to the playoff spots in the conference. However, their play in their own zone still raises many concerns. They've conceded 131 goals, which is the worst record in this part of the standings.

🏒 Projected Lineups
Amur: Dorozhko - Evseev, Mishchenko - Petkov, Grachev, Urakov
Sibir: Krasotkin - Priskii, Zaitsev - Beck, Nekolenko, Wilson
🥅 Goalkeepers
Amur's goaltender, Maxim Dorozhko, remains one of the league's top performers in his position. The former Vityaz player boasts an impressive 92.9% save percentage and has recorded four shutouts. Crucially, he consistently avoids any significant lapses in form.
Sibir's netminder, Anton Krasotkin, continues to maintain a commendably high standard. The former Admiral player averages a 91.2% save percentage and has secured one shutout. However, this hasn't been quite enough for his team, largely due to the shortcomings of the outfield players.
Editorial Prediction
The hosts are firmly holding onto their spot in the Eastern Conference playoff zone and clearly have no intention of relinquishing it. Meanwhile, the visitors are eager to climb the standings and have been in impressive form recently. It's worth noting that most matches involving the team from Novosibirsk tend to be quite high-scoring affairs, with at least five goals scored in 10 of their last 11 games. We believe this trend is likely to continue, and our bet is on a total of over 4.5 goals.No comments
