Command Analysis

Avangard Omsk

Current form
Avangard has completed a short away series of two games, which it started quite successfully. In the first match, the team met with one of the league outsiders, Amur, and won with a minimal advantage of one goal (2:1). What is noteworthy is that the Omsk team showed a very weak attack, and the opponent was able to make twice as many shots at the goal, but thanks to the efforts of goalkeeper Khomchenko, they managed to avoid problems and earn important points. Indeed, this season the team has serious problems both with creating and converting moments in attack, and on average it scores only 2.3 goals per match, which is why it is difficult to achieve the desired results.
The Hawks were unable to consolidate their success, and in the match with Admiral they again failed to fully realize their attacking potential, losing in overtime (2:3). Avangard should have suffered a defeat in regulation time, but they transferred the game to overtime thanks to a goal scored just two seconds before the final whistle. Returning to their home arena, Zvyagin team played a duel with a more serious competitor and snatched victory from St. Petersburg SKA (2:1). Goalkeeper Khomchenko once again showed an excellent game, reflecting 33 shots out of 34. It is worth noting that the Army Men are currently in a serious decline, which allowed them to achieve success.
Disqualifications and injuries
Avangard still has problems with its roster. Goalkeeper Berdin, defender Stepanov and forward Zlodeev will not be able to participate in the upcoming match.
Interesting trends for betting
- On average, Avangard scores 2.3 goals per match
Omsk still can’t cope with their main problem and rarely realize their attacking potential.
- The Hawks converted 25% of their power play attempts.
But Avangard plays well with a one-player advantage and quite often takes advantage of opponents’ penalties.

HC Dynamo Moscow

Current form
Dynamo played at home for a long time, where they showed mixed results. The home series began in a match with Vityaz, in which they managed to win without any problems in regulation time (2:1). The defensive line made a big contribution to the success, not allowing the opponent to realize their attack, and in particular, goalkeeper Motorygin should be praised, who reflected 95% of the shots. However, in the second match they failed to consolidate their success, Torpedo turned out to be much more powerful than the Podolsk team, for which the Muscovites seemed not quite ready, which ultimately led to a defeat in a shootout (4:5). Despite the lost points, it is worth praising forwards Wil and Gusev, who scored three points each.
In the return match with Vityaz, the "white-blues" did not play so reliably in defense, but, despite this, achieved another success due to the efforts of the attacking line (4:3). Gusev distinguished himself again, scoring a goal and giving an assist. This time, Dynamo again tried to show a very active game in attack, although it was not so easy to beat the Togliatti goalkeeper. It came to overtime, where they had to lose (2:3). In general, the team has pleased fans with successful results this season and is currently in fifth place in the Western Conference table, although the gap to the leadership is still large.
Disqualifications and injuries
Dynamo has no problems with its roster. All players are fit and the infirmary remains empty.
Interesting trends for betting
- On average, Muscovites receive 9.6 penalty minutes per match
Dynamo have had discipline issues throughout the season, which has prevented them from showing their full potential.
- The "white-blues" conceded 18 goals while shorthanded
A large number of penalties often leads to goals conceded while short-handed, and as a result, losses.

2.07Tip and bets
Avangard is an underdog in the upcoming match, despite the fact that it will be playing at home. The team has had a hard time earning points throughout the regular championship, which cannot be said about its opponent. It is also worth noting that the Hawks do not always take advantage of their home walls and often suffer failures in front of their stands. At the moment, Dynamo is not in its best shape, but even so, the team looks much more reliable, so we suggest not taking risks and betting in favor of the Muscovites.
Our prediction is Dynamo victory in the match for 1.75
Bet on total
In the upcoming match, you shouldn't expect a large number of goals scored. Avangard will again try to play as reliably as possible in defense, since there are problems with the attacking line.

Forecast - total under five goals for 1.85
