Spartak vs. Dynamo Moscow: KHL Match Betting Tip
Spartak will face Dynamo Moscow on September 12 as part of the KHL championship. The red-and-whites have won two of three matches, but the white-blues are not doing so well. All the recent matches between the teams were evenly contested, and most of them ended outside of regular time. That is why bookmakers were unable to determine the favorite for this match and set equal odds. However, our team will try to make the most of it and present an accurate betting tip and offer a bet on this confrontation

Command Analysis

Spartak Moscow

Current form
Spartak is playing a long home series and certainly wants to squeeze out as many points as possible. Of course, the red-and-whites have already stumbled in the match against Sochi (1:2 SO), but in the other two games against CSKA (4:2) and Minsk Dynamo (5:2) they celebrated success, so they have already managed to gain confidence in their abilities. The red-and-whites' attack works like clockwork. In the last match against the "bisons", the Muscovites made a comeback from 0:2 precisely thanks to their classy attack, making a total of 36 shots.
So far, Mikhail Maltsev stands out among all the players according to statistics, having managed to score three goals and make one assist. As a rule, Zhamnov's team had been playing hard in the final twenty minutes, scoring three unanswered goals in total.
Interesting trends for betting
- Spartak averages 36 shots
The red and whites are used to playing first even against top clubs and making a lot of shots
- Spartak has only a 15.4% conversion rate on extra man power
At the start of the season, Muscovites have problems with the majority
Estimated composition
Rybar, Kulikov, Maryshev, Savikov, Vishnevsky, Orlov, Tchaikovsky, Bychkov, Mironov, Maltsev, Pivchulin, Morozov, Ruzicka, Poryadin, Galimov, Pashin, Bitten, Goldobin, Loktionov, Prince, Rubtsov

HC Dynamo Moscow

Current form
Dynamo has many problems at the start of the season. Many of them are related to the defense, but the team is not playing as well in attack as its fans would like. Let us recall that in two of the previous three matches it suffered defeats from Kunlun (1:3) and Lada (3:6), and was only able to beat Severstal (3:1). Let's be honest, the white-blues should have beaten such opponents in any case, but so far the game of Kudashov's team is not going well at all.
The Dynamo players are currently playing very chaotic hockey without a clear idea. This was confirmed by the coach himself at the press conference after the match in Tolyatti, calling the game "unstructured and scattered". The head coach also has questions for the hockey players regarding their dedication. However, the team should definitely not have any problems with motivation in the upcoming derby.
Interesting trends for betting
- Dynamo wins 61.6% of faceoffs
The blue-and-whites have performed well at the point in the last three matches and have taken most of the faceoffs
- Dynamo blocks an average of 20 shots per match
This huge figure is due to the fact that the team plays poorly on defense and is literally forced to block shots on a regular basis.
Estimated composition
Trends
Bet 1st period: total over 1.5 goals
In three out of five matches between the clubs, the first period was productive
1.95Bet 2nd period: both teams to score
In three of the five meetings between the clubs, both teams scored goals in the second period
2.35Tip and bets
We think that it makes sense to give preference to the home team in this match. Spartak showed itself better in previous matches, and Dynamo looked mediocre against rather weak opponents. In addition, Spartak already managed to beat the white-blues during the preseason. Also, do not forget that Zhamnov's team depends on the home arena and performs much better with the support of its stands. That is why we suggest betting on Spartak's success.
Prediction - Spartak wins the match for 1.90
Bet on total
In this match we expect to see at least six goals scored. The previous matches between the teams were played in an open style, and the clubs acted on opposite courses. Spartak plays exclusively from the attack, and Dynamo also has a powerful attack line, but has a lot of problems in defense. Based on this, we expect productive hockey.
We bet on total over 5.5 goals for 2.05
Bet on individual total
Spartak promotes an attacking style of play and scored at least three times in two out of three matches. The Red-Whites will definitely get their chances and should take advantage of the weakness of Dynamo's defense. We suggest betting on at least three goals from the hosts.
Betting Tip - Spartak's individual total over 2.5 goals for 1.75
