Our pick, Avangard Omsk to win at locked odds 1.85, won. It was published with 51% confidence.
Before the start the best price on Avangard Omsk to win had shortened from 1.85 to 1.805, so the market moved towards this pick after it was published.
Avangard Omsk meet Neftekhimik in the KHL on 8 October 2026, and the market gives Avangard Omsk a slight edge at 1.85 against 1.95 for Neftekhimik. The implied chance is 51.3% for Avangard Omsk and 48.7% for Neftekhimik.
We lack a head-to-head record. Neftekhimik won 3 of 5 recent games, the latest against Sibir Novosibirsk on 4 October 2026, while Avangard Omsk won 2 of 4, the latest against Lada Togliatti on 2 October 2026.
Avangard Omsk to win is the pick, with 51% confidence. As market favourite they start from 51.3%, which recent results, leaning slightly to Neftekhimik, lowered by 0.7 points. With so little between the clubs, and team news and the starting goaltenders not available, the game could go either way.
