Head-to-head statistics Tambov - Bars

Tambov Team Overview
Tambov opened the season with two games, splitting them with one win and one loss. Over their last five outings, theyβve managed just a single victory, falling short in their most recent clash against Neftyanik (3-4). Across their previous 10 matches, Tambov are averaging 2.3 goals per game, but defensive lapses remain a concern as they concede an average of 3.1 goals per contest. At home, however, their attacking output sees a noticeable boost: Tambov average 3.5 goals scored on their own ice, while conceding the same number. Despite this, a clear trend has emerged in their home fixtures-third periods consistently see lower scoring. The under 1.5 total goals in the final frame has hit five times in a row, suggesting that the pace tends to drop off late in games in front of their home crowd.

Bars Team Overview
Bars head into this fixture searching for a way out of a rough patch: they have lost four of their last five games, picking up just one win in that span. Their most recent outing also ended in defeat, underlining the sideβs current inconsistency. Over their last ten games, Bars have averaged just 1.4 goals per match while conceding 2.7, and on the road this season, they have managed only one goal while allowing four. The trends highlight prolonged struggles away from home: Bars have failed to win in regulation time in 12 of their last 13 away fixtures, and rarely surpass the two-goal mark-scoring fewer than 2.5 goals in ten of their last eleven road games. Notably, the second period often proves to be their most productive stretch, even on the road, while the opening twenty minutes tend to be remarkably quiet in terms of scoring.
