Ak Bars finally pleased the fans with a victory in the previous meeting, although they had lost twice in three matches before. SKA is also going through a difficult period and quite often loses points even in those matches where it has a good chance of success. The Petersburgers recently lost to Torpedo, missing the decisive goal almost before the siren. In Kazan, the guests will have to meet with a fairly organized opponent, so you definitely shouldn't expect an easy walk. In our betting tip, we will look at the features of the game of both teams and determine the bet
Command Analysis
Ak Bars Kazan
After a major defeat against Avangard (0-4), Kazan needed to improve in front of their own fans, and in the match against Amur, the team managed to achieve the desired result. Already in the fifth minute, Denis Zernov opened the scoring, and at the beginning of the second period, Grigory Denisenko increased the advantage. Ravil Yakupov soon scored, bringing the score to 3:0. Khabarovsk responded with one goal, but they could not achieve more. Maxim Arefyev blocked 24 shots and helped Ak Bars win 3-1.
In general, Kazan's performances are still difficult to call stable. Of the last five meetings, the team won only two, and before defeating Amur, they lost to Avangard and Traktor (1:3). But on the defensive, Anvar Gatiyatulin's wards rarely allow their opponents to throw too much. Even in unsuccessful matches, the overall total remains low, as the team itself prefers to act rather cautiously. There are also difficulties with performance, and in the previous five matches Ak Bars managed to score only seven goals.
SKA St. Petersburg
The Petersburgers could have saved the meeting with the Torpedo, but in the end they were completely without points. During the match, SKA lost 1-3 and for a long time could not find an opportunity to return to the game. It was only in the final period that Danil Aimurzin reduced the gap, and Matvey Korotky restored equality 45 seconds before the siren. It seemed that things were going to overtime, but Nizhny Novgorod managed to organize another attack. Egor Vinogradov scored the winning goal 14 seconds before the end, setting the final score 4:3.
This defeat was the third for SKA in the last four meetings. Earlier, the team lost to CSKA (1:3) and Avtomobilist (1:3), and won the only victory in this segment over Siberia (6:3). Moreover, that particular duel turned out to be an exception in terms of performance. In other matches, the offense does not always manage to create enough dangerous moments. There are also questions about defense, which sometimes makes serious mistakes at the most inopportune moments. This was especially noticeable in the Torpedo game.
Ak Bars has rarely held productive meetings lately, as it prefers to control the game and not take too many risks when attacking. Even when Kazan are facing serious problems ahead, they try not to let the opponent freely dispose of the puck near their own goal. SKA can't be called a team that regularly performs well either. Petersburgers are able to have a bright segment, as it was in the final period with Torpedo, but it is not always possible to maintain such a pace throughout the meeting.
In Kazan, the guests will probably have to face a fairly dense defense. After recent setbacks, the hosts are unlikely to want to get involved in an open exchange of attacks, especially against an opponent who knows how to use free space. We assume that most of the time the teams will act cautiously, and the number of really dangerous moments will be limited. Therefore, we expect a relatively calm match without a lot of abandoned goals.
Our betting tip is a total of less than 5.5 goals in 1.59
