Amur vs Avangard: forecast for the KHL match
As part of the KHL regular season, a meeting between Amur and Avangard will take place on February 13. Khabarovsk residents are approaching this confrontation in a rather mediocre form and are on a series of two defeats, while Omsk residents had previously celebrated success in two matches in a row. The last match between the teams, which took place a few months ago, was an equal fight, but still ended in favor of the hawks. Is it worth betting on their success again? You will learn about this from our forecast
Command Analysis
Amur Khabarovsk
Russian FederationCurrent form
Amur is trying to retain the penultimate place in the Eastern Conference, as it cannot claim more than that this season. We emphasize that before this Khabarovsk residents did not have good and stable results. At best, they managed without a long series of defeats and enjoyed single victories. Recently, as a rule, the club has alternated successful matches with unsuccessful ones.
On the road, the Tigers lost to Avtomobilist (4:5), after which they literally defeated Barys (5:0) at home. It seemed that they could fight back against Siberia, but with the support of the home stands, they lost heavily to it - 1:5. In the Far Eastern derby, which took place just a week ago, Khabarovsk residents also failed to succeed and lost to their principal opponent in overtime with a score of 1:2. Tribute should be paid to the goalkeeper, Damir Shaimardanov, who parried a total of 44 shots in that match with the Vladivostok team. If it wasn't for his actions, the team would have lost by a few goals.
In general, in previous meetings, Viktor Kostyuchenka's squad usually relied on open hockey and used their moments well. As a rule, she opened up the opponents' defenses at least two or three times. It is also worth noting the game of Alex Galchenyuk, who scored goals in almost every match. By the way, the striker recently extended his contract with the club for two years, and this, of course, can be considered great news for Amur.
Disqualifications and injuries
Lee and Slepets will not be able to help their team in the upcoming match due to injuries.
Interesting betting trends
- Amur gets an average of 7.02 minutes of penalty time per match.
Khabarovsk residents are usually eliminated at least three or four times per game and do not have perfect discipline.
- Amur has a 34:74 ratio of dropped and missed goals in the second period.
The Tigers have a weak second period and are often inferior in it.
Avangard Omsk
Russian FederationCurrent form
Avangard is located on the sixth line of the Eastern Conference and has 62 points in its asset. The team lost too much in the first half of the season, so unfortunately, it cannot seriously claim to improve its position in the standings, because it is six points behind fifth place, but it can try to keep its current position under control.The O michi have been showing their best lately and have stopped alternating successful matches with defeats, gaining two wins in a row.
The Hawks dealt with Dinamo Minsk earlier on the road (5:4 B), lost to CSKA (1:2 B), and after that proved their superiority over Lada (2:1) and went for a short break. After returning from a break, they just went to the Far East, where they confidently defeated Admiral (5:2), scoring five goals. In that match with the Mariners, Omsk took advantage of their chances and regularly punished their opponent for defensive mistakes. That match was also successful for Nikolai Prokhorkin, who managed to score a double.
However, if we talk about the game, Avangard plays quite mediocre on the road and currently has only five wins in regular time. But Omsk residents have a great numerical advantage and currently have 25.2% of excess sales, which makes them second in the league in this indicator.
Disqualifications and injuries
Boikov, Grant, Boucher, MacLeod, Prokhorkin, Solovyov, Stepanov and Tkachev will not be able to help their team in the upcoming meeting.
Interesting betting trends
- Avangard gets an average of 6.69 minutes of penalty time.
Omsk residents are usually eliminated about three times per game.
- Avangard has a 50:49 ratio of dropped and missed goals in the second period.
The Hawks are having a good second twenty minutes and are playing a meaningful game on the far benches.
Trends
Bet 1st period: total more than 1.5 pucks
In two out of four matches between the clubs, the first period turned out to be productive.
1.95The 3rd periodbet: victory of Omsk
In three out of five meetings, Omsk achieved success in the third period.
2.25Tip and bets
In our opinion, Avangard is the clear favorite in this confrontation and must earn two points. The Hawks are in good shape and have dealt with similar opponents before without any problems. Amur, of course, tries well on the home arena, but it often loses within the regular time. In addition, most of the previous matches between the clubs ended in favor of the guests. Right now, Omsk needs points if they want to continue fighting to get into the top five, and they can't afford to lose them in a match with an outsider of the championship.
Forecast - Avangard's victory in 1.90
Betting on an individual total
In previous matches, Avangard was distinguished by a reliable defensive game and managed with less than three goals conceded. Amur, in turn, could not open the opponents' defenses more than once in the last two matches. By the way, in none of the previous five matches against Khabarovsk, the Hawks did not concede three times. It is likely that they will remain with the minimum number of missed goals this time.
We take Amur's individual total of less than 2.5 goals for 1.65
Bet on the total total
The previous matches between the teams were not particularly productive. This time, Avangard will also probably try to win the class and will not take much risk by not allowing the opponent to play open hockey. The last meeting between the clubs was held with only three goals scored. It is likely that this time we will see no more than five heads.
We bet on a total of less than 5.5 pucks for 1.82
