We have no head-to-head record for these teams in our data, although both recent lists show Avangard Omsk beating Neftekhimik on 8 October 2026. Avangard Omsk won 3 and lost 2 of their last 5, most recently beating Traktor Chelyabinsk on 18 October 2026, while Neftekhimik won 2 and lost 3 of theirs.

Our call is Avangard Omsk to win, with a confidence of 63%. The basis is that they are the market favourite once the margin is removed, and the recent-results record leaning to them moved the market chance of 62.0% up by 1.3 points. We cannot see line-ups, injuries or the starting goaltenders, which is the main risk to the call.
