Amur vs Avtomobilist: forecast for the KHL match
On February 15, Amur will find out the relationship on its ice with Avtomobilist. Khabarovsk residents are outsiders in this confrontation and are currently on a three-game losing streak, so they are unlikely to be ready to fight back against such a powerful opponent. However, the Yekaterinburg team also suffered two defeats in a row after a long winning streak. What is the best bet to make on this confrontation? You can find out about this from our forecast

Command Analysis

Amur Khabarovsk

Current form
Amur is still in the penultimate position of the Eastern Conference and clearly does not want to finish in last place during the regular season. It should be noted that prior to this, Khabarovsk residents did not have good and stable results. At best, they managed without a long series of defeats and enjoyed single victories. However, at the moment the club is on a series of three failures.
Earlier, the Tigers lost to Avtomobilist (4:5) on a visit, 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 derby with Admiral, Khabarovsk also could not cope and lost in overtime with a score of 1:2. Amur was completely unprepared for the confrontation with Avangard, which took place after the break, as it lost with a rout (1:7), allowing the opponent to score seven goals.
In general, such major defeats are inevitable, since Viktor Kostyuchenka's squad usually plays open hockey and tries to operate exclusively on opposite courses. As a rule, she opened up the opponents' defenses at least two or three times, but she also misses a lot in response. By the way, the club usually concedes at least three or four goals on its ice.
Disqualifications and injuries
Amur currently has no problems with the composition.
Interesting betting trends
- Amur gets an average of 6.96 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 35:76 ratio of dropped and missed goals in the second period.
The Tigers have a weak second period and are often inferior in it.

Avtomobilist Yekaterinburg

Current form
Avtomobilist currently occupies the fourth place in the Eastern Conference table and has 71 points to its credit. The team has been showing great results since the beginning of this year and previously had an incredible winning streak. Let's remind that she was successful in 11 fights in a row and often achieved success within the regular time, although she won with a minimal difference in the score. However, the successful period was overshadowed by two defeats.
After away wins over Lada (4:2) and Kunlun (2:1 OT), Yekaterinburg still stumbled in the confrontation with Ak Bars (1:4), and then they could not cope with Admiral (3:4 OT). In both cases, Nikolay Zavarukhin's team demonstrated mediocre defensive play and allowed the opponents to score at least three times. We emphasize that in such meetings, Avto has always had problems, because if he misses a lot, he often concedes, because in response he scores quite a bit. So, on other people's grounds, the club usually makes no more than two or three goals.
The most successful performance of the Ural team is the third game segment, in which they have a 58:39 ratio in scoring and conceding goals. The main scorer in the squad by a wide margin remains Stefan da Costa, who earned a total of 48 points in the goal +pass system. It is noteworthy that the striker has not been without effective actions on the court in the last 11 meetings.

1.70Tip and bets
Amur is, of course, considered an outsider in this confrontation, but this does not mean at all that it will not be able to impose a tight fight on its opponent. Avtomobilist is not in its best shape at the moment and has not been successful in recent matches within regular time. In addition, all previous meetings between the clubs were held in an equal struggle and ended with a minimal difference in the score. It is likely that Viktor Kostyuchenko's team will pull itself together after the defeat from Avangard and will be able to bring the matter at least to overtime.
Forecast - Amur will not lose in 1.87
Betting on an individual total
Amur completely failed in defense in the last match and showed a terrible game in their own zone. Khabarovsk residents usually pull themselves together after such matches and try to play as reliably as possible in defense. By the way, Avtomobilist was left with only one abandoned puck in two of the three matches. We think that Auto is not playing so perfectly offensively as to score three or four goals in this confrontation.
We bet on the individual total of "Auto" less than three washers for 1.72
Bet on the total total
Previous matches between the clubs, as a rule, were not very productive and ended with less than six goals scored. Both teams are on a losing streak, so they won't take unnecessary risks. First of all, that Amur and Avtomobilist will monitor their actions on the defensive. Most likely, we will witness a small number of goals in this match.
We take a total of less than 5.5 pucks with a coefficient of 1.70
