Command Analysis
Dinamo Minsk
BelarusCurrent form
Dynamo was in great shape for a long time and was able to earn a huge number of points, but the long rise was replaced by a natural decline, which continues to this day. After a series of defeats from three consecutive matches, Minsk residents were still able to break the series of failures by defeating Neftekhimik with a score of 5:1. The team played on the road, but this did not prevent it from realizing almost all its moments, and in particular, it is worth praising the striker Frost, who scored a double. Goalkeeper Demchenko also scored, reflecting 95% of shots, which did not allow the Wolves to even come close to a comeback. Returning to the home arena, the team faced a more serious opponent in the person of Avangard and was one step away from success, but still suffered an insulting defeat in a shootout (4:5). This time, Demchenko turned out to be less reliable.
Continuing to perform at home, the Bison faced a clear outsider, Sochi. Already at the beginning of the third period, the opponent seized a significant advantage of three goals, but the owners of the ice did not give up, but on the contrary increased the pace, which allowed not only to equalize the score, but also to win a landslide victory in regular time with a difference of two goals (5:3). The attacking line showed a great game, creating a huge number of dangerous moments in the opponent's zone. It is difficult to even single out any of the players, as many have distinguished themselves by their effective actions. However, it turned out to be impossible to consolidate the success of Dynamo. In the duel with Lokomotiv, performance problems arose, which eventually led to a "dry" defeat (0:2). It is worth noting that despite this decline, the club still confidently occupies a place in the playoff zone, with 61 points.

Lokomotiv Yaroslavl
Russian FederationCurrent form
Before the KHL break, Lokomotiv played a series of home matches, in which it showed mixed results. In the first match, the team faced Dynamo Moscow, and due to the excellent play of the defensive line, they managed to succeed, snatching Victoria in regular time with a one-goal difference (2:1). In particular, it is worth praising the efforts of goalkeeper Melnichuk, who reflected 96% of shots. It was expected that Yaroslavl would also be able to consolidate this success, but in the duel with Metallurg, they had to allow their opponent to earn a significant three-goal advantage, which they could not win back. Despite the large number of shots, the Railwaymen scored the first goal only in the middle of the third period, but it was already too late. The goalkeeper of the Majors did not prove himself, reflecting only 86% of shots.
Continuing to perform at home, Nikitin's team met with Spartak Moscow and played very poorly defensively, which is not typical for the team as a whole. The opponent constantly created and implemented dangerous moments in the attack, and as a result, he had to be defeated in regular time with a score of 4:5. This time, Melnichuk could not save the team from failure. As expected, the team was still able to rehabilitate itself in front of the fans for two defeats in a row, defeating Dinamo Minsk, taking advantage of its decline. The third period was decisive, in which Loko scored all his goals, realizing two numerical advantages. Yaroslavl is showing amazing results this season and currently occupies a leading position in the Western Conference table, where they are likely to remain until the end of the regular season, as they have a 13-point advantage over their nearest competitor.

1.87Tip and bets
As you can see, Dynamo has gradually begun to recover from the recession and is steadily earning points. The team performs especially well at home, where, with the support of the fans, it practically does not lose at all. But Lokomotiv often had problems with opponents of their own level before the break, even at home. Despite this, bookmakers do not believe in the success of the owners of the ice and give a very high coefficient for their victory, which is definitely worth taking advantage of. We believe that the Bison have a good chance of revenge, and we are betting in their favor, but for additional safety we take a double chance.
Our forecast is that Dynamo will not lose in 1.75
Bet on the total
Also, in the upcoming match, it is quite possible to expect a large number of abandoned goals. Yes, Lokomotiv's defensive line is one of the best in the league, but it's worth considering that Dynamo is playing an excellent offensive game at home, which will be a serious problem for Yaroslavl.
Forecast - total more than 4.5 goals in 1.88
Betting on the outcome of the first period
In the first period, Dynamo, due to the advantage of home walls, is quite capable of giving a worthy rebuff to Lokomotiv. We believe that the support of the home stands will allow Minsk residents not to lose in the opening segment.
Forecast - Dynamo will not lose in the first period for 1.50
