April 2nd, 15:00, Kremenchuk, Arena Iceberg. Broadcast: YouTube Setanta Sports
Series score – 1:2
After a day of rest, the teams will return to the Iceberg arena to determine with which score the series will return to Kyiv. Kremenchuk approached the third match in a cheerful mood after their victory on the opponent’s rink, but now the main goal of host team is to make the score in the series equal.
Among the good news for our team, we can admit the return of one of the main scorers of Capitals – Sevastian Karpenko, who served a one-match suspension. Meanwhile, Oleksandr Koida will be able to return to the ice in Kyiv.
At the same time, Kremenchuk also suffers a loss in defensive line-up. In the fourth game, Rasim Abdullaiev will not be able to help as he received a 5+20 penalty for fighting in previous match.
Another interesting fact about the line-up is who we will defend the hosts` goal: Eduard Zakharchenko, who spent most of the time in the play-offs and even scored a goal, or Kyrylo Kucher, who finished the third match in the goal.
Ultimately, the main task for the next game for the Kyiv team is to make one more step to the title. On the other hand, Kremenchuk will try to bring the series back to the capital with equal score.
