CSKA vs. Admiral: KHL Match Prediction
CSKA will play their first match at home this season and will face Admiral. The army team lost their debut match, so they are probably eager to rehabilitate themselves as soon as possible. The meeting with the Vladivostok team is an excellent opportunity to do so. However, it is certainly impossible to write off the sailors in this confrontation, since they have been earning points regularly before and are definitely not ready to lose in regular time. What is the best bet on this game? You can find the answer in our betting tip
Command Analysis
CSKA Moscow
Russian FederationCurrent form
CSKA looked good in the last tournament of the pre-season and even managed to win the trophy. Ilya Vorobyov, the head coach of the club, also liked the team's play, but he said that there was still a lot of work to do during the season. Indeed, so far the Muscovites' play looks rather raw and lacks a clear pattern. That is why they lost the first match to Spartak with a score of 2:4, although they had an advantage of one goal twice.
In that match, CSKA allowed their opponent too much in their own zone and allowed 38 shots on their goal, so it is not surprising that Ivan Prosvetov simply could not cope with such a load. Nevertheless, Vorobyov attributed the failure to a "curious goal", which, in his opinion, decided the outcome of the match.
Interesting trends for betting
- On average, CSKA takes 33 shots on target per match
The Army men have a pretty strong offensive line by league standards and often act as the first number, making a lot of shots
- According to statistics, the army team performs 16 power moves per game
Muscovites really don't like to play without the puck and try to meet their opponents harshly in order to get the projectile at their disposal
Estimated composition
Prosvetov, Gamzin, Patrikhaev, Klasson, Samorukov, Makarov, Provolnev, Okhotyuk, Nesterov, Afanasyev, Abramov, Poltapov, Karnaukhov, Drozdov, Dolzhenkov, Sorkin, Guryanov, Iskhakov, Mingachev, Okulov, Kamenev, Mamin
Admiral Vladivostok
Russian FederationCurrent form
Admiral failed to make it to the playoffs last season, but the club's management decided to give Leonid Tambiev another chance and keep him as head coach. Overall, the Vladivostok team started the season very well for themselves and earned three points in two matches. In the opening match, they dealt with Vityaz (3:2), and also made a full-fledged comeback against Kunlun, although they lost 4:5 in overtime. Incidentally, the match against Red Star was great for Egor Petukhov, who scored a hat trick.
By the way, even in the pre-season the club showed a good game in attack and created many dangerous moments at the opponent's goal, thanks to which it scored at least three goals on average. This is not accidental, because in the off-season Admiral strengthened the attack line and made a number of good transfers in its favor.
Interesting trends for betting
- On average, Admiral takes 30 shots per match
In previous meetings, the Vladivostok team was very active in the opponent's zone and created many dangerous moments near the opponent's goal.
- According to statistics, Admiral receives seven penalty minutes per game
Vladivostok residents try to play with discipline. Even in the last two matches they were not sent off more than three times
Estimated composition
Konovalov, Demchenko, Metalnikov, Nurgaliev, Ruchkin, Solyannikov, Shulak, Grman, Anohovsky, Rodewald, Petukhov, Shen, Zavgorodsky, Starkov, Fiore, Shevchenko, Mikhasenok, Gutik, Shmelev

2.00Tip and bets
"Admiral", in our opinion, can cause a lot of difficulties for the army team in the upcoming meeting. CSKA is still far from its ideal form and even in the pre-season did not have confident victories with a difference of several goals. Vladivostok is now in good form and is quite ready to fight back. As we remember, the previous matches between the teams, as a rule, were tense struggles with a slight advantage for the army team, so it makes sense to play a positive handicap.
Betting Tip - Admiral win with Asian handicap (+2) for 1.60
Bet on individual total
Admiral has strengthened its attack line this season. The team has started to create more dangerous moments and has improved its implementation. The army team has conceded at least two goals in three of the previous four games, while the Vladivostok team has scored a lot against both Vityaz and Kunlun.
We bet on the individual total of “Admiral” over 1.5 goals with a coefficient of 1.82
Bet on total
In previous games, CSKA failed in defense and conceded quite a lot, but in response, as a rule, scored at least three goals. The two previous games with the participation of the guests also passed with more than four goals. We think that in the first home game, the Muscovites will also try to please the fans with spectacular hockey.
We take the total over 4.5 pucks with a coefficient of 1.70
