LiontipsCSKA - SKA. Betting Tip (cf 1.88) and bets on the KHL match
Command Analysis
Current form
The start of the regular season turned out to be as difficult as possible for CSKA. At first, the team earned almost no points, which is why it could not even gain a foothold in the playoff zone for a long time. Nevertheless, as the season progressed, the Muscovites quite expectedly picked up an excellent pace and steadily began to smash most of the opponents on their way, thanks to which they were able to climb as high as the fourth place in the Western Conference table. In particular, it is worth noting the fact that the team very often has difficulty realizing moments in attack, and mainly relies on the defensive line. On average, he concedes only 2.1 goals per match. Only the Locomotive has a better indicator.
Just before the curtain fell on the regular season, the Army team broke their winning streak, which reached four matches in a row. The team played away from a clear outsider in Siberia, where they just failed to realize themselves in attack and lost in regular time with a difference of one goal (2:3). However, the club immediately rehabilitated itself in front of the fans and regained the lost points, snatching Victoria from Spartak in a shootout (3:2).
Disqualifications and injuries
Recall that striker Moiseev and defender Provolnev will not be able to participate in the upcoming match due to injuries.
Interesting betting trends
- On average, CSKA receives only seven penalty minutes per match.
- The army team completed 21% of the majority's attempts
Current form
This season SKA is playing under the leadership of a new head coach Igor Larionov, who previously led Torpedo. Many expected that with Rotenberg's departure, the club would immediately sparkle with new colors, but this did not happen. Serious changes in the squad, and in general, the restructuring of the army did not allow them to fully realize themselves, but they managed to get a ticket to the playoffs without any problems. The team finished the regular season in fifth place in the Western Conference table, with 81 points. In particular, it is worth noting the very high performance, on average, the St. Petersburg team scored 2.9 goals per match, which is a great indicator.
At the end of the regular season, SKA performed with varying success. The team broke its long winning streak of five matches, playing on the road, where it first lost to Traktor with a one-goal difference (1:2), and then unexpectedly suffered a defeat from Siberia (1:4). Next, the club went to visit the Shanghai Dragons, where it expectedly regained some of the lost points, defeating the opponent with a score of 5:1.
Disqualifications and injuries
Zaitsev, Larionov and Murphy continue to remain in the infirmary.
Interesting betting trends
- SKA averaged 29 shots per match.
- St. Petersburg players on average concede only 2.5 goals per match.

Tip and bets
The bookmakers single out CSKA as the clear favorite in the upcoming match, which we strongly disagree with. Yes, the Muscovites will play in their home arena, where, with the support of the fans, they initially have a slightly better chance of success, but still it should be borne in mind that there is a very serious opponent on the way. SKA, in turn, has consistently achieved success in field meetings, so it will not be difficult for him to create serious problems for his competitor. We believe that in the army derby it is worth taking advantage of an unreasonably high coefficient and betting on a double chance of St. Petersburg.
Our betting tip is that SKA will not lose in 1.92
Once again, we note that CSKA prefers to play defensively this season, which it does quite successfully. The team rarely concedes a large number of goals, but it does not always please fans with its performance. So we suggest that you choose the total less as the second bet.
Betting Tip - total less than 4.5 goals in 1.84
