Dynamo Moscow vs. Vityaz: KHL Match Prediction
On November 6, Dynamo Moscow will play a home match against Vityaz. The white-blues have a serious advantage in face-to-face meetings and definitely do not intend to lose on their home ice, especially after losing to Torpedo. The Bogatyrs showed rather mediocre results, so it is not surprising that the Muscovites are the favorites of the confrontation. Is it worth betting on their success? You will find out from the forecast
Command Analysis
HC Dynamo Moscow
Russian FederationCurrent form
Dynamo is currently among the top five clubs in the Western Conference and has 27 points. Of course, the current state of affairs cannot fully satisfy the club management and fans, since the team has great ambitions and initially planned to be at least in the top three. Dynamo can improve their position at any moment, since they are currently only four points behind third place. Plus, the white-blues have been regularly earning points in the last eight games, and this has not happened to them since the start of the season. It can be stated that they are currently in their best condition.
Dynamo had previously posted a series of three victories. They were able to deal with Avtomobilist (2:1) on the road, and at home they beat Amur (1:0) and Vityaz (2:1) with class. However, in the last match, Alexey Kudashov charges still could not cope with the incredibly motivated Torpedo and lost to them in a series of post-match throws with a score of 4:5.
It should be noted that Dynamo has seriously restructured itself and has become much better at working in its own zone, thanks to which it now often misses no more than one or two pucks. However, the Muscovites have also begun to spend much less time in attack and devote more time to physical struggle, which is why their efficiency has decreased.
Disqualifications and injuries
There are no injured or disqualified players on the team.
Interesting trends for betting
- In three of the last four matches, Dynamo conceded less than three goals
Muscovites have worked on their defensive play and are now conceding fewer goals than before
- According to statistics, Muscovites win 53.1% of faceoffs
Dynamo players keep most of the face-offs
Vityaz
Russian FederationCurrent form
Vityaz is in ninth place in the Western Conference and has earned 23 points so far. The team is actively fighting to gain a foothold in the playoff zone, but so far it has not been very successful. It cannot find stability and has not been able to win more than two victories in a row for a long period of time. Not long ago, the Bogatyrs lost to Spartak (1:2) and the same white-blues (3:4 OT) on the road, but in Minsk they celebrated success against the local Dynamo with a score of 4:1. It should be noted that they do not play most of their matches very effectively and demonstrate mediocre realization of their chances.
It is worth mentioning that Pavel Desyatkov team had a very difficult schedule, because in ten days they had to fly to Minsk twice, so after their return from there the players may not be in the best physical shape.
By the way, the worst part of Vityaz performance is the third game period, during which it significantly slows down and cannot distribute its forces correctly, because, for example, it plays the first twenty minutes at a high level and often scores goals in it. Also, this season, the club surprisingly makes good use of the numerical advantage and now has a 20.3% power play conversion rate, ranking ninth in the league in this indicator.
Disqualifications and injuries
Vaschenko and Yezhov will not take part in the match due to injuries.
Interesting trends for betting
- Vityaz has a 46.3% win rate on faceoffs
The Bogatyrs are rather mediocre at the point and do not have center forwards with good statistics in this area.
- On average, Vityaz allows 33 shots on goal
Desyatkov team spends a lot of time in defense and plays second fiddle
Trends
Bet 1st period: total under 1.5 goals
In four out of five matches between the clubs, the first period was unscoring
1.72Bet 3rd period: home team win
In three out of four matches, the white-blues beat their opponents in the third period
2.05Tip and bets
Dynamo looks stronger than its counterpart in many aspects. The teams have already met recently, and the white-blues were able to prove their superiority in regulation time. In general, the last four face-to-face meetings ended in favor of the home team within 60 minutes. Vityaz spent a lot of energy in the current away series, so it is unlikely to be in good physical shape. The Muscovites have seriously improved recently and have often begun to demonstrate high-quality hockey, which brings them results. Considering the difference in the class of the opponents, we suggest betting on the success of the formal favorite.
Prediction - Dynamo win for 1.65
Total Bet
The last two matches between the clubs ended with fewer than four goals scored. Dynamo also played most of the previous matches with a minimum number of goals scored. After four goals conceded by Torpedo, Alexey Kudashov team will probably try to play as reliably as possible in defense. Plus, many matches involving Vityaz also turn out to be "low". Given the current trend, we suggest taking the total under.
We take the total under 5.5 pucks with a coefficient of 1.67
Bet on individual total
This season, the teams have met twice, and in both cases, Vityaz was unable to score more than one goal. Most of the time, Dynamo has the initiative and acts as the first number, and the "bogatyrs" are simply unable to take advantage of their few moments that arise as part of counterattacks. In three previous matches out of four, Dynamo also managed with less than two goals conceded, so it makes sense to bet on the individual total of the guests.
We bet on the individual total of “Vityaz” under 1.5 goals for 2.35
