Command Analysis
Spartak Moscow
Spartak started to gain momentum, came out of the crisis and won four matches in a row. First, Alexey Zhamnov's team beat the outsider Sochi in two matches and went on a tour of the Far East. In Khabarovsk, the red and white won 2-1 against Amur, thanks to goals from Alexander Belyaev and Christian Yarosh. But Admiral was defeated in Vladivostok (5:1), scoring four unanswered goals for the sailors in the third period. At this stage, the team has 20 points and is in sixth place in the West.
CSKA Moscow
The Army team does not notice any rivals on its way and is the leader of the Western Conference. The gap between Lokomotiv and Severstal is only two points, and it is not recommended to lose points in the Spartak derby. In the last calendar match, CSKA met with Neftekhimik and confidently beat the wolves in Moscow (4:1). This victory was the 12th in a row, and the series looks very serious. Igor Nikitin's team is the most reliable team in the Western Conference (28 goals conceded) and the entire KHL along with Amur.
Spartak is approaching the match with four wins behind them, but the Army team's series looks much more serious – 12 wins in a row. At the start of the regular season, the red-whites had already defeated their main opponent, and now Nikitin's team has a great chance to take revenge for the defeat on their ice. At the Megasport arena, the hosts have lost in the last five matches, but the red and blue have not yet conceded on someone else's ice. In our opinion, the visitors will succeed thanks to a powerful attacking game – at least four goals have been scored in six of the last eight games.
Betting Tip – CSKA victory in the match with a coefficient of 1.70
