Traktor - Barys: betting tip for the KHL match
On March 2, a meeting will be held between Traktor and Barys, in which bookmakers single out the hosts as clear favorites and leave almost no chance for Astana residents to succeed. Indeed, Chelyabinsk is the clear leader of the Eastern Conference, while the Leopards remain the main outsider of the championship. The last meeting between the clubs also ended in favor of the bears. Should I bet on their success this time? You will learn about this from our betting tip

Command Analysis

Traktor

Current form
Traktor leads the Eastern Conference table and currently has 84 points in its asset. The team has recently shown decent results and reserved most of the matches for themselves, making do with rare single defeats. As a rule, after an unsuccessful match, she gave out a series of two or three victories, so it is not surprising that even now she is ahead of the nearest pursuer in the person of a Motorist by three points.
Earlier on the road, Chelyabinsk proved their superiority over Amur (5:2), and already at home they dealt with Lada (4:1). However, in the confrontation with Neftekhimik, being the clear favorite, they unexpectedly lost with a score of 1:3, while scoring only one abandoned goal. Fortunately, in the next meeting with Ak Bars, the bears were able to pull themselves together and celebrated success with a score of 3:2. That match against Kazan turned out to be absolutely difficult, as the hosts had to fight back from 0:2, but they coped with this task with a bang and managed to bring the matter to a victorious end even before the onset of overtime.
Let's emphasize that in most of the previous matches, Benoit Groux's squad was distinguished by a decent defensive game and managed less than three missed goals. Tractor is still playing the third game most powerfully, in which it currently has a 73:51 ratio in goals scored and conceded, so it almost always opens the opponent's defense at least once during the decisive twenty minutes.
Disqualifications and injuries
The tractor currently has no problems with the composition.

The bears demonstrate high shooting activity and threaten the opponent's goal more than 30 times in almost every match.

Barys Nur-Sultan

Current form
Barys is located in the basement of the Eastern Conference standings and continues to lose match after match, which is why it is still four points behind Amur. The team has completely stopped pleasing the fans with victories and continues to lose match after match, while there is no progress in its game. As a rule, she was inferior to many rivals within the regular time. Her losing streak had already numbered eight matches, until she was still unable to break it in the confrontation with Lada.
Prior to that, the Leopards had a series of home matches. First, they lost to SKA (2:5) on their own ice, after which they lost to Lada (2:4) and lost to Metallurg (1:3). The club did not play the best way against Severstal either and lost heavily (2:6). Galym Mambetaliev's team went away in a mediocre mood, as they also managed to lose to Admiral with a score of 2:4, once again conceding four times, and they played poorly against Metallurg - 1:4. Fortunately, in the last match with Tolyatti, the team nevertheless came to its senses and was able to win in a tense struggle. Victoria won the shootout with a score of 3:2, and Andrey Shutov performed very reliably in that game and parried a total of 36 shots.
However, in general, Astana residents do not play well on foreign grounds, since up to this point they have been able to score only four victories within 60 minutes. The most disastrous performance of the team remains the second game period, in which he has a ratio of 27:69 in goals scored and conceded.
Disqualifications and injuries
Boyarkin, Savitsky and Mukhametov will not be able to participate in the upcoming match due to injuries.

Trends
Bet 1st period: total more than 1.5 pucks
In four out of five matches with the participation of the hosts, the first period turned out to be productive.
2.00The 3rd periodbet: Chelyabinsk victory
In four out of five meetings, Chelyabinsk achieved success in the third segment.
1.70Tip and bets
In our opinion, the Tractor should earn two points in this match without any problems. Chelyabinsk significantly outperform their opponent in the class and are now fighting to retain leadership in the Eastern Conference, while the Leopards no longer have the proper motivation. It is no coincidence that the Chelyabinsk team ended all the previous matches against Barys in their favor and succeeded with a difference of several goals. Plus, Mambetaliev's team is showing disastrous results on the road, so it is unlikely that they will be able to play reliably against the bears.
Prediction - Tractor wins with Asian handicap (-1.5) on pucks in 1.55
Betting on an individual total
Barys has been showing poor performance lately. As a rule, in matches with leaders, the guests differ by less than two goals scored. Chelyabinsk residents in most cases remain with the minimum number of goals conceded, and the goalkeepers have recently been doing a good job of their duties. We think that after a tough match with Lada, Barca will also not be able to score two goals.
We take Barys' individual total of less than 1.5 pucks for 1.80
Bet on the total total
It is likely that in this confrontation, Tractor will try to win the class and leave his strength for subsequent matches with more serious rivals. In addition, many meetings with Barys turn out to be grassroots, as the team tries to play defensively. The last two out of three matches between the clubs, which took place this season, also took place with fewer than six goals scored.
We bet on a total of less than 5.5 pucks for 1.70
