Sibir Novosibirsk vs Amur Khabarovsk Prediction 21 December 2025
🔊 Novosibirsk's Sibir will host Khabarovsk's Amur on their home ice as part of the regular KHL season. The hosts are firmly anchored at the bottom of the Eastern Conference standings, but have recently been striving to climb out of this challenging situation. Meanwhile, the visitors are tenaciously holding onto a spot in the conference's playoff eight.
Head-to-Head
The rivals have faced each other three times this season in September, with the current hosts holding a 2-1 edge in victories. It's worth noting the relatively low scoring in their head-to-head matchups. Together, they managed to net just 9 goals during this stretch. However, much has changed since then.
Head-to-head statistics Sibir Novosibirsk - Amur Khabarovsk
Sibir Novosibirsk Team Overview
The club from Novosibirsk has been showing relatively decent results in December. The hosts have secured three victories in their last five matches, with only one regulation-time loss. It's hard to call this a tournament surge, especially since Sibir remain at the bottom of the Eastern Conference, but the progress is evident. However, there's still plenty of work to be done. The team has scored only 79 goals, one of the lowest tallies in the conference. This becomes even more concerning against the backdrop of conceding 120 goals.
Match Results: Sibir Novosibirsk
Amur Khabarovsk Team Overview
The team under Belarusian coach Alexander Andrievsky, who took the helm just two weeks ago, has shown a commendable performance in December. Amur have secured two wins and suffered only one regulation loss in their last five matches. This form has allowed them to maintain their position within the playoff bracket in the Eastern Conference and look to the future with optimism. However, the standings are incredibly tight, and the level of competition is exceptionally high. There's no room for complacency. Moreover, issues with low scoring persist, as they've managed to net only 79 goals.

🏒 Projected Lineups
Sibir: Krasotkin - Zaitsev, Priskie - Beck, Abramov, Wilson
Amur: Dorozhko - Yevseyev, Mishchenko - Petkov, Grachev, Urakov
🥅 Goalies
Sibir's goaltender Anton Krasotkin continues to deliver commendable performances. The former Admiral player saves an average of 90.9% of shots and has recorded one shutout. It's quite remarkable to see such stats from a team sitting at the bottom of the conference.
Amur's goalie Maksim Dorozhko remains one of the top performers in his position across the league. The former Vityaz player boasts an average save percentage of 93.1% and has already secured four shutouts. There are no signs of decline or unexpected errors in his play. His consistency between the pipes remains at an exceptionally high level.
Editorial Prediction
The hosts are gradually starting to deliver decent results, finding their path to local success through increased scoring efficiency. In fact, at least five goals have been scored in nine of Sibir's last ten home games. A similar trend is evident in six of Amur's away matches, primarily due to mutual defensive issues that both teams attempt to mask with heightened offensive activity. We believe these trends are likely to continue, making our bet on over 4.5 goals a solid choice.No comments
