Ak Bars - Siberia: betting tip (cf. 1.85) and bets on the KHL match

Ak Bars has changed a lot in the summer. Alexander Barabanov, Dmitry Yashkin, Nathan Todd and Ilya Safonov left the team, so the losses in the attack turned out to be decent. For a long time, Kazan hardly made any big signings at all. Alexey Byvaltsev came in, and closer to the start of the season, the club signed Kevin Hayes. The American has played more than 800 games in the NHL and should add power in the center of the attack.

The preseason was mixed. Ak Bars played six matches and won half of them. There were defeats from Neftekhimik, Dynamo Moscow and Minsk. But the ending has already turned out better. First, Kazan beat Spartak 2-1, and then calmly dealt with the Shanghai Dragons — 4-0. So the team improved a bit by the start of the season.

Siberia worked much more actively in the summer. The main transfer is Evgeny Kuznetsov. Besides him, Egor Korshkov, Stepan Nikulin, Darren Dietz and several other players arrived. The lineup has become more interesting, especially the offense. At the same time, Yaroslav Luzenkov retained the post of head coach after the team reached the playoffs last season.

Novosibirsk players also looked good in the preseason. It was difficult at the Minsk Cup, but then the team improved at the Blinov Cup. Siberia beat Avangard 5:2, scored six goals against Neftekhimik, and in the last match defeated Severstal 4-0. As a result, four wins in seven preseason matches and a pretty good end to the preparation.
