Torpedo Nizhny Novgorod 2 · Severstal Cherepovets 3
Severstal Cherepovets won
Our pick, Torpedo Nizhny Novgorod to win at locked odds 1.66, lost. It was published with 57% confidence, leaving a 43% chance for Severstal Cherepovets to win, the outcome that came in.
Before the start the best price on Torpedo Nizhny Novgorod to win had shortened from 1.66 to 1.55, so the market moved towards this pick after it was published.
Torpedo Nizhny Novgorod are favoured over Severstal Cherepovets in the KHL on 8 October 2026, at 1.66 against 2.216. Once the bookmaker margin is removed, the implied chance is 57.2% for Torpedo Nizhny Novgorod and 42.8% for Severstal Cherepovets.
We have no head-to-head record for this pairing. Recent form is level, with each club winning 4 of its last 5: Torpedo Nizhny Novgorod last beat Sochi on 3 October 2026, and Severstal Cherepovets beat Shanghai Dragons the same day. Their only defeats came against Salavat Yulaev Ufa and Admiral Vladivostok respectively.
We pick Torpedo Nizhny Novgorod to win at 57% confidence. Recent results do nothing to separate the sides, so they left the market chance of 57.2% unchanged and the confidence simply follows it. Team news and the starting goaltenders are not available, which is the main uncertainty here.
