Analysis and prediction for the KHL match “Avangard” – “Sibir” (04/09/2024)
The new KHL season has just started and fans are already looking forward to the Siberian derby. This is always an interesting event. On September 4, Avangard will host Siberia at the G-Drive Arena. The match will start at 16:30 Moscow time.
Last season, Omsk reached the quarter-finals of the Gagarin Cup, losing to Lokomotiv 3-4. Let us recall that the series started quite successfully for the “falcons”. In one of the matches, they lost 0-7. Mikhail Kravets was fired and Sergei Zvyagin was appointed in his place. He will lead the team in the new KHL competition.

Over the summer, Avangard went through a lot of changes. Hockey players like Tomas Yurcho, Andrei Mishurov, Damir Zhafyarov, Nikolai Prokhorkin, Ivan Telegin and Ryan Spooner have left. And that’s not all, the list is much longer. It’s good that we managed to keep Reed Boucher and Vladimir Tkachev, but they got injured in the off-season.
One of the Hawks’ big acquisitions was defenceman Darren Dietz. The Canadian has been playing in the KHL for a long time and is known for his great inclusions in attack and his work on the power play. Spooner should be replaced by Linden Vey, who spent last season in Germany. Stanislav Galiev also seems like a good signing.
Although Avangard lost the Blinov Cup at home. It finished only third out of five teams. The Hawks defeated Barys (4:3 OT) and Lokomotiv (3:2 OT), and lost to Sibir (1:2 OT) and Traktor (2:5). Not a single victory in regular time during this period. It’s confusing. Sergei Zvyagin will spend a lot of time finally getting used to such an important role and addressing all the problems.
Linden Vey has already scored one goal and provided three assists; Dietz scored three points in the four Blinov Cup games using the goal-pass system. Galiev scored the same number. While Tkachev and Boucher are nursing their injuries, these hockey players will have to take charge of the game themselves. In the Siberian derby, however, the outcome may not depend at all on the attack.
Siberia is often associated with a team that strives to play with a defensive approach. This helps it stay afloat among clubs that spend much more money on acquisitions. In terms of composition, the Novosibirsk team really loses to many.

Before the start of the season, the Snowmen did not make many transfers, but they were all signed. Sergey Shirokov, Valentin Pyanov, Dmitry Ovchinnikov, Maxim Karpov, Egor Martynov and Fyodor Gordeev were present. Shirokov will become the captain of Sibir. His experience will certainly help the club. Karpov won the Gagarin Cup together with Metallurg in the last edition.
The Snowmen had a very weak off-season. At the Blinov Cup, the Novosibirsk team lost to Lokomotiv (0-2) and Traktor (0-3), and won against Barys (4-0) and Avangard (2-1 in overtime). Once again, the team shows that it will focus on low-key hockey. In general, it will continue to operate at the same pace, which is boring for fans.
The Hawks must win this game. You shouldn’t focus on the result of a friendly match. Yes, we are unlikely to see a large number of goals. Although last season Omsk beat Sibir 7-2. But there will be no main attacking leaders. Let’s see how Wei behaves in such conditions. Let’s bet that Avangard will win in regular time by 1.90.
Tender: Avangard wins by 1.90.
