Face-to-face matches between the clubs have also often been in favor of the Tigers.

We’ll tell you about it in the betting tip

Command Analysis

Amur Khabarovsk

Current form
This season, Amur has a strong roster and is capable of fighting not only for the playoffs, but also showing itself in the elimination matches. It should be noted that at the start the team was stuck and suffered two defeats in a row, but after that it pulled itself together and defeated Barys (5:1), and consolidated its success in the confrontation with Avangard (3:2 SO), making a classy comeback. Devin Brosseau scored the most goals, scoring three in total.
Overall, with such an attack line, Andrey Martyemyanov's team should score a lot in each game. However, Amur should improve its power play, as the club currently has only a 6.7% power play conversion rate.
Disqualifications and injuries
Ilya Talaluev (injury)
Interesting trends for betting
- Amur receives an average of six minutes of penalty time per match
Khabarovsk residents try to play with discipline and not give their opponents extra chances to score
- Khabarovsk wins 43.4% of faceoffs
Amur has problems at the point and does not have center forwards who are trained for faceoffs

HC Red Star Kunlun

Current form
Kunlun is also unlikely to become one of the main outsiders this season, since its roster is not as bad as last season. The team has clear leaders, including Nail Yakubov, who has already scored three goals. However, after successful matches against Dynamo and Admiral, Red Star lost twice on home ice to both Severstal (2:4) and Lokomotiv (2:6). The club still has problems with its defense, but they have become much stronger in attack, so it is likely that in the future it will try to play on opposite courses.

In the last two matches, the visitors lost in the second period
2.25Tip and bets
"Amur" looks preferable against "Kunlun". "Red Star" lost in the two previous matches and looked rather mediocre. Khabarovsk residents have always played well at home, and in the first match in front of their home stands they will probably give their best. Moreover, it is necessary to take into account that it will be very difficult for "Kunlun" to play after a long flight.
Prediction - Amur win for 1.80
Bet on individual total
Kunlun is not known for its reliable defense and is used to oncoming hockey, so its goal net often contains at least three or four pucks. The Tigers have a strong attack line and, with the support of their fans, should definitely score at least three pucks.
We take the individual total of “Amur” more than 2.5 goals with a coefficient of 1.60
Bet on total
The upcoming match promises to be bright and rich in goals. The teams have missed a lot in previous meetings, and besides, they both play attacking hockey, so it is quite likely that we will see at least six goals.
We bet on total over 5.5 goals with odds of 2.10
