Command Analysis
Avangard Omsk
Russian FederationCurrent form
It's hard to say when Avangard's natural decline will begin, but so far the team is in amazing shape, which allows it to beat all opponents in its path. The team had an excellent away series, which ended with the defeat of the obvious outsider in the person of Amur with a score of 7:1. At the end of the second period, Omsk had a three-goal advantage, and in the final twenty minutes they left no chance at all for Khabarovsk. After returning to the home arena, Avangard faced one of the most serious rivals, Ak Bars. The team managed to take advantage of the opponent's weak form and won a landslide victory with a score of 6:2. The key role in the team's success was played by its attacking line, which demonstrated the highest level of skill. However, do not forget about the great game of goalkeeper Andrey Serebryakov, who blocked 34 of 36 shots.
Continuing to perform in their native walls, the team fought with another opponent of their level, in the person of Metallurg. This time, the attacking line played much more modestly, but this did not prevent it from achieving the desired result (2:1). Goalkeeper Serebryakov proved himself once again, reflecting 96% of shots, confirming his excellent form. Next, the Avant-garde held a return duel with Cupid and it seemed that they would be able to defeat the outsider again, but difficulties arose with the realization of the moments in the attack. As a result, they still managed to hold the advantage and snatch Victoria in regular time with a score of 2:1. Thanks to such successful performances, the club will soon receive an early ticket to the playoffs, but for now it occupies the sixth place in the Western Conference table.

Vityaz
Russian FederationCurrent form
Vityaz continues to be in poor shape and is having a hard time earning points. The team played an away series of three matches, which ended unsuccessfully, although it had every chance of success. Podolsk fought against an opponent of their own level, in the person of Kunlun, but due to the goalkeeper's poor performance, the opponent was able to show all his attacking potential. The guests tried to compensate for the disadvantage by being very active in attack, but they still managed to make a comeback and put the game into overtime. As a result, it came to a shootout, in which they still had to suffer an insulting defeat (4:5). Returning to their home arena, the heroes faced off against a much more serious opponent, Dinamo Minsk, and suffered the expected defeat (2:4). Goalkeeper Kareev tried his best, but could not cope with a huge number of shots.
Continuing to perform in their native walls, Desyatkov's wards, to the great surprise of all hockey fans, won a landslide victory over the obvious favorite, Salavat Yulaev (3:1). Vityaz showed a very active game in attack, but the puck stubbornly did not fly to the target, and only in the third period it began to turn out to realize dangerous moments in the opponent's zone. The club scored the last two goals three minutes before the final whistle. However, Podolsk residents could not consolidate their success again. In the next match, Avtomobilist had problems both creating and implementing attacking chances, which led to a setback (1:2). It is worth noting that the team has already lost all chances of reaching the playoffs, as there is very little left until the end of the regular season, and the gap from the eighth position is 15 points.

It is hard to believe that the Knight in the upcoming duel is able to impose a worthy struggle on such a powerful opponent. Indeed, Avangard has gained amazing form and is clearly striving to take a place higher in the Eastern Conference table, which means they will not underestimate their opponent.

So we advise you not to take any chances and make a confident bet in favor of the owners of the ice.
