Zauralye vs Gornyak Uchaly Prediction 8 November 2026
🔊 Zauralye Kurgan continue to slide down the VHL standings, and Gornyak Uchaly have already dropped out of the playoff places.

The visitors also began November with a loss to Omskie Krylya (1:2). Last season’s game in Kurgan ended with the home side winning in overtime. Can Zauralye Kurgan repeat that result, or will the Ural side take advantage of their opponents’ problems?

⭐️ Editor's Pick
Zauralye Kurgan's defence has been slipping regularly of late: they have allowed 18 goals in five games, though they have scored ten themselves in regulation. Gornyak Uchaly have allowed 11 goals over the same span. The head-to-head record is also worth noting: in four of their last five meetings, the teams have combined for more than five goals. Given those defensive numbers, our pick is over 4.5 total goals.
