LiontipsSKA-1946 - MHK Dynamo. Forecast and bets on the MHL match
Command Analysis
Current form
SKA-1946 demonstrated excellent play last season and absolutely deservedly became the MHL champion, beating Lokomotiv in five games in the final. This season, the club looks much less confident, but there is still plenty of time to pick up speed before the playoffs. It is unlikely that the St. Petersburg team will miss out on a place in the top eight, because the defense remains beyond praise - only 57 goals conceded, which is the best result in the Golden Division of the Western Conference. The attack is also good - the "army men" are among the top three teams in the division in terms of the number of goals scored. After a big victory over SKA-Junior (13:0), which became the culmination of a seven-game winning streak, two defeats in a row followed - first the club lost to Dynamo St. Petersburg (2:3), and then in overtime turned out to be weaker than MHC Mikhailov Academy U20 (2:3, OT).
Interesting trends for betting
- The team scores an average of 4.4 goals per game
- The hosts have won the third period in all three of their last games.
Current form
Dynamo finished last season in fourth place in the Gold Division, just one point away from third place. However, they did not perform well in the playoffs - in the very first round, the Muscovites lost to Almaz, although they started the confrontation with two victories. Now the Muscovites occupy sixth place in the Gold Division. This is enough for the playoffs, but the team clearly wants to climb higher. The team recent results do not inspire optimism - only one win in seven matches. On December 2, they managed to crush Almaz with a score of 8:3, but the next day the club suffered a defeat from the same opponent (3:4). In addition, it is worth noting two consecutive dry defeats from Lokomotiv (0:7 and 0:2). The guests are clearly not in the best shape now, so in the confrontation with SKA-1946, the Muscovites are a clear underdog.
Interesting trends for betting
- The team scores an average of 3.1 goals per game
- The club has won only one of their last five head-to-head meetings

3.35Tip and bets
The hosts intend to retain the championship title, and the chances of this for the St. Petersburg team are quite high. Not long ago, the "army men" had a series of seven victories in a row. Now is the time to start a new series of victories. At the moment, SKA is much stronger than Dynamo. The Muscovites continue to suffer defeat after defeat, so we do not see any reason for a sensation here. We expect a confident victory from the club from St. Petersburg.
Our forecast is Asian handicap (-1.5) on SKA-1946 for 1.77
Bet on total
The hosts often win by a large margin, but this mostly happens in matches with clubs from the Silver Division, which are significantly weaker than Dynamo. We believe that the Muscovites will be able to play well in defense, so we should not expect more than six goals scored from the teams.
Our prediction is under 6.5 goals for 1.62
Bet on individual total
The "army men" have no problems in attack, the team has scored 22 goals against their opponent in the last five head-to-head games. We believe that the hosts will be able to upset the opponent goalkeeper four times.
Our prediction is SKA-1946 individual total over 3.5 goals at 1.68
