Command Analysis

Amur Khabarovsk

Current form
Amur is located in the penultimate position of the Eastern Conference and has already moved away from the last line, ahead of Barys by literally three points. The team has improved a bit lately and has achieved victory more often than throughout the season. Indeed, she has not had such successful periods this year. Let's remind that before that Khabarovsk residents won three victories in five duels and dealt with quite powerful rivals.
So, even on their own ice, they managed to beat Ak Bars (5:4) and Magnitogorsk Metallurg (3:2B), and after a guest defeat from Torpedo (2:5), they again dealt with Magnitogorsk with a score of 3:2 in overtime. However, in the last confrontation with Avtomobilist, the Tigers still could not cope and lost to their opponent in the fight (4:5). They returned to the home arena absolutely charged with success and in the final confrontation with Astana celebrated Victory with a score of 5:0, for the first time since the beginning of the season they remained without conceding goals.
In general, Viktor Kostyuchenka's team plays well offensively and usually opens up the opponents' defenses at least twice, especially when performing in front of the home stands. However, the second half of the game is often not the best for him, and in it he has a ratio of 34:71 in goals scored and conceded. Also, do not forget that Amur does not use its numerical advantage well and currently has only 13.1% of excess sales.

Sibir Novosibirsk

Current form
Sibir is now in the playoff zone and is in the eighth position of the Eastern Conference. The team can feel quite comfortable, as they are seven points ahead of their nearest pursuer and are in pretty good shape right now. She goes undefeated in the main time and often earns points. So, the last time she conceded within 60 minutes was a little less than a month ago, and in three of the previous four meetings she celebrated success.
Novosibirsk had previously dealt with Traktor (4:3), Ak Bars (1:0), and after a not particularly successful match against Barys (3:4 OT), they pulled themselves together and proved their superiority over Admiral on the road with a score of 4:3 in overtime. At the same time, Vadim Epanchintsev's team improved their performance slightly and began to score at least two or three goals on average, although throughout the season he faced difficulties in creating and realizing chances.
Also, do not forget that Novosibirsk, unlike Amur, have a great numerical advantage and are still the best in the league in this indicator, currently having 27.9% of excess sales. We emphasize that Siberia is not playing the third twenty-minute game in the best way and has a 42:48 ratio in terms of goals scored and missed. By the way, the club is showing better results on the road than at home, and has already managed to win 13 victories in regular time.

1.57Tip and bets
In our opinion, Amur can claim two points in this confrontation. Khabarovsk residents have been showing good results lately and seem to have come to their senses. Siberia, of course, has often pleased fans with high-quality play, but it usually stumbles in matches with similar opponents. Plus, it is necessary to take into account the fact that the "snowmen" have a very difficult series of away matches, so they may not be in optimal physical shape. Based on this, with the support of the stands, the Tigers can succeed.
Forecast - Amur wins with a handicap (0) in 2.05
Betting on an individual total
Amur has been quite effective in previous meetings and has opened up the opponents' defenses at least two or three times. By the way, in four out of five matches against Siberia, Khabarovsk also scored at least three goals and took advantage of their chances quite well. Novosibirsk players concede more on the road than on their own ice, and as part of the current away sequence of games, they have already allowed their opponents to score three goals in three out of four matches.
We bet on the individual total of "Amur" more than 2.5 pucks for 2.00
Bet on the total total
It is likely that this confrontation will be effective, since Amur prefers to play on opposite courses and sometimes neglects defensive actions. The last matches with his participation turned out to be quite spectacular and took place with no less than five goals scored. Siberia, in turn, has also worked on its offensive game and has become much better at showing itself in the offensive zone. Based on this, we bet more on the total.
We take a total of more than 4.5 goals for 1.55
