Avangard - Metallurg Magnitogorsk: betting tip for the KHL match
On April 1, the last match of the series between Avangard and Magnitogorsk Metallurg will probably take place. The fact is that Omsk are leading 3-0 and are determined to end this confrontation on their ice. The Hawks won the last match in a hard-fought fight. Is it worth betting on their success this time? Or will the foxes be able to rehabilitate themselves? We will learn about this from the betting tip
Command Analysis
Avangard Omsk
Russian FederationCurrent form
Avangard looked very powerful in the second half of the season and looks no less powerful in the current Gagarin Cup draw. The team is still in excellent condition, which it gained during the regular season, and sets itself the highest goals. It is no coincidence that Omsk are leading the series with a score of 3:0, although they have won the last two with great difficulty.
If in the first match the hawks dealt with the opponent with the score 4:1 with utmost confidence, then in subsequent meetings it came to overtime, where Guy Boucher's team had more strength and luck, thanks to which he celebrated success in both cases. The hero of the last match was Vladimir Tkachev, who scored the decisive winning goal.
However, Nikita Serebryakov, the goalkeeper, continues to demonstrate an incredibly confident game, reflecting more than 30 shots in almost every match. If not for his actions and rescues, of course, it would have been much more difficult for Omsk to expect to win this series.
Disqualifications and injuries
Boikov and Stepanov are still in the club's infirmary.
Interesting betting trends
- Avangard won 56% of face-offs in the previous matches of the series.
- According to statistics, the Hawks used 29 power techniques in the first matches.
Metallurg Magnitogorsk
Russian FederationCurrent form
Metallurg also showed excellent results at the end of the season, but so far there is nothing they can do against a powerful rival. The team is trying to play the same hockey as before, but it is not bearing any fruit. By the way, there were no noticeable changes in the style of play compared to the home matches in the away match.
Andrey Razin's squad had a lot of good chances at someone else's goal, but they couldn't beat the goalkeeper in any way. It is noteworthy that never before in this series has Magnitogorsk opened the opponent's defense more than twice. Plus, in the last meeting, Andrei Razin's squad had certain discipline problems, and it violated the rules four times, for which it paid with a missed puck.
After the third match of the series, the club's coach noted at a press conference that the players had failed psychologically, but stated that the team was ready to fight to the end.
Disqualifications and injuries
Vladislav Yeremenko will not be able to help his team in the upcoming crisis.
Interesting betting trends
- In this series, according to statistics, Metallurg receives an average of 9.33 minutes of penalty time per match.
- On average, Magnitogorsk blocks 17 shots at its own goal.
Trends
Bet 1st period: total less than 1.5 pucks
In three out of five matches between the clubs, the first period was inconclusive.
1.62Bid for the 2nd period: The hosts will score
In the last three meetings, Omsk scored goals in the second leg.
1.57Tip and bets
We think that Avangard will be able to complete this series in the upcoming match. Omsk is a very uncomfortable opponent for Metallurg this season, and Magnitogorsk cannot adapt to them in any way. The psychological advantage is now also completely on the side of the owners of the site, who, with the support of the home stands, are capable of a lot. We think that if Boucher's team plays in the same way as in the last match, he will have the opportunity to deal with Magnitogorsk within the regular time.
Betting Tip - Avangard's victory in 2.20
Betting on an individual total
Metallurg has never scored more than two goals in any of the matches. The guests create a lot of dangerous moments at someone else's goal and make a lot of shots, but Nikita Serebryakov acts extremely reliably and does a great job of his duties. In addition, the guests lack the variability in attack, so it makes sense to bet on their individual total.
We take the individual total of the Metallurgist less than 2.5 washers for 1.60
Bet on the total total
We wouldn't expect a lot of goals scored in this game. Avangard prefers to play very carefully now and not give his opponent a lot of free space on the court. We see a lot of power struggles in this series, so there's nothing to suggest that anything should change in this regard in the fourth match.
We bet on a total of less than 4.5 goals for 2.05
