CSKA vs Dynamo Riga: what to expect?
CSKA were defeated in the first round of KHL. This Saturday they will host Dynamo Riga and look to bounce back. What to expect from this game? Our answer is in the prediction below.

Command Analysis

CSKA Moscow

CSKA started the new KHL season with the new head coach, Sergei Fedorov. The Army men played several test matches before the start of the season and haven't looked very impressive. They lost in the opening game of the league to Avangard, failing to score a single goal (0:4).
The Army men made 30 shots at the goal, but Avangard were never in real danger. Goalie Adam Reideborn looked lost and two of the goals were conceded as a result of his direct mistakes. In the upcoming fixture, the head coach might give a chance to Ivan Fedorov instead.

Dinamo Riga

In previous seasons, Dynamo Riga have always been at the bottom of the standings, and they have a massive disadvantage in class against their opponents. Despite this, Dynamo Riga had a good start to the season: they lost to Lokomotiv, but the game was quite close and intense, and Dynamo looked interesting (2:3).
In the first period, Dynamo had a comfortable advantage of two goals by the tenth minute. But they couldn't create anything else in attack for the rest of the game, and later conceded three goals in a row.

Tip and bets
CSKA looked unconvincing in the first game of the season and did not create anything interesting in attack. Dynamo Riga had a good match against Lokomotiv and were even close to success at the start of the game. We think that the Army men need more time to get in form and find their game, but so far they do not look like a team that can crush Dynamo.
Our prediction - Dynamo to win with Asian handicap (+2.5)
We don't believe that CSKA will be able to score a lot, but they won't let Dynamo control the game and score more than one goal. We predict few goals in this fixture and suggest betting on the total under.
Second wager - total under 5.5 goals.
