SKA - Dynamo Moscow: betting tip for the KHL match
On April 2, SKA will take the fight against Dynamo Moscow on its ice. The army team celebrated their success in the previous match, so they must be absolutely ready for the upcoming meeting with the blue and white. However, Muscovites are also not ready to retreat and return to their homes with a draw. What bet should be placed on the upcoming event? You can find out the answer in our betting tip

Command Analysis

SKA St. Petersburg

Current form
SKA showed unstable results throughout the season, so it is not surprising that it could not be among the leaders of the Western Conference. Nevertheless, the team initially had big ambitions, so it plans to at least play in the Gagarin Cup final, but achieving this goal, of course, will be very, very difficult.
The Army men in this series definitely don't look like favorites. Let's remind that they failed in the two opening matches. First, they lost to the Muscovites with a score of 1:3, and then lost in overtime (1:2 OT). Fortunately, after returning to the home arena, the St. Petersburg team was still able to deal with the opponent with a score of 5:3. However, Roman Rotenberg's team had a comfortable two-goal advantage in that match, but they almost brought it to extra time.
It was only thanks to Ilya Karpukhin's puck at the end of the third period that SKA celebrated success within regular time. Also, the majority team performed well in that meeting, which brought two abandoned goals.

At the moment, SKA has no problems with the squad.

HC Dynamo Moscow

Current form
Dynamo finished the regular season on the second line of the Western Conference and came to the start of the playoffs in great shape. The team had a great opening two matches against a powerful opponent and looked much better in some aspects. However, throughout the season, she earned more points on her own ice than on the road.
Alexey Kudashov's team definitely did not perform so well at other venues, and this trend continues in the playoffs. Perhaps, in the last meeting, the Muscovites were strongly influenced by a quick goal, which they conceded already in the fourth minute of the first period in the 4x5 format. It was after him that Dynamo could not fully return to the game.
However, Dynamo will certainly try to play more reliably in defense in the upcoming meeting. Kudashov's squad will not allow SKA to play in the same manner as in the last match. Moreover, in most of the face-to-face meetings, Dynamo remained with a minimum number of goals conceded.
Disqualifications and injuries
The team doesn't have any problems with the squad right now.
Interesting betting trends
- Dynamo gets an average of eight minutes of penalty time per match.
- According to statistics, the team performs 29 power moves per match.

1.67Tip and bets
In our opinion, Dynamo can claim success in the upcoming match. Even in the final unsuccessful match for themselves, they were able to save the situation and almost brought it to overtime with a score of 1:3. Muscovites usually act more reliably, unlike their opponent, and play the way they need to play in the playoffs, unlike the Army, who continue to act the way they do in the regular season.
Betting Tip - Dynamo wins with a handicap (0) in 2.15
Betting on an individual total
After the disastrous match, Dynamo will certainly try to play as reliably as possible in defense. The Blue and White team has a good defensive game and did not allow the Army team to score three times in the opening two meetings. By the way, SKA itself has not scored more than two goals out of five in the previous four matches.
We're betting on an individual SKA total of less than 2.5 goals for 1.97
Bet on the total total
After such a productive match, we don't expect a lot of goals scored. Kudashov's team will probably play in a more conservative style and pay more attention to defense. Moreover, the guests have an excellent goalkeeping duo at their disposal, which is capable of neutralizing any danger at their gates.
We bet on a total of less than 5.5 for 1.77
