Torpedo vs Metallurg Mg Prediction KHL: 24.01

In the next round of the regular season of the KHL Torpedo will host a match with Metallurg, which will be held on the ice of the Nagorny Sports Complex in Nizhny Novgorod. Let’s see what to expect from these teams and try to predict the outcome for this match.

Torpedo

Nizhny Novgorod has shown an excellent game and a high-quality result recently, having won four times in five matches, including winning three consecutive victories at home. There is a chance to continue their success against Metallurg, which will not be the strongest opponent in the home series but can create problems due to the great attention to defence. True, Torpedo has shown that they are capable of playing for the result, primarily against Lokomotiv (3: 1) and Sochi (2: 1, OT).

Torpedo has no injuries and disqualifications, so all of the most reliable players will be able to play against Metallurg.

Metallurg Mg

The team from Magnitogorsk unsuccessfully starts the new year, having won only half of six matches held. Curiously, they all happened on their ice. While on the road, Magnitogorsk suffered three consecutive defeats. In the last two cases, Vorobyov’s squad lost to Traktor (1: 2) and Barys (3: 4).

Metallurg suffered nine defeats in the last eleven cases on the road. In the overall table of guest results, the team takes the penultimate place in the East, and only Amur is worse.

Torpedo vs Metallurg Mg prediction

Most of the matches between these teams have recently hit the highest performance indicators, in the last six games in a row scored a minimum of four goals, with a minimum of at least two on each side. Metallurg managed to win this shootout more often (three times), and Torpedo had the only victory in regular time. Our experts give preference to Torpedo, as a team that is clearly on the go and found a recipe for wins, which was not always available to this team at the start of the season. At the same time, we cannot ignore the factor of a fragile game of the Magnitogorsk in away matches in a match of approximately equal rivals. Therefore, if the “deer” do not crush the opponent in regular time, we will be shocked.
