Avangard - Avtomobilist. Forecast and bets on the KHL match

Current form

After an unsuccessful end to the away series and a defeat to Avtomobilist (2:4), the Omsk team returned to their home arena, where they fought Severstal and again failed to put up a decent fight, losing with the same score of 2:4. What is especially noteworthy is that the Hawks made only 15 shots on the opponent goal in three periods, which, of course, was not enough. The defensive line also performed terribly, allowing the Cherepovets team to create a huge number of dangerous moments in their zone. Goalkeeper Serebryakov was the only one who showed his best side, but he was unable to resist the Steelworkers on his own.

However, in the second home game, the "hawks" were able to rehabilitate themselves before the fans, defeating "Sochi" 6-0. This time, the team played completely differently and throughout the match created serious pressure on the opponent, which they were unable to cope with. In particular, it is worth praising the forwards of the first line, who scored a total of eight effective actions. Defenseman Sharipzyanov also distinguished himself, having made an assist hat-trick. "Avangard" has been consistently earning points for a long time, due to which it was able to get closer to the playoff zone, but so far remains only in ninth position.

Disqualifications and injuries

Avangard continues to experience huge problems with its roster. Berdin, Boykov, Grant and Stepanov are in the club infirmary.

Interesting trends for betting

• On average, Avangard scores 2.4 goals per match

This season, Omsk has not been particularly productive in attack, which is why they often cannot compensate for their lapses in defense.

• On average, a team receives 6.3 penalty minutes per match.

But the club has complete discipline, which allows it to remain at full strength throughout almost the entire match.

Current form

It may seem that Avtomobilist is in a slump, as the team has been unable to achieve success for three games in a row. However, it is worth considering that the team repeatedly meets very strong opponents, which not every club in the league can overcome. The Yekaterinburg team played at home, where they met Traktor and were unable to cope with the onslaught of the Chelyabinsk team, losing with a score of 3:5. Goalkeeper Alikin showed his worst side, reflecting only 81% of shots. The attacking line tried its best to correct the situation and constantly created pressure on the opponent, but this did not bring the desired result.

Continuing to play at home, the team fought another competitor of its level in the person of Spartak, and this time suffered an offensive defeat in a shootout (4:5). Despite the lost points, it is worth praising forward Da Costa, who scored a goal and also gave two assists. Then Avto fought Traktor again, only this time at its arena, and was unable to realize its attacking potential, losing with a score of 1:3. Even despite the lost points, the club continues to remain in third place in the Western Conference table, having 42 points.

Disqualifications and injuries

There are no serious losses in the Avtomobilist team. The team will continue to play Volk and Ebert.

Interesting trends for betting

• On average, Avtomobilist concedes 2.4 goals per match

The team can boast of a very reliable defensive game this season.

• The Yekaterinburg team realized 20% of their power play attempts.

It is also worth noting the very confident play with the advantage of one player on the court, which allows the club to often take advantage of the opponent penalties.
