CSKA - Lada. Betting Tip (cf 1.65) and bets on the KHL match

Current form

CSKA is still in ninth place in the West and is gradually falling behind the top eight in the conference. Igor Nikitin's team scored only 29 points in 30 games, while even SKA has one more scoring point and played three fewer matches than the hosts. The Red and blue are in terrible shape and many are talking about the possible resignation of the head coach. In the last 11 matches, the club from the capital of Russia has scored only three wins and only once clung to the points, losing in overtime. In the last away series of matches, Nikita Nesterov's squad beat Ak Bars (4:1), but immediately after that they were defeated in Minsk (2:5). After returning home, the Muscovites lost in the SKA army derby (1:4).

In the first period, the hosts managed to restrain the pressure of the opponent, but the problems began in the second 20 minutes. CSKA conceded two goals in the second leg of the match and was able to close the gap only a little less than five minutes before the end of regular time. Denis Guryanov scored a goal that gave hope to the red and blue, but they had already conceded twice and were left without points again.

Daniel Sprong remains the top scorer for CSKA. The Dutchman has scored 30 goals (12+18) this season.

Disqualifications and injuries

Danila Moiseev will not play in the next match.

Current form

Lada retains the penultimate place in the conference and can generally be satisfied with the current state of affairs. The team from Tolyatti has earned 23 points in 30 matches and is ahead of Sochi by four points, but the Leopards have two meetings in reserve. The team led by Pavel Desyatkov performed poorly during October, but this month the guests are showing good results. They won five out of nine games in November, while facing very strong opponents. At the end of the last home series, the Filins proved to be stronger than Neftekhimik (2:1), but could not cope with the pressure of Avangard (0:3). On the road, the Volga team managed to lose in Cherepovets (0:2), but a day later they celebrated their success in Sochi (5:3).

The match on the Bolshoi Ice began for Lada with a missed puck in the first minute, however, Artem Zemchenok and Andrey Altybarmakyan brought their partners ahead even before the end of the first segment of the meeting. The Owls did not sit back defensively and continued to put pressure on the opponent's goal. Riley Savchuk, Andrey Altybarmakyan and Nikita Mikhailov made the score indecent, and the two goals they conceded later did not affect the outcome of the match.

Dmitry Kugryshev moved to 72nd place in the list of the league's top scorers. The forward of the Tolyatti club scored 18 points (4+14) in the goal+pass system.

Disqualifications and injuries
