		Traktor didn´t play well last games before the break of national games and because of it is still the second. Yekaterinburg played even worse - during 5 last games added only 2 points.
		The battle of these teams should be clear. The difference between them is vast 57 points. Yekaterinburg is currently even the worst team of KHL and nobody could take this position instead them.
		Home Traktor is fighting angainst Kazan, which is actually first, for the first place after all rounds of the Kharlamov´s division. And if Chelyabinsk wants to make the thee-point-shortage disaperar, can not lose any points.
		Welcome. Game starts at 14:00.
