LiontipsSochi - Kunlun. Betting Tip and bets on the match of the tournament in memory of N. Puchkov on August 27, 2024
Command Analysis
Current form
Sochi still hasn't managed to win a single game in the pre-season, which the team began with a match against the Russian U23 team, losing 2-4 to the young team. Then the Leopards fought one of the strongest clubs in the league, SKA from St. Petersburg, and were expected to suffer a rout, but thanks to the incredible play of goalkeeper Ivanov, they managed to take the match into overtime, where they still had to lose (1-2).
As expected, Sochi was also unable to put up a fight against Severstal, and goalkeeper Krasikov turned out to be not as reliable as his teammate, which ultimately led to another defeat (4:7).
Interesting trends for betting
- Sochi conceded an average of 3.7 goals per game last season
- Sochi scored an average of 2.47 goals per match
Estimated composition
Krasikov, Chebykin, Khafizov, Utkin, Novikov, Machulin, Tyanulin, Spiridonov, Surouh, Manukhov, Kroschinsky, Shvyrev, Fedotov, Suvorov, Fedotov, Trishin, Stalnov, Eliseev, Vengryzhanovsky, Volkov, Graham
Current form
Kunlun has so far occasionally surprised its fans with successful play in pre-season training, and the team has mostly suffered losses from serious opponents such as Ak Bars, Lokomotiv and Severstal. In matches with Spartak and the Russian national team, it was possible to hold back the pressure of its competitors, thereby achieving two confident and unexpected victories with scores of 4:1 and 7:1, respectively.
It is true that Red Star sometimes manages to play reliably, but this happens too rarely, and the problem from last season has not gone away.
Interesting trends for betting
- Kunlun allowed an average of 3.36 goals per game last season
- Kunlun averaged 26 shots per game
Estimated composition
Volkov, Keizer, Jurusik, Smith, Sharychenkov, Wood, Merkley, Ottenbreit, Somerby, Chelios, Clendeling, Lefebvre, McCoshen, Pautow, O'Regan, Wilkie, Helbgewachs, Chartier, Elinuk, Yurcho, Vaughan O., Vaughan T., Traovac, Yip, Campbell, Lockhart, Moyle, Fu P., Fu S.

1.58Tip and bets
In the upcoming match, bookmakers highlight Kunlun as the clear favorite. Indeed, so far Red Star looks much more interesting than its competitor and is even capable of giving a worthy rebuff to serious competitors. It can be said that the Leopards also gave SKA a fight, but it is worth considering that if it were not for the goalkeeper, the score would have been crushing. The Stars, in turn, play on opposite courses and try to show their strong side, which the Leopards do not do at all. It is for these reasons that we suggest making a confident bet in favor of Kunlun.
Our prediction is a victory for Kunlun at 1.62
Bet on total
Face-to-face meetings between the teams are often filled with a huge number of goals scored, since Sochi is not known for its reliable defense, which can also be said about Kunlun. We believe that nothing will change, and the teams will once again delight fans with productive hockey.
Betting Tip - total over 6.5 goals for 1.84
Bet on the outcome of the first period
In the first period, Sochi looks good and is even capable of playing on equal terms with its opponents, so it can easily withstand the opening twenty minutes.
Betting Tip - Sochi will not lose in the first period for 1.57
