Lokomotiv - Spartak: betting tip (cf 1.65) and bets on the KHL match

Current form

Slowly but surely, the Yaroslavl armored train overcomes the resistance of the eighth Western Conference team. In the first two matches in Yaroslavl, the Muscovites took one game (2-1, OT) and intended to build on their success at home. The third match was crucial, in which Yaroslavl managed to gain the upper hand in overtime (4-3, OT) and put the opponent in a difficult position, since another defeat actually brought the end of the season closer for Spartak.

In the fourth game, Yaroslavl was lucky at the very beginning of the game – already during the first shift, Rushan Rafikov's long-range shot caught the home goalkeeper Alexander Georgiev by surprise. They managed to consolidate the advantage in the second period – Maxim Berezkin interrupted the opponent's attack, taking the puck from Ivan Morozov on his blue line, quickly went one-on-one and outsmarted Georgiev, opening the scoring with his goals in the cup round. In the remaining time, Lokomotiv did not allow their superiority to be doubted and confidently brought the match to an important victory (2:0), and Yaroslavl goalkeeper Daniil Isaev deservedly earned his first biscuit in the current playoffs.

Current form

To succeed in a series of relegation games with the best team in the Western Conference and the reigning KHL champion, the capital's team needs to jump above its head, taking into account the sad experience of the regular tournament, in which Spartak players failed to catch a single game. The team actively fights, not giving up in difficult situations, but the series somehow goes according to the schedule, which the Muscovites can not arrange in any way. Having returned from Yaroslavl with a victory in one match and a tie in the series, Spartak could, if not create a sensation on home ice, at least strengthen his self-confidence if he took at least one of the two matches. And there were definitely chances of that.

In the third game, the Muscovites had to catch up with the opponent all the time, and they succeeded three times, including one and a half minutes before the end of regular time with their empty net. In overtime, Spartak were on the rise, they were more active, had more possession of the puck, and threw more often, but the victory went to the opponent (3:4, OT). Apparently, this game took so much physical and emotional strength that the team clearly lacked freshness in the fourth match. The result (0:2) and the unpleasant prospect of ending the season in the next game in Yaroslavl.
