Ak Bars is an Avangard. KHL match betting tip and bets

Current form

Ak Bars scored points in the opening two games of this season, while looking pretty good. After that, Anvar Gatiyatullin's team suffered three defeats in a row, losing to Avtomobilist (3:6) and Metallurg (3:6) and Petrochemicals (1:2). After returning home, the Leopards finally pulled themselves together and achieved success in the derby against Salavat Yulaev (3:1). At the moment, the defense of the hosts looks unreliable. The Greens have conceded 19 goals in six matches, and Mikhail Berdine is still winning the competition against Timur Bilyalov at the last turn with a modest 86.57% of deflected shots.

Current form

Even before the start of the season, Avangard was considered one of the main favorites in the East and in the league as a whole. Guy Boucher's team started with an unpleasant defeat against Ak Bars on its own court (1:2), but was able to rehabilitate itself and beat Amur (2:1), Moscow (7:4) and Minsk (5:4, B) Dynamo in turn, and in the last game it turned out to be stronger than Salavat Yulaev (3:2, FROM). The newcomers of the club are doing great. Konstantin Okulov scored points in all games of the current season (2+4), and American Andrew Poturalski made a good start (1+4). One of the old-timers is Nikolai Prokhorkin (4+1), who is the best sniper and scored a hat-trick against Dynamo Moscow.
