Kunlun - Avangard: betting tip for the KHL match
On March 22, the hockey season will end in Mytishchi near Moscow. Kunlun could have clung to a place in the playoffs, but Mikhail Kravets' team lacked stability over the long run, so the Chinese finish the regular season only in ninth place. Avangard will definitely play in the final part of the tournament, but the visitors need to win the last game to improve their position in the East. Will the Hawks be able to take two points against the stars? This is stated in the betting tip for the confrontation

Command Analysis

HC Red Star Kunlun

Current form
The Chinese team was at the bottom of the conference table throughout the regular season, but after the start of the new season, it suddenly began to qualify for the playoffs. Kunlun took advantage of the Torpedo's poor form and breathed down Nizhny Novgorod's backs, but the hosts failed to catch up with the Volga region. The Stars finish the season in ninth place in the West, scoring 62 points in 67 starts. Mikhail Kravets's team did not perform well in March and won only two meetings in the spring. In the last game, they failed to put the squeeze on the guests from Cherepovets (4:5, B) on their ice.
The Pekingese have been missing a lot and have been one of the worst defensive teams in the league since the beginning of autumn. On average, the red light behind the Dragons' goal lights up 3.43 times per match, while Red Star has good goalkeepers. Jeremy Smith was the club's primary goalkeeper and was able to deflect 90.90% of shots. He made four shutouts in 42 matches, conceding 3.06 goals per game.
Disqualifications and injuries
Fu Jang is injured and will not play against the Hawks.

Avangard Omsk

Current form
Avangard got off to a very weak start this season, but over time, the guests gained good form and were able to strengthen themselves with good hockey players. The team from the Omsk region changed their coach and quickly returned to the playoff zone, and not so long ago they joined the fight for a leading position in the East. The Hawks are in sixth place in the conference, with 85 points after 67 games. They really need a victory in order to bypass Ak Bars and move at least one more position higher. Omsk are in great shape and have lost only twice since February 4. On the road, they have already managed to play against Dynamo Moscow (3:4, OT) and Vityaz (3:2, OT).
The Black and Reds have become more stable playing in the other half of the court and improved their goalscoring record to 2.99 per game. Guy Boucher's team scored 15 accurate shots in the last five games, but it wasn't always enough for the desired result. Nail Yakupov became the club's leader in the number of points scored. The Russian made 48 effective actions (23+25).
Disqualifications and injuries
Daniil Stepanov and Sergey Boikov will not come to Mytishchi with their partners.
Interesting betting trends

1.35Tip and bets
Kunlun has not claimed anything for quite some time and ends the season playing in front of its home stands. The Chinese team played very poorly on their half of the ice throughout the regular season and often missed in large numbers. Avangard is one of the strongest teams in the league at the moment, despite its sixth place in the conference. The Hawks really need a win and they will do everything to succeed in the game against the stars. We think that Guy Boucher's team will celebrate their success within the regular time. We offer a bet on winning the second one.
Betting Tip - Avangard's victory in 1.70
Betting on an individual total
Kunlun has conceded more than 200 goals this season and has failed defensively quite often. The team from the Omsk region has gained good form and has consistently scored at least three times in a meeting lately. We believe that the hawks will not sit on their side of the ice and will try to throw as much as possible into the opponent's goal.
We bet more than three goals on the Avangard's individual total with a coefficient of 1.65
Bet on the total total
Kunlun doesn't need anything anymore, and the Chinese have been playing especially well lately. The Dragons want to please the audience with a lot of dangerous moments and abandoned pucks. Avangard has specific tasks for the final match of the regular season, so we are waiting for an exciting hockey game and a lot of goals. Let's bet on the total more.
We take a total of more than five goals for 1.60
