Bars vs Norilsk Prediction 11 November 2026
🔊 Norilsk have established themselves in the VHL's top three and won four of their last five games. It is a very different story for Bars Kazan, who sit just 20th and are trying to close the gap to the playoff places. A lack of consistency is not their only problem: they have also struggled defensively, allowing 61 goals this season while scoring only 46. The visitors have a weakness of their own, though. Norilsk have failed to score more than two goals in seven consecutive away games. Last season, the teams each won on the other's ice. Can Bars Kazan make home-ice advantage count this time?

⭐️ Editor's Pick
Four wins in five games make Norilsk the favourites for the upcoming game, but their scoring on the road raises questions. The club from the Arctic has scored fewer than 2.5 goals in seven consecutive away games. Even their successful run has not changed that trend. Bars Kazan often make defensive mistakes, but there is no reason yet to assume the visitors will necessarily capitalise on all of their problems. A bet on Norilsk's scoring therefore looks preferable to a bet on the result. My pick is Norilsk Team Total Under 2.5 Goals.
