SKA have already secured not only a playoff spot, but also a win in the Western Conference. So now the team is just playing at their own pace, which has greatly improved their scoring in games against SKA (we've seen 42 goals in the last 5 games alone).
Sibir Novosibirsk also secured a playoff spot, but the team is now in a very tough race for first place in the Cheryshev division and the Eastern Conference. Overall for the season Siberia's performance is rather modest, but they have been scoring at least 5 goals lately, as in their head-to-head meetings with SKA.
Prediction: at least 5 goals to be scored. We recommend the "Over 4.5 + OT" bet, odds 1.53
