Dynamo Moscow - Lokomotiv: betting tip for the KHL match
On March 7, the next meeting between Dynamo and Lokomotiv will take place in Moscow. The teams recently played against each other in Yaroslavl, and then Alexey Kudashov's wards turned out to be stronger than the opponent. The railwaymen no longer have serious motivation for the rest of the regular season, while the blue and white team really needs points and they continue to fight for second place in the West. The hosts have won four matches in a row, but the locomotives are also in good shape. Which of the teams will be better? This is stated in the betting tip for the confrontation
Command Analysis
HC Dynamo Moscow
Russian FederationCurrent form
Dynamo has settled into the second position in the conference table and is trying to gain a foothold, but the competition in the West is very high. Alexey Kudashov's team scored 81 points in 61 games and, after a poor start to the season, improved in terms of reliability, regularly scoring points. The Blue and white team have gained excellent form in the new year and have lost only six times since its beginning. The hosts have now won four in a row. The Muscovites started the series with successes in Yaroslavl (3:1) and St. Petersburg (1:0), and after returning home they were stronger than Kunlun (6:3) and Avtomobilist (4:1). Now the capital club just needs to stay in second place in the table and not lose.
The Blue and white scored only 14 accurate shots in the previous five games. They were quite confident in their previous matches on their ice and scored ten goals in the last two meetings. Nikita Gusev remains the leader of the home team's attack with 59 points (24+35) in the goal+pass system. He is currently second on the goalscoring list, but he is unlikely to be able to beat Joshua Livo.
Maxim Motorygin took to the ice at the start in the last four matches and was very good. The young goalkeeper may well displace the more experienced Vladislav Podyapolsky from the base, especially since the second did not enjoy a stable game in February. The Dynamo graduate has blocked 92.88% of shots and made four shutouts in 36 games this season.
Disqualifications and injuries
Brannan Menell will not play against Yaroslavl.
Interesting betting trends
- Dynamo scores 3.02 goals per game
The hosts are playing great offensively and scoring quite a lot this season.
- Dynamo gets 7.28 minutes of penalty time
Blue and white are eliminated more than three times per game on average.
Lokomotiv Yaroslavl
Russian FederationCurrent form
Loko will definitely finish the regular season as the winner of the Western Conference. Igor Nikitin's team has demonstrated a high level of play throughout the season and scored 93 points in 62 starts. Even now, the guests continue to win, although they have no significant tournament motivation and they are likely to bring the Continental Cup to Yaroslavl. The Volzhans have had a slight decline since the end of January, but now the Yaroslavl club has four wins in five games. After a 1-3 home defeat by Dynamo, Alexander Yelesin's squad went on a guest tour. She easily took two points in Sochi (4:2), and a day later easily defeated Severstal (5:0) in Cherepovets.
Playing offensively is not the Railwaymen's strong suit, but they have scored 15 goals in the last five games. Artur Kayumov continues to be the sole leader of the visitors' attack with 41 points (21+20). The striker is in good shape and scored in the last two matches. There is concern about the injury of Maxim Shalunov, who often completes scoring chances and has excellent performance, plus or minus.
Not so long ago, Daniil Isaev returned to the ranks, who was the main goalkeeper of the Locomotive throughout the regular season. The 25-year-old goalkeeper scored a shutout in the game against Severstal and this season he has 92.56% of saves. A great contribution to the success of the club is made by the defenders of the team, who regularly block shots and do not allow them to shoot at their own goal.
Disqualifications and injuries
Maxim Shalunov will not come with the team to Moscow.
Interesting betting trends
- The locomotive gets 6.6 minutes of penalty time.
The Volzhans play extremely disciplined and are rarely eliminated more than three times per match.
- The guests can shoot at their own goal no more than 22 times per game.
Lokomotiv plays great defense and prevents opponents from attacking their possessions.
Trends
Bet 1st period: total less than 1.5 pucks
In eight of the nine games involving Dynamo, the first period was not productive.
1.64Bet 2nd period: Dynamo will score
The Muscovites scored in the second period in three of the four matches.
1.62Tip and bets
Dynamo continues to win and is trying to gain a foothold on the second line in the conference. Now the team under the leadership of Alexei Kudashov is in excellent shape and has won four victories in a row. Muscovites stopped skipping in large numbers, and Maxim Motorygin became the first number among the hosts. Lokomotiv has already solved all its problems in the regular season and will not fall below the first place in the West. Alexander Yelesin's squad continues to win, but the games against the blue and white turn out to be very difficult for the Volga Region. We think that more motivated hosts will take two points at home. We offer a bet on winning the first one with a zero handicap.
Prediction - Dynamo wins with an Asian handicap (0) in 1.87
Betting on an individual total
Dynamo is playing very well defensively at this stage of the season. In the last four games, the blue and white have conceded only five times, and in the last three matches against Lokomotiv they have managed to contain the pressure of the opponent. Yaroslavl played well ahead in previous games, but they are unlikely to be able to at least three times to break through the goalkeeper of the Muscovites.
We bet on the individual total of the Locomotive less than 2.5 washers with a coefficient of 1.65
Bet on the total total
The first match between the teams this season turned out to be productive, but after that the situation changed radically. In the last three games, the teams did not score more than four goals between the two and acted strictly from defense. Both teams play indoor hockey and try to make mistakes on their side of the ice as little as possible. We don't expect more than four accurate shots from the meeting.
We take a total of less than five goals for 1.67
