Command Analysis

Omskie Krylia

Current form
The management of the Omsk club expected to fight for a place in the playoffs of the Petrov Cup before the start of the championship, but there are probably no chances. The team does not always play with full dedication, does not fulfill the coach instructions and does not show character throughout the match. However, in the last meeting, Omskie Krylia showed a confident game and was able to win over the leader, St. Petersburg Dynamo. The Omsk team fought with the opponent throughout the match and in most moments played stronger than the opponent. The confrontation ended with a confident victory of the hosts 3:1, which once again shows that the club from Omsk can show character and skill. At this stage, the team has 17 wins and 23 losses, 39 points and an interim 26th place in the tournament table. The championship fight continues and Andrey Evstafyev charges have a theoretical chance of getting into the TOP-16 if they do not make ridiculous mistakes. The gap from Norilsk, which is closing the playoff zone, is nine points, which they will most likely not be able to win back.
Interesting trends for betting
- On average, Omskie Krylia scores 2.3 goals per match
- The team has won three victories in its last four games.

Zvezda Chekhov

Current form
At the start of the championship, Zvezda showed brilliant results and was the leader of the VHL for some time. However, Rinat Khasanov charges slowed down and gradually fell to the middle of the tournament table, showing not quite confident results. At this stage, the team from Moscow seems to have corrected the situation, won four victories in five past matches, occupies the 15th place in the tournament table and is located in the zone of the 16 best teams of the league. However, the squad position is shaky, since the catchers are not lagging behind and are nipping at their heels. In the last confrontation, the army team met away from home with Rubin from Tyumen and won a confident victory with a score of 4:2, without losing in any of the three periods. The team was unable to resist Khanty-Mansiysk Yugra in the previous game, losing 1:4 in the end. In 41 confrontations, the CSKA farm club won 22 victories with 19 defeats, scored 132 goals and conceded 119 goals.
Interesting trends for betting
- Since the start of the season, the average goal scored in Zvezda matches has been six
- The team has not lost in the second period in the last four matches.

Bet on total
This pair is expected to play on opposite courses with a small number of scoring opportunities. The opponents have been scoring a little lately, and the last six face-to-face matches out of seven ended with a total under. With the teams' ineffective play in personal matches, it is difficult to count on a goal extravaganza.

The star has scored an average of 3.5 goals in the last five games, while Omskie Krylia have conceded 11 goals in the same number of games. We can assume that the Moscow team will score more than two goals against their opponent.
