Spartak - Salavat Yulaev: betting tip for the KHL match

Spartak won the last match with Salavat Yulaev and took the lead in the series. On April 17, we will have the fourth match between these clubs, which will also be held in Moscow. Ufa players must draw the right conclusions after an unsuccessful match the day before, but up to this point they have not won a single victory on the road yet. What bet should I place on this event? You will learn about this from the betting tip

Command Analysis

Spartak Moscow

Current form
Spartak initially had great ambitions and was already ripe for great results. The team looks pretty harmonious this season and knows how to use its strengths well. In addition, Alexey Zhamnov was able to competently set up his players for a series with Salavat and find the right words after losing the opening match.
Of course, the victory in the second meeting played a huge role, when the Muscovites lost with a score of 3:4 and won back just a second before the siren. Let's remind that in the third match, which took place on their ice, the red and white fairly confidently dealt with their opponent with a score of 4:2 and then they gained a three-goal advantage by the equator of the second period.
Their discipline let them down a bit, and the loss of concentration at the end of the second twenty minutes almost made itself felt, but, fortunately, Spartak spent the third segment again at a very high level. It is impossible not to mention the actions of the goalkeeper, Artyom Zagidulin, who managed to parry 31 shots. In general, the goalkeeper has a lot of responsibility on his shoulders in this series, because Ufa players try to make a huge number of shots from different positions, so he always needs to be at the limit of concentration.
Disqualifications and injuries
Spartak has no problems with the squad right now.
Interesting betting trends
- On average, Spartak gets 8.88 minutes of penalty time.
- Muscovites win 55.1% of face-offs

Salavat Yulaev Ufa

Current form
Salavat Yulaev continues to show poor results on the road and loses match after match at other people's venues, even in the playoffs. There is no way a team can overcome this psychological barrier and play the same way they play on their own ice. She simply lacks the emotions that fans can give, so in most cases Ufa players are left with no more than two abandoned goals in the asset.
Also, the greens do not force their opponent to break the rules at all. Even in the last match, they allowed the opponent to retire only once, so they didn't really have the opportunity to play in the majority and didn't get any additional attempts to score. The coaching staff's move to change the goalkeeper did not help either, as Semyon Vyazovoy missed four shots in 26 shots. There is a high probability that Alexander Samonov will play in the goal again in the upcoming match.
After the third match, at a press conference, the club's coach, Viktor Kozlov, said that his team looked good in terms of the content of the game, but it lacked composure at the end of the moments. Indeed, Ufa players often have difficulties with the realization of moments, especially when they play away.
Disqualifications and injuries
Kuzmin and Todd will miss the upcoming match due to injuries.
Interesting betting trends
- Salavat gets an average of 5.7 minutes of penalty time.
- Ufa wins 50.7% of face-offs
Trends
Bet 1st period: total more than 1.5 pucks
In two out of three matches between the teams, the first period turned out to be productive.
1.87Bid for the 2nd period: The hosts will score
In three of the four matches, the hosts scored goals in the second leg.
1.46Tip and bets
In our opinion, nothing should change in the fourth match compared to the last match. Spartak performs better on the home arena than on the road, and feels extra confidence in their abilities. Now the initiative in the series is entirely on his side. Ufa residents, in turn, do not feel as comfortable as they used to. In addition, the greens continue to play rather poorly away, so we suggest betting on the success of the hosts in this case.
Prediction - Spartak wins with a handicap (0) in 1.85
Betting on an individual total
In the last two matches, Spartak demonstrated excellent offensive play and scored no less than four goals. Ufa players miss quite a lot on the road, and on average there are at least three goals in their goal net. The red-and-whites make great use of their chances, and also score regularly in the majority, so it makes sense to take their total again.
We take Spartak's individual total of more than 2.5 goals for 1.72
Bet on the total total
All previous matches between the teams have been played with at least five goals scored. Spartak is counting exclusively on open hockey, even in the playoffs, and Ufa residents have no choice but to accept the rules of the game. Matches in Moscow, in general, often turn out to be spectacular, so there is a high probability that we will witness six or more goals in the upcoming meeting.
We bet on a total of more than 5.5 pucks for 1.95
