Command Analysis
Dinamo Minsk
BelarusCurrent form
Dynamo continues its long home series, which started very successfully with a victory over the clear favorite CSKA. The Minsk team seriously picked up the pace in the third period, thanks to which they were able to make a comeback and take the game into overtime, where they ultimately won with a score of 5:4. First-line forward Shipachev showed excellent hockey, scoring a goal and also giving two assists. Then the team fought Metallurg and this time could not realize its attack at all, losing dry (0:2).
The Minsk team managed to rehabilitate themselves in front of the fans in a match with a less serious competitor in the person of Neftekhimik, winning confidently with a difference of three goals (4:1). Once again, the attacking line played very actively, and in total they managed to make 38 shots on target. It was expected that Dynamo would continue to perform in the same spirit and cope with Barys without any problems, but this did not happen. Kvartalnov charges looked much better than the Kazakhs, but they were seriously let down by the implementation of attacking moments, of which there were plenty. All this led to a defeat in regular time with a score of 1:2.
Disqualifications and injuries
Dynamo does not have any serious losses, but it is still worth noting that Pavel Denisov, Andrey Kareyev and Andrey Stas will not play in the upcoming match.
Interesting trends for betting
- Dynamo concedes an average of 2.35 goals per match
This season, the Minsk team has been distinguished by its fairly reliable defensive play and rarely lets in many goals.
- The Bisons allowed just five goals while shorthanded.
The club hallmark is its very confident play in the minority, and at the moment the team is the best in this indicator in the league.
Vityaz
Russian FederationCurrent form
Vityaz has completed a four-game home series that was not the most successful, but such a result is optimal. The team faced very serious opponents and in the first match won against the leader of the Western Conference, Lokomotiv, with a score of 2:1. The main hero of the meeting was goalkeeper Doroshko, who repelled 43 shots out of 44. However, in the second match with Avtomobilist, the goalkeeper efforts were not enough, which led to a defeat (1:3). The Bogatyrs played more actively in attack, but their shot execution let them down, which the team has had problems with throughout the season.
Next, the Podolsk team faced an equally formidable opponent in the form of Metallurg, which they once again managed to sensationally beat, and without a win (2:0). Once again, Doroshko made a greater contribution to the success, this time reflecting all the shots, having already made his third shutout of the season. Vityaz played worst of all against St. Petersburg SKA, suffering a crushing defeat with a score of 1:8. The defense played extremely poorly, allowing their goalie to be shot at from all angles.
Disqualifications and injuries
Vityaz continues to play with almost its full fighting strength, and of the injured players, only defender Grigory Vaschenko remains.
Interesting trends for betting
- On average, Vityaz takes 27 shots per match
The Bogatyrs mainly rely on the defensive line and do not show the most aggressive play in attack.
- Podolsk residents receive an average of 8.5 penalty minutes per match
The team also does not play the most disciplined game and breaks the rules quite often.
Trends
Bet First Goal: "Vityaz"
In four out of six head-to-head matches, Vityaz opened the scoring
2.30Goal in each period bet - yes
In four of the six head-to-head matches, the teams scored a goal in each period.
1.60Tip and bets
Dynamo is the clear favorite in the upcoming match, which is quite strange. The team does not show the best game at home and consistently loses points, even in matches with outsiders, as was shown by the match with Barys. Vityaz, in turn, played several matches with very strong competitors and in most of them was able to give a worthy rebuff, and sometimes even beat them. In face-to-face meetings, everything is also ambiguous, the "heroes" do not win so often, but defeats happen very rarely, which means there is an excellent opportunity to take advantage of the odds and bet in favor of the guests.
Our prediction is a victory for Vityaz with a handicap of (+1.5) goals for 1.70
Bet on total
The teams are unlikely to score many goals in the upcoming match. Both clubs have had problems with both creating and converting attacking chances since the start of the season, and the situation is unlikely to change significantly in such a short period of time.
Forecast - total under 5.5 goals for 1.74
Bet on the outcome of the first period
“Dynamo”, due to its slight advantage over its opponents, as well as the advantage of home walls, still has a good chance of winning in the opening period.
Forecast - Dynamo win in the first period with a handicap (0) for 1.50
