Analysis and forecast for the match KHL “Dynamo” Mn – “Metallurg” (10/17/2024)
It’s hard to believe in Metallurg this regular season. As soon as the fans start to trust the team and set themselves up to consistently achieve good results, they immediately become angry. Since the beginning of the season, Andrei Razin has received a lot of criticism. Of course, Magnitogorsk is the current winner of the Gagarin Cup. The bar has not been raised any higher and cannot be lowered.
Therefore, the champion’s demand is doubly high. However, the Foxes’ recent four-game winning streak made us believe that the crisis had been overcome. In this short period of time, Metallurg beat Lada (2-1), humiliated CSKA (7-0), defeated Spartak (5-2) and defeated Dinamo Moscow (5-3).
Then there was a very difficult match against Torpedo, in which Magnitogorsk lost 4-5. But here it is worth paying tribute to the car manufacturers. They have acquired an elegant shape that can only be envied. Andrei Razin’s team quickly recovered by beating Avangard (4-2). But it’s not that simple.
As the coach said, in the last match against Ak Bars (0:5), Magnitka suffered the toughest defeat during his work with him. Razin noticed that his players lost in everything, especially in discipline, desire and practically did not catch the puck. It turns out that Metallurg is still unstable and plays intermittently.
Dinamo Minsk is no better. Every season, the “Bisons” have to fight to be among the top eight in the Western Conference. This regular season was no exception. At first, Dmitry Kvartalnov’s team looked good, but they mostly stole points in meetings with equal opponents.
Dynamo is inferior to the KHL leaders in many aspects. It seems that Vadim Shipachev joined the team in the summer and things should have improved. However, it only seemed that way. After seven games without points, Kvartalnov decided to remove the forward from the lineup. Strange, but it worked.
After missing a game, Shipachev restarted and scored points in each of the last three games. Including scoring two goals. Recently, the Minsk team even managed to beat SKA 4:2. This was the first time the Zubrovs had a win over such a tough team this season. Before that, they suffered three defeats in a row: in St. Petersburg, Sochi and Severstal.
Dmitry Kvartalnov’s team did not stop there. In the last match they defeated CSKA (5:4 overtime). There were just over three minutes left before the final siren sounded, when the “Bisons” lost 2:4. Shipachev scored the third goal for the Minsk team and Brady Lyle tied the score. The author of the assistance is Vadim. In overtime, Dynamo had 35 seconds to score the winning goal.
Shipachev has one point left to catch up with league record holder Sergei Mozyakin, who has 928 (419+509) points in 842 matches. Shipachev has a total of 927 (291+636) points in 1000 games during his league career, including playoffs. Will he do it in the match against Magnitogorsk?
Overall, after two close wins over CSKA and SKA, Dinamo Minsk will be inspired. But how much effort did he spend? There is a suspicion that the spirit and stamina of “Zubrov” will not be enough to win the meeting with “Metallurg”, which will tear and throw after a humiliating defeat to “Ak Bars”.
We offer a bet that Magnitogorsk will not lose and the total will be over 4.5 goals, for 2.18. Meeting these teams should be productive. Especially considering how fast Vadim Shipachev played. He is clearly determined to continue scoring goals. I don’t think the Minsk team will win in regulation time due to possible fatigue. But no one rules out a tie after 60 minutes.
Also, you can bet that Shipachev will score more than 1.5 points and beat Mozyakin’s record, because the game promises to be brilliant.
Tender: “Metallurg” will not lose and the total will be more than 4.5 goals in 2.18.
