The matches in the recently started "Ice Hockey. VHL. Regular Season" championship continue. The game will take place at the stadium Кристалл (Самара) - 18 March 2026 year.
These teams have not played against each other for a long time, so when predicting, the head-to-head history should not be considered..
Let's try to understand and analyze which team is stronger.
CSK VVS: It is in thirtieth place in the standings out of 33. The team is in awful form.
In recent matches, the club has shown low scoring in home games. Let's take a look at the statistics:
The last time год назад the team played an away match against the club АКМ Тульская область. An exciting shootout with plenty of goals undoubtedly delighted the fans. The team should forget this painful away defeat and move on.. Previously the team ЦСК ВВС played an away match against the club Химик Воскресенск, it took place год назад. The match was exciting with шайбами scored. The teams played without worrying about their own goals, which resulted in 5 goals scored шайб.
Rubin: Occupies fourth place in the standings out of 33. The team is in good form.
Statistics show that the team has a small difference between goals scored and conceded шайбами. Let's take a look at the statistics:
The last time the club Рубин played a home match against the team Зауралье. The match was not boring, as the total goals exceeded 3.5, and each of the teams managed to score. However, the home team clearly demonstrated superiority. In the previous match год назад the team played a home match against the club Омские Крылья. This match was dominated by the home team. Their attack was in great form..

Izhstal IzhevskTeams with low scoring records in their recent matches are expected to have a tightly contested game with few goals. These teams tend to play defensively and struggle to score. Therefore, it is likely that the match will also be low-scoring and end with a low score. The teams' playing styles and recent results suggest that a low-scoring game with few goals can be expected.
Prediction for the Rubin - Arsenal Tula match: I lean towards Rubin's victory due to its home advantage and stronger lineup. The visitors will likely score at least one goal, but they usually lack the firepower to beat strong opponents. Head-to-head matches between the teams are often high-scoring, and this game should be no exception. Therefore, Rubin is expected to win with both teams scoring.
