Lokomotiv Yaroslavl vs Amur Khabarovsk Prediction 22 November 2025
🔊 Yaroslavl Lokomotiv will host Khabarovsk Amur on their home ice as part of the latest game day in the KHL regular season. The hosts remain at the top of the Western Conference standings, but have recently made some costly mistakes. Meanwhile, the visitors are still fighting for the eighth spot in the East, but their form remains too inconsistent.
Head-to-Head
In 2024, the rivals clashed three times, with Lokomotiv emerging victorious in each encounter. However, these triumphs were far from easy. Twice the matches extended beyond regulation time, and only once did the current hosts secure a convincing win with a 5-0 scoreline. It's worth noting the impressive scoring in these matchups-there was never a game with fewer than five goals scored.
Head-to-head statistics Lokomotiv Yaroslavl - Amur Khabarovsk
Lokomotiv Yaroslavl Team Overview
The reigning Gagarin Cup champions have lost their grip. For six consecutive games, the team has alternated results and struggled to return to their usual winning streak. On one hand, this situation doesn't indicate a crisis or slump. On the other, it's no coincidence that rumors about Bob Hartley's departure as head coach have surfaced now. Nevertheless, Lokomotiv have maintained their top spot in the Western Conference standings and have a great opportunity to solidify their position. The hosts still boast the best defensive line in the conference, having conceded only 62 goals.
Match Results: Lokomotiv Yaroslavl
Amur Khabarovsk Team Overview
The club from Khabarovsk struggles to find consistency, but they've been picking up points more frequently of late. In their last seven matches, the team suffered only two regulation losses and managed to hold onto the seventh spot in the East. However, the battle for playoff positions is far from over, and the visitors do not appear to be among the favorites. With only 60 goals scored, they have one of the lowest tallies in the conference. It's hard to believe that with such efficiency, the team can make a significant leap forward and challenge the frontrunners.

🏒 Probable Lineups
Lokomotiv: Isaev - Yelesin, Bereglazov - Surin, Ivanov, Radulov
Amur: Dorozhko - Mishchenko, Dyblenko - Li, Broadhurst, Galchenyuk
🥅 Goalkeepers
Lokomotiv's netminder Daniil Isaev has recently seen a dip in form. The local talent typically posts a save percentage of 92.1%, but this figure has been on the decline. He has failed to reach even 90% in three consecutive games.
Amur's goalie Maksim Dorozhko remains one of the top performers in his position across the league. The former Vityaz player averages a save percentage of 93.3% and has recorded four shutouts. He has managed to avoid major setbacks since the start of the regular season.
Editorial Prediction
The reigning champions' current struggles are merely temporary setbacks, which are almost inevitable over the course of a long regular season. There are no systemic issues within the hosts' camp whatsoever. Meanwhile, the visitors' recent uptick in performance is driven solely by their emotions and solid play in defense, which isn't sustainable in the long run. The head-to-head history clearly indicates that the team from Khabarovsk is likely to face challenges against Bob Hartley's squad. Our bet is on a Lokomotiv victory with a -1.5 handicap.No comments
