Riga will play their sixth game in a row at home, which is nice. The team is not travelling to save strength, but the team has its problems. The biggest one is productivity, only the "newcomer" from Vladivostok has scored fewer goals in the competition. Also on the other side of the field, 83 goals conceded is really bad, or it means a clear below average in KHL. The home team's chances of making the playoffs this year are not too high, even though there is still plenty of time until the end of the regular season. Lukáš Radil is the team's most productive player with a score of 4+11, which ranks him 87th in scoring in KHL.
Kazan is also lagging behind its performance in recent years, but the team is much better in the table. The team is a bit better in the finishing, and much stronger defensively, although it's not much by Bars standards. In any case, the visitors are returning to form, having won 3 out of the last 4 league games, twice the team confirmed that the defence is already a bit stronger than at the beginning of competition. Team from Tatarstan managed to win the last two games in Riga by a goal, and this time they should be at least a goal better.
My prediction: AK Bars Kazan in regular time @ 1.64 (bet365)
