As part of one of the matches of the semifinal tournament of the KHL all-stars, the players of the Kharlamov Division and the Chernyshev Division will play against each other. On whose side will the victory be in this meeting? LiveResult.Ru gives a forecast for this game.
Kharlamov Division
Kharlamov's division does not perform well in the KHL All-Star Matches. A more or less decent game was in 2019, when they managed to beat the Tarasovites with a score of 8:7. But that was a duel for third place. In the other two cases, the team invariably took the last place in the tournament. Coach Ilya Vorobyov, who won the Gagarin Cup in 2016, and last season remained a step away from the cherished goal, undertook to correct the situation. He will be helped by the captain of "Magnitogorsk" Yakovlev, forward Goldobin and the young talent of the Chancellors. In addition, Proskuryakov, Sergey Telegin and Burdasov will try to stand out.
Chernyshev Division
Chernyshev's Division is the winner of the first KHL All-Star game in the modern format. It happened back in 2017, and in 2019 it turned out to be a repeat success. As for the last performance of the team, it was able to take third place, defeating Kharlamov's Division in the consolation final. Now the team will be mentored by Viktor Kozlov, who is spending a full season as a mentor for the first time. His Ufa "Salavat Yulaev" does not look so great, but it is gradually gaining momentum. His players, goalkeeper Kareev and forward Khmelevsky, were invited to the All–Star Match. Special attention is paid to the best player of the Gagarin Cup-2021 Tolchinsky.
Forecast I am sure that Kharlamov's Division will be able to win this meeting.
I'll take a chance and take the victory of the nominal hosts, taking into account overtime and a shootout. The quote for this event is likely to play.
