Amur Khabarovsk vs SKA St. Petersburg Prediction 6 December 2025
🔊 Khabarovsk's Amur are set to host St. Petersburg's SKA in a KHL regular season clash. The hosts continue to "sink," suffering defeat after defeat for the past two weeks. The visitors, on the other hand, have made significant strides in the last month of autumn and clearly have no intention of halting their progress. Their mental uplift is evident.
Head-to-Head
In 2024, the rivals faced off three times, and the outcome remained consistent-SKA emerged victorious each time. Notably, the matches never extended beyond regulation time and were quite high-scoring. Over 180 minutes of play, they collectively netted a total of 29 goals, with the current visitors accounting for 19 of them.
Head-to-head statistics Amur Khabarovsk - SKA St. Petersburg
Amur Khabarovsk Team Overview
The club from Khabarovsk has slipped into a full-blown slump, suffering five consecutive defeats, including two matches where they failed to score at all. Surprisingly, this hasn't knocked them out of the eighth spot in the Eastern Conference, but such a trend can't last forever. Particularly concerning is their offensive output (71 goals scored) and defensive performance (91 goals conceded), which significantly lags behind the other top-8 teams in the conference. Their home losses are especially troubling as they were expected to help maintain a positive record.

SKA St. Petersburg Team Overview
Igor Larionov's squad seems to have addressed their issues by mid-season. They have secured five wins in their last six matchups and are showing steady progress in the standings. However, they have yet to solidify their place in the Western Conference's playoff spots and cannot rest easy. A key limiting factor remains their rather modest scoring record, with only 90 goals to their name-one of the lowest tallies among the top eight in the conference. The team needs to improve in this area, and St. Petersburg has the internal resources to do so.

🏒 Projected Lineups
Amur: Dorozhko - Mishchenko, Dyblenko - Lee, Broadhurst, Galchenyuk
SKA: Pleshkov - Murphy, Savikov - Zykov, Khairullin, Plotnikov
🥅 Goalkeepers
Amur's goaltender Maksim Dorozhko remains one of the top players in his position within the league. The former Vityaz player boasts a 93.1% save percentage and has recorded 4 shutouts. The team's numerous setbacks are hardly his fault, as the defensive issues run deeper.
SKA's goalie Artemiy Pleshkov has made a strong return to the club's main squad. The young netminder averages an 87% save rate, but his improvement is evident. He has delivered several outstanding performances, significantly contributing to the team's recent successes.
Editor's Prediction
We have two playoff contenders here, neither of which can boast impressive scoring records. In fact, in nine of the last ten head-to-head matchups in Khabarovsk, no more than five goals were scored. Moreover, this trend is evident in ten of Amur's last eleven home games as well. We believe both patterns are likely to remain relevant. Our bet is on total under 5.5 goals.No comments
