LiontipsLokomotiv - Ak Bars: betting tip (cf 1.70) and bets on the KHL match
Command Analysis
Current form
Lokomotiv was stable throughout the regular season and finished the first part of the season on the first line in the conference without any problems. Bob Hartley's team beat Spartak with some problems (4:1 in the series), and then relatively easily dealt with Salavat Yulaev (4:0), while the goalkeeper of the hosts Daniil Isaev had three meetings to zero. The railwaymen created a real miracle, having won back in the series with Avangard (4:3 in the series). They lost 1-3 during the confrontation and saved in the last minute of the sixth game, and then beat Omsk at home.
In the final series, Alexander Yelesin's squad was able to withstand the starting pressure of Kazan and came out charged for the second leg. Alexander Radulov, Denis Alekseev and Byron Fraz provided their team with a comfortable advantage in the second leg and calmly brought the matter to the first victory on the home court.

Current form
Few people believed in Ak Bars at the start of the season, because the team from Kazan looked rather bleak at the beginning of the regular season. The Greens beat Traktor in five games (4:1 in the series), and then unexpectedly defeated Dinamo Minsk (4:0 in the series), although many were betting on the success of the bison. The club from the Republic of Tatarstan showed its best hockey in the confrontation with Metallurg (4:1 in the series) and left Andrey Razin's team without a final.
Anvar Gatiyatullin's team got a lot of time to rest and recover before the finals. They started the game in Yaroslavl quite cheerfully and attacked more, but could not turn the game advantage into abandoned goals. After the defeat in the second period, the guests faced a very difficult task, which they were able to cope with only partially. Mitchell Miller was able to win back one goal, scoring the majority in the third period, but Kazan did not have enough for more.
Disqualifications and injuries
All the Kazan leaders will play in Yaroslavl.
Interesting betting trends
- On average, Kazan players receive eight minutes of penalty time per match.
- According to statistics, the Leopards make 30 shots on target.

Tip and bets
The locomotive managed to roll into the final series fairly quickly. Bob Hartley's team restrained the pressure of the opponent at the beginning of the meeting and seized the initiative in the second 20 minutes. Kazan, on the other hand, could not show their maximum at the beginning of the battle for the Gagarin Cup and did not create many chances at the gate of Daniil Isaev. We think that the Volga residents will continue to dictate their terms to the guests and will be able to double their advantage in the confrontation.
The betting tip is a victory for Lokomotiv, taking into account overtime in 1.70
Betting on an individual total
Daniil Isaev played one of the best matches in this playoff at the start of the series against Kazan. Goalkeeper Yaroslavtsev helped out his partners a lot, and the defenders of the Locomotive acted reliably. Ak Bars did not show the offensive game that the team had throughout the playoffs. We believe that Yaroslavl will not allow the opponent to score more than one goal again.
We take Ak Bars' individualtotal of less than two goals for 1.78
