LiontipsNeftekhimik - Ak Bars. KHL match betting tip and bets
Command Analysis
Current form
The petrochemical company occupies the fifth position in the East and does not intend to give it to the Tractor. The team led by Igor Grishin has scored 29 points in 25 matches and shows a fairly strong level of hockey. Now the hosts are level with the bears on points, but they managed to break away from the competitors from the bottom of the table. In general, wolves can get to a Motorist, but for this they need to keep winning. At the end of the away series, Nizhnekamsk defeated Traktor (4:3), and after returning home, they won with a minimum score against Salavat Yulaev (1:0).
Current form
Ak Bars remains one of the leaders not only of its conference, but of the league as a whole. Anvar Gatiyatullin's team managed to gain a foothold in the top three in the East and have 32 points in their piggy bank after 24 matches. Kazan residents may give the second place to the Avant-Garde, but on the whole the situation looks very comfortable for the guests. The Cats showed a crazy level of play in October and won all the matches of the month. In November, they started with a defeat against Lada (3:4, OT), and then lost points in Minsk (3:4) and Yaroslavl (1:3).

1.80Tip and bets
Neftekhimik continues to show very strong and high-quality hockey, despite the fact that the team from the Republic of Tatarstan still has a negative goal difference. Igor Grishin's team knows how to achieve the desired result and has repeatedly outplayed the club's strengths in the current regular season. Ak Bars caught the expected decline and, after a bright game in October, began to give up. We think that Nizhnekamsk will not lose to the leopards outright and will score points.
