Spartak - Avtomobilist. Betting Tip and bets on the KHL match

Current form

Spartak remains one of the main leaders of the Western Conference and currently occupies the fourth position in the tournament table. However, the team has not been doing well lately and has been losing quite a lot of points. Note that since the beginning of last month, it has not been able to get on a long winning streak or even two victories in a row, which is why it cannot feel completely comfortable.

Let us recall that the red-and-whites also lost in three of the previous four matches. After the holidays, they lost to Severstal (3:5), then literally crushed SKA (5:0), but in the subsequent away matches with Lokomotiv (4:5) and CSKA (2:4) they lost again, while conceding a total of nine goals in two matches. Perhaps the home series of games will help them gain confidence in their strength and come to their senses, because with the support of their stands, the Muscovites have been playing quite well this season and have previously lost within 60 minutes only five times.

It is also worth remembering that Spartak is at its strongest in the second period, where they often score goals and have a 59:46 ratio of goals scored and goals conceded. Incidentally, the leading scorer, namely Pavel Poryadin, has already earned a total of 34 points in the goal+pass system, but, strangely enough, he remained without scoring in the final two games.

Disqualifications and injuries

Ansel Galimov and Andrei Mironov will not be able to help their team in the upcoming match.

Current form

Avtomobilist maintains a fairly comfortable position in the East and is in fifth place in the tournament table. The team is seven points ahead of its closest pursuer Avangard, so it is definitely not in danger in the near future. If it continues to show similar results, it may well qualify for the top three. Note that the club was able to produce a series of three victories for the first time since November, and before that it had experienced many problems.

After an unsuccessful away match against Traktor (0:2), the Yekaterinburg team pulled themselves together and dealt with Barys (3:2 SO) in the fight, and then beat Admiral (4:3) and Dynamo Minsk (4:3 SO) on their home ice. At the same time, all victories were achieved with great difficulty, and it often came down to a series of shootouts. At the same time, the team itself rarely loses by a difference of several goals and even in difficult matches for itself, it is capable of causing a lot of difficulties to its counterpart.

Usually Nikolay Zavarukhin team really gets going in the third twenty minutes, which they spend very actively and, not by chance, have a 42:31 ratio of goals scored and goals conceded. On the road, in general, Avto also looks pretty good, since in 22 meetings they have played, they have celebrated success in regulation time in ten cases, which is a decent indicator.

Curtis Wolk and Nick Ebert will not play in the next game.
