KHL. Before the match Barys – Neftekhimik 

Barys completes the home series with a duel with Neftekhimik.

A little more than a week has passed since the last meeting of these rivals in Nizhnekamsk. The team from the capital of Kazakhstan won back from 0:2 in that match and marked the beginning of its winning streak.

But «Neftekhimik» has in passive a six-game series of losses. In the last tour Oleg Leontyev’s team lost in the derby of Tatarstan «Ak Bars» - 2:5. The pucks of Denis Vihareva and Rafael Bickmullina did not affect the outcome of the match. The tutor of the Nizhnekam team complained about a lot of individual positional errors.

«Neftekhimik» has 35 points in its asset after 38 meetings to date, this is the tenth result in the standings of the East. The team's top scorer Marat Khairullin (27 points, 15+12) scored only one point in the last six matches. Defenders Kirill Vorobyov and Alexey Puzanov are on the injured list.

Jacob Lilja scored a double again, Egor Petukhov, Roman Starchenko scored once more (he reached the mark of 20 points for the season), Linden Wei, Cody Kunik and Matthew Frattin (he passed the 150-point mark in the KHL).
