- Key Stats and Betting Trends
- Amur Khabarovsk Form
- Lokomotiv Yaroslavl Form
Amur have been shut out twice this season, losing 2-0 against Sibir and CSKA. They managed only 15 shots on goal in Wednesday’s defeat to CSKA and failed to convert their third-period power play.
Their home results have produced a 4-0 win over Dynamo Moscow, a 4-1 defeat against Severstal and the 2-0 loss to CSKA. Amur have therefore scored only once across their last two home matches.
Lokomotiv have won all three away games, conceding four goals in total. They have also held six of their eight opponents to one goal or fewer, providing the strongest statistical support for the Amur team total.
Key Stats and Betting Trends
- Amur have been held to one goal or fewer in four of seven games.
- Lokomotiv have allowed one goal or fewer in six of eight matches.
- Under 5.0 would have produced nine wins, four pushes and two losses across the teams’ 15 combined games.
- Four of Amur’s five defeats have come by at least two goals.
- Every Amur home game has produced fewer than five goals
Amur Khabarovsk Form
Amur return to action after consecutive home defeats against Severstal and CSKA. They conceded six goals across those games while scoring only once, leaving them with a 2-5 record and an average of 1.57 goals per match.
Maxim Dorozhko kept CSKA scoreless for 36 minutes, extending his personal shutout sequence to 122 minutes and 47 seconds before Marat Khairullin broke the deadlock. Derek Barak added a second before the intermission, and Amur were unable to respond.
Alexei Kruchinin made his Amur debut, but the hosts produced only 15 shots and created little sustained pressure. Their power play also failed during the third period, continuing an inconsistent attacking start that has already included two shutout defeats.
Lokomotiv Yaroslavl Form
Lokomotiv recovered from their surprising 5-0 home defeat against Barys by beating Admiral Vladivostok 2-1. That result improved the defending champions to 7-1 and maintained their perfect 3-0 away record.
Alexander Polunin scored both goals during the opening period, with Denis Alexeyev contributing to each. Daniil Isayev protected the lead in goal as Lokomotiv successfully killed Admiral’s power-play opportunities and limited the hosts to one third-period goal.
Lokomotiv’s three away victories have come against CSKA, Traktor and Admiral. They have scored nine goals and conceded four on the road, with all three games remaining below 5.5 total goals.
Verdict
Take Lokomotiv Yaroslavl -1.5, Amur Khabarovsk under 1.5 team goals and Under 5.0 total goals.
Lokomotiv -1.5
