Eastern Conference winners Ak Bars Kazan showed a demonstration of power yesterday in the series opener against Neftekhimik Nizhnekamsk. In the end it was a clear 5-1 win. With his shorthander around "half time" only Yegor Milovzorov brought a bit of tension into this match.

If Ak Bars gets another favourite win or if Neftekhimik can surprise them, we'll see this afternoon.
Welcome. Game starts at 15:00 GMT / 16:00 CET.
