Command Analysis

MHC Dynamo

Current form
This season, Dynamo did not avoid difficult stretches during the regular season, but still confidently held on to the middle of the Golden Division table. The team had a fight with teammates from St. Petersburg for the fifth place, which gave them the right to play in the playoffs. As a result, the Muscovites lost five points and took the sixth place. Dynamo played in the play-in against Krylia Sovetov, and the series turned out to be stubborn. The blue and white team won the first match 3-2, but lost in the second (0:2). The denouement of the confrontation was vivid. Artur Talipov's team scored ten goals against the opponent and reached the playoffs - 10:4 at the end of the third match. The team failed the first match against Loko in Yaroslavl, losing 0:4. However, the squad approached the second match with a combative character and was able to defeat the railwaymen with a score of 3:2 after a shootout. The series is a 1-1 draw and there are two home games ahead.

Loko

Current form
Loko finished the regular season in third place in the Golden Division of the Western Conference, directly made it to the 1/8 finals of the Kharlamov Cup and waited for its opponent at the end of the play-in round. In the first match of the three-game winning streak, Yaroslavl won 4-0, where goalkeeper Stepan Safonov blocked all 23 shots on his own goal and made the first cracker in the playoffs this season. The teams spent the first period on equal terms, but it didn't come to an abandoned puck. But the second segment was productive. The railwaymen scored three unanswered goals against their opponent in the second 20 minutes, and in the third half they consolidated the advantage with another goal. The last match was held on equal terms, ended in a 2-2 draw, overtime did not bring any goals, but in the shootout the guests from Moscow turned out to be stronger, and the youth of Lokomotiv could not make a single free throw out of four. Having lost one match of the confrontation, the squad made it difficult for themselves to reach the quarterfinals, as it would be very difficult on the opponent's ice in Moscow.
Interesting betting trends
- The team has averaged 3.7 goals in the last 10 games.
- In the last 10 games, the club has not suffered a single defeat in regular time.
