Dynamo vs Sibir Novosibirsk Prediction 20 November 2025
🔊 Dynamo Moscow are set to host Sibir Novosibirsk on their home ice as part of the KHL regular season. The hosts have opted for a change in head coach, but an immediate positive impact has yet to materialize. Meanwhile, the visitors have been entrenched in a full-blown playing crisis for over a month, struggling to find their way out.
Head-to-Head
The rivals have already faced off this season, and it was just a week ago. In Novosibirsk, Sibir suffered another defeat, losing 2-3, despite taking the early lead and playing quite aggressively. However, the "White and Blues" capitalized on their opportunities perfectly, with forward Nikita Gusev scoring the winning goal, and he remains in top form.
Head-to-head statistics Dynamo - Sibir Novosibirsk

Dynamo Moscow Team Overview
The "White-Blues" have embarked on a radical overhaul right in the middle of the season, which seems like a somewhat questionable decision. The hosts have suffered four defeats in their last five matches, and despite commendable efforts both offensively and defensively, they repeatedly come up short. Nevertheless, Dynamo remain in the playoff zone of the Western Conference, although they are now closer to the lower end of the standings than to the leaders. The team can't boast either offensive efficiency (80 goals) or exemplary defense (71 goals conceded).
Match Results: Dynamo Moscow

Sibir Novosibirsk Team Overview
The visitors' downfall this season already seems complete. The team has suffered 13 consecutive defeats and is rapidly losing its chances of making the Gagarin Cup playoffs. Their defensive play is particularly dismal, having conceded 94 goals, the worst record in the conference. Sibir's performance in their own zone is beyond criticism. This season has already seen two coaching changes here, but no positive changes have occurred. Rescuing the season will be extremely challenging.

🏒 Projected Lineups
Dynamo: Podyapolsky - Ozhiganov, Pylenkov - Sikura, Weal, Gusev
Sibir: Krasotkin - Zhukov, Alanov - Wilson, Tkachev, Chekhovich
🥅 Goalkeepers
Dynamo's goaltender Vladislav Podyapolsky remains one of the league's most consistent players in his role. The former Lada player boasts an average save percentage of 92.8% and has been a crucial asset to his team on numerous occasions. The "White-Blues'" struggles are certainly not rooted in their last line of defense.
Sibir's goalie Anton Krasotkin is barely maintaining a save percentage of 90.9%. Despite his heroic efforts in goal, the team continues to lose and drop points repeatedly. His defense offers him little support.
