"Zvezda" - "Tambov": forecast for the VHL match
On December 22, Zvezda will host Tambov at the CSKA Arena in Moscow. Last season, the hosts made it to the Petrov Cup playoffs and intend to compete in knockout matches this championship. However, they have not been showing a very confident game lately and have left the top 16 teams in the league at this stage of the competition. Will the hosts be able to win and what bets will they play in the match? The answer is in our forecast
Command Analysis
Zvezda Chekhov
Russian FederationCurrent form
At the start of the championship, Zvezda showed brilliant results, won eight victories in a row and was the leader of the VHL. However, Rinat Khasanov charges slowed down and gradually fell to the middle of the tournament table, showing not quite confident and convincing results. At this stage, the team from Moscow cannot find its game, suffered seven defeats in 10 past matches, left the playoff zone, occupies the 18th line in the tournament table and lags behind the TOP-16 only by additional indicators. However, the team position is very shaky, since the catchers are not lagging behind and are nipping at their heels. In the past confrontation, the "army men" met on their ice with the "condors" from Rostov-on-Don and won only in overtime, ending the regular time of the match with a fighting draw 2:2. The team was unable to resist Tula AKM in the previous game, losing 3:6 in the end. In 37 encounters, the CSKA farm club won 19 victories, 12 of which were in regulation time, and there were also quite a few defeats - 18 failures. The Muscovites scored 116 goals and missed 108 goals.
Interesting trends for betting
- Since the start of the season, Zvezda has scored an average of three goals
- The team lost to its opponent in its last two home matches
HC Tambov

This season, the club had a poor start to the championship, but gradually gained momentum and is currently in the playoff zone and looks on par with opponents of a higher class. The team shows meaningful hockey, fights at the proper level, intends to not lose face in the regular championship in front of their fans and fight in the knockout matches. In the last home meeting, Alexey Fetisov charges beat Omskie Krylia, where they scored two goals in the second period and the decisive goal into an empty net, and were able to keep their goal intact - 3:0 in the end. The team was able to cope with Kurgan Zauralye in the previous game, winning with a score of 3:1. Tambov won 19 victories in the championship, scored 100 goals, but lost 17 matches with 84 goals conceded. At this stage, the team from Tambov has 44 points, ahead of the TOP-16 teams by only two points and has a good chance of making the playoffs.

3.25Tip and bets
In this confrontation, bookmakers put the hosts as the favorites, but the club from Tambov intends to continue winning on the opponent ice against Zvezda. Tambov shows confident play from match to match and will cause many problems for the home team. We believe that Alexey Fetisov team will use its experience and is capable of getting at least a draw.
Forecast - Tambov will not lose with odds of 1.75
Bet on total
This pair is expected to play on opposite courses with a large number of scoring opportunities. However, the opponents have not been scoring very many goals lately, and Tambov has finished the last three matches in a row with a total under. We believe that there is no point in counting on a goal extravaganza.
Forecast - total under 4.5 goals with odds of 2.15
Bet on individual total
"Tambov" in the last five matches scored three goals on average and showed excellent play in attack. We can assume that the Tambov club will score more than two goals to its opponent, since it has not scored less in two matches in a row.
Forecast - Tambov individual total is more than two goals for 1.70
