"Cupid"
Since the new season, the team has been led by Epanchitsev, who was called upon to establish discipline and dedication, but is not yet coping with his task in the best way. The composition of the team has changed dramatically, but the newcomers are not impressive yet. In the last matches, the Tigers looked bad, gave out a series of defeats, which was interrupted only in the last match by a victory over Neftekhimik 5:1.
"Torpedo"
The team got rid of a large number of legionnaires and went to rejuvenate the squad, failed the start, but after that slowly began to get out of the bottom. Larionov showed good work, who was able to build a reliable defensive game, with sharp and fast counterattacks. In the last games, Nizhny Novgorod gave out a series of defeats, which was interrupted by an away victory over Admiral.

Forecast
Torpedo looks like a small favorite in this confrontation, which has a stronger composition, although Amur will have the advantage of the home arena. The Tigers are in bad shape now and rarely win, but the visitors are on the move, so I believe in their victory.
