SKA St. Petersburg vs Dynamo Prediction 4 November 2025
🔊 SKA Saint Petersburg will host Dynamo Moscow on their home ice in another game day of the KHL regular season. The hosts remain outside the Western playoff bracket and don't appear to be favorites in this race. The visitors, on the other hand, have returned to top form and are racking up victories one after another.
Head-to-Head
The most significant clash between the clubs in recent times took place during the 2025 Gagarin Cup playoffs. The rivals faced off in the first round of the Western Conference, where the "white and blues" dominated their opponents with a 4-2 series victory. Although both teams have undergone significant roster changes since then, the balance of power remarkably remains at the same level.
Head-to-head statistics SKA St. Petersburg - Dynamo
SKA St. Petersburg Team Overview
Igor Larionov's squad, after a string of successful matches against underdogs, stumbled once more. A home defeat to the champions from Yaroslavl (2-3) came as no surprise, but there's a more pressing issue. This match clearly highlighted the class difference between the clubs. As it stands, the hosts are unable to compete on equal terms with the Western Conference favorites. With only 58 goals scored, breaking into the top eight in the West will be a daunting task.

Match Results: Dynamo Moscow
🏒 Projected Lineups
SKA: Ivanov - Murphy, Zaitsev - Plotnikov, Blandisi, Grimaldi
Dynamo: Podyapolsky - Ozhiganov, Pylenkov - Gusev, Will, Sikura
🥅 Goalkeepers
SKA's goaltender Sergey Ivanov is gradually improving his stats. On average, he saves only 88.9% of shots, but there's noticeable progress. However, his team still struggles to secure consistent wins over the long haul.
Dynamo's goalie Vladislav Podyapolsky remains one of the most reliable players in his position across the league. The former Lada player averages a save percentage of 94.4% and has recently been in monstrous form. His outstanding performances have been pivotal for the visitors' significant improvement in the third decade of October.
Editorial Prediction
Indeed, on their home turf, SKA remain a formidable challenge for any opponent. However, the current form of the hosts raises significant doubts. The visitors, on the other hand, are clearly on an upward trajectory and are more than capable of achieving a favorable result in Saint Petersburg, boasting four consecutive victories. The hosts could lose control of the game at any moment. Our pick is Dynamo will not lose.
