LiontipsCSK VVS - Molot. Forecast and bets on the VHL match
Command Analysis
Current form
The Samara club failed last season and by the end of it could only take 23rd place in the standings, which did not allow them to fight in the playoffs of the Petrov Cup. The current championship is also going unsuccessfully, and the coaching staff cannot direct the team in the right direction. The first round of the VHL championship is nearing its end, and the "army men" have already suffered 18 defeats in 28 matches and conceded 87 goals. Sergei Shikhanov charges are in 30th place in the standings with 22 points, and in the past 10 games they have lost seven times. There can be no talk of knockout matches, but CSK VVS is capable of providing due resistance to more experienced teams. It is worth noting the away match against Khimik in Voskresensk, where the Samara team crushed the opponent in overtime, as well as the game against the winner of the Bratina Cup, Neftyanik (4:2). In the last game, the team in Tula was unable to beat AKM (2:3).
Interesting trends for betting
- On average, CSK VVS scores 2.1 goals per game
- The team has not been able to defeat its opponent in the last four games.
Current form
Perm demonstrated quite confident hockey in the past regular championship, where they took first place. "Molot" shot 192 pucks and won 41 victories, taking into account overtimes. In the playoffs, the "bears" were considered one of the main contenders for the Petrov Cup, but the club could not cope with Krasnoyarsk "Sokol" at the 1/8 final stage and went to prepare for the current championship. The team from Perm did not start very well, but began to gain momentum and won six victories in the last 10 games. The team led by Yuri Panov won 17 victories in 31 games and is not going to stop there. In the past confrontation, the squad played away and lost to Penza "Dizel" (1:4), conceding two goals while shorthanded. But in the game before, the Hammers had to come back twice during the meeting with Yuzhny Ural. The match ended 2:2, and in the shootout, the Perm team was more accurate. In this game segment, the team has 37 points and is in 11th place in the tournament table, four points behind the third-placed Voskresensk Khimik.
Interesting trends for betting
- In the last five games, the team has scored an average of two goals
- The club has not lost in regulation time in four of its last five games

2.35Tip and bets
In this confrontation, bookmakers put the guests as the favorites, who are currently playing stronger than their opponent from Samara. Molot is playing on the opponent ice, has won three of the last five games and intends to continue the fight for a place in the playoff zone. The club from Perm has a more balanced roster, which will allow it to win and will become a decisive factor in the match.
Prediction: Molot win with odds of 1.97
Bet on total
This pair is likely to feature a game on opposite courses with many scoring opportunities. However, in five games in a row, the visitors have scored less than six goals, and we believe that the goal-scoring extravaganza will not take place, as in the last game of CSK VVS on home ice in Samara.
Forecast - total under 5.5 goals with odds of 1.67
Bet on individual total
Molot has no problems in attack, but the hosts have some problems in defense. In the past five matches, the Perm club scored only nine goals, but we can assume that the guests will still score at least three goals.
Forecast - individual total of "Molot" more than 2.5 goals for 1.67
