HC Kaluga vs CSK VVS Prediction 9 November 2026
🔊 For a VHL newcomer, HC Kaluga have looked quite confident so far. They remain in contention for a top-ten spot, although their recent results have been uneven. The loss to Neftyanik was particularly disappointing. Things are much tougher for CSK VVS Samara. The Samara side are stuck near the bottom of the standings and still struggle badly on the road. Their main problem is defence: they have allowed 16 goals in their last five games. HC Kaluga, though, also regularly allow opponents to score. The teams will meet for the first time, and their current defensive problems suggest this could be a high-scoring game.

Match Results: CSK VVS Samara
First-Period Prediction
CSK VVS Samara scored in the first period in 8 of their last 9 games in the tournament. However, HC Kaluga have allowed an average of 0.4 goals in first periods over their last ten games - a significant argument against this pick. Even so, the visitors’ scoring streak makes CSK VVS Samara first-period team total over 0.5 goals worth considering at odds of 2.15.
Prediction on the result
HC Kaluga have not won in regulation for seven straight games - the X2 bet has landed in every one of them. CSK VVS Samara have also gone 12 straight games without a regulation win, so backing the visitors to win outright would be hard to justify. We pick CSK VVS Samara double chance (X2) in regulation at odds of 2.15.
Total Goals Prediction
The total has been over 3.5 goals in 8 of HC Kaluga’s last 9 home games. CSK VVS Samara have allowed an average of 3.25 goals per away game this season. At the same time, fewer than 4.5 goals have been scored in 6 of HC Kaluga’s last 7 games: both trends could hold if the game has four goals, but the bet leaves little margin. We pick match total over 3.5 goals at odds of 1.33.
Reliable Bet
At least one goal was scored in the first period in 8 of CSK VVS Samara’s last 9 games. CSK VVS Samara scored in the first period in 8 of their last 9 games. We’re taking first-period total over 0.5 goals at odds of 1.26.

⭐️ Editor's Pick
CSK VVS Samara have yet to sort out their defensive play. The Samara team have allowed 16 goals in regulation over their last five games. HC Kaluga are far from faultless, too: Dynamo St. Petersburg and Gornyak-UGMK each scored three against them, while Neftyanik scored four. Both teams have problems, then, and it is hard to expect a low-scoring game. More than four goals were scored in two of CSK VVS Samara's last three games, too. Given those results, I expect at least five goals. My pick is over 4.5 goals.
