Vityaz - Dinamo Minsk. Forecast and bets on the KHL match

Current form

Vityaz ended its long away series of six games, which ultimately turned out to be a failure. The team managed to win only two victories over Torpedo (2:1) and Minsk Dynamo (4:1). In the match with the Bisons, the team certainly should not have celebrated success, as it made only 19 shots on goal, which is more than two times less than the opponent. The Podolsk team was simply luckier in converting moments in attack, and goalkeeper Doroshko also showed an excellent game, not allowing the opponent to make a comeback. In the same way, the Bogatyrs were able to give a worthy rebuff to Spartak, but this time they were unable to maintain the advantage, losing in overtime (3:4).

Returning to the home arena, the team fought with an opponent of their level, in the person of Sochi, and again could not show their attacking potential to the full extent, losing with a score of 1:3. This time, goalkeeper Shikin stood in the goal, reflecting only 83% of the shots. In the match with Severstal, Doroshko again took to the ice and did not allow the Cherepovets team to score a single puck, thanks to which Vityaz again won, and without a goal (2:0). The points scored helped the team rise to ninth place in the Eastern Conference table, three points behind the playoff zone.

Disqualifications and injuries

Vityaz has virtually no problems with its roster. Only defender Grigoriy Vaschenko is in the infirmary.

Interesting trends for betting

• On average, Vityaz scores only 2.3 goals per match

The Podolsk team still can't get their attacking game going and rarely scores a lot of goals.

• The Bogatyrs converted 21.4% of their power play attempts

The team often takes advantage of dangerous moments when they have a numerical advantage.

Current form

Dynamo finished a four-game home series with mixed results. In the first match, the team faced Vityaz and seemed to have an easy win over the obvious underdog. However, serious problems arose with converting attacking opportunities, despite their abundance. As a result, Dynamo suffered a 1:4 defeat. However, the Minsk team quickly rehabilitated itself in front of the fans, snatching a victory over a much more powerful competitor, Salavat Yulaev, with a score of 3:2 in a shootout. The defensive line once again showed its best side, especially goalkeeper Tikhomirov, who reflected 96% of the shots, avoiding additional problems.

Then the "bisons" played with "Severstal" and won a more confident victory with a score of 3:1. This time Tikhomirov again became the hero of the match, thanks to his reliable play. "Dynamo" was one step away from a third victory in a row in the match with "Torpedo", but suffered an offensive defeat in overtime with a score of 1:2. The opponent made only 12 shots on the Minsk goal in three periods, but this was enough for the victory. In general, the "bisons" have shown a good game this season, periodically delighting fans with successful results. Thanks to this, the team is in eighth place in the Western Conference table, lagging behind the fourth position by only three points.
