Dynamo Minsk - Barys. Forecast and bets on the KHL match

Current form

The Dynamo players have already played three home games and started the series at home with a hard-fought victory over CSKA in overtime (5:4). After the opponent earned a significant advantage in the second period, the team did not give up, but on the contrary, picked up the pace and was able to tie the score at the end of the final period, and then snatched victory in extra time. Forward Shipachev showed an amazing game, scoring a goal and also giving two assists. However, the Bisons were unable to consolidate their success and suffered a dry defeat with a score of 0:2 in the match with Metallurg. This time the attacking line looked pale, and only managed to make 26 shots on goal.

However, in the match with Neftekhimik, the Minsk team played much more actively in attack, which allowed them to win confidently with a score of 4:1. Goalkeeper Tikhomirov also worked very confidently, reflecting 95% of the shots. Overall, Dynamo has shown mixed results so far and is in seventh place in the Western Conference table, with 19 points.

Disqualifications and injuries

Dynamo does not have any serious problems with its roster; goalkeeper Kareev, forward Stas and defender Denisov remain in the infirmary.

Interesting trends for betting

• Dynamo will concede an average of 2.4 goals per match

The Minsk team has been showing very reliable defensive play throughout the season and rarely concedes a large number of goals.

• The Bisons are averaging 9.4 penalty minutes per game.

The team discipline is not so smooth; the Minsk team often breaks the rules and ends up in unequal teams.

Current form

The start of the season for Barys was extremely difficult, the team has already changed its head coach twice in a month, but this does not help to improve its game. Another series of defeats of five matches was interrupted at home, where the Kazakhs were able to take advantage of Avangard not-so-best form and won in regular time with a score of 1:0. Once again, the attacking line looked very weak, and they managed to achieve success only thanks to goalkeeper Boyarkin, who reflected all the shots. As expected, the team was unable to consolidate its success, in the match with Salavat Yulaev they had to suffer another defeat (2:3). This time, the "Bars" were much more active, but this did not bring the expected result. Then the team went to play away to the leader of the Western Conference, Lokomotiv, and again, as expected, lost with a score of 1:3.

Barys has already played 17 matches in the new season and has managed to earn only seven points, which is one of the weakest starts in the KHL. Barys' main problem is its very low offensive performance, on average it scores only 1.1 goals per match, which is unacceptably low for the KHL. It should also be noted that the club is refusing the services of foreign players who were invited to strengthen the attack.

Disqualifications and injuries

Barys has serious problems with its roster, which directly affects their performance, as five forwards are in the infirmary. Allison, Mukhametov, Savitsky, Smith C.J. and Starchenko will not play in the upcoming match.

Interesting trends for betting

• On average, Barys scores one goal per match

The team terrible performance is the main reason for the disastrous start to the season.

• Barys eliminated only 75% of power play attempts

It is also worth noting the terrible play of the Kazakhs in the minority. They constantly allow opponents to realize the extra player on the court.
