Command Analysis

Ak Bars Kazan

Current form
After the successful completion of the opening series with Avtomobilist, Ak Bars also made a great start to the quarterfinals, where in the first two matches he left no chance for Dynamo Moscow, gaining the upper hand with a score of 5:3 and 2:0, respectively. Yes, Kazan had problems in defense, but the game of goalkeeper Bilyalov fully compensated for this shortcoming. However, as soon as the team returned to the home arena, they immediately began to have problems. In the very first match, Barys suffered an unexpected defeat with only one goal in the score (1:3). Moreover, the attacking line created constant pressure on the opponent, but out of 33 shots, only one reached the target.
In the second home match, Ak Bars played even more reliably defensively, but still could not achieve the desired result, losing by one goal (2:3). It seemed that the Leopards would be able to prove themselves again against the blue and white, but in the second period the competitor earned a significant advantage, which could not be won back, which led to the third defeat in a row (3:4).

Dynamo showed excellent results throughout the regular season, which they continued to do in the playoffs. In the first round, the team easily defeated SKA St. Petersburg with a final score of 4:2 in the series. However, then the team had to fight a much more serious opponent, Ak Bars. Despite the fact that the Muscovites started at home, they allowed the Leopards to take a significant advantage, losing in two matches in a row.
Few people could have expected that the blue and white would be able to realize their attacking potential on the road, but Kudashov's wards realized almost every moment of their own, which allowed them to even the score in the series with Ak Bars. Goalkeeper Podyapolsky showed an amazing game, reflecting 64 points in both meetings. Returning to the home arena, Dynamo once again showed its productive game, snatching Victoria from the opponent with a one-goal difference (4:3), thereby earning a critical advantage. This time, it is difficult to even single out any of the players, as many have distinguished themselves by their effective actions.

The quarterfinal series may end in the upcoming match, as Dynamo is just one step away from the semifinals. Ak Bars will once again perform at the home arena, where they will try to rehabilitate themselves in front of the fans and break their series of failures. Serious pressure will be created on the team, as it is no longer possible to concede. On the other hand, the club consists of very experienced players who should be able to handle it without any problems and give their best. If you pay attention to the face-to-face meetings, you can see that in almost every match the Kazan team looks a little better, but they just don't have any luck with the implementation of attacking chances. We believe that this time the home walls will help the team achieve the desired result.
