Ska Neva vs HC AKM Tula Prediction 26 October 2026
🔊 AKM remain among the VHL frontrunners, but back-to-back defeats have raised questions about their current form. Up next is a clash with SKA-VMF-a side the Tula outfit have lost to in each of their last four head-to-head meetings. The St. Petersburg club are also riding high in the standings and look well-placed to extend their impressive run. That said, AKM rarely lose by more than a single goal, so the hosts shouldn’t expect an easy night.

Prediction for the 1st period
Encounters between these sides in St. Petersburg rarely kick off with a flurry of goals. In each of the last five head-to-head meetings at home, SKA-VMF have seen no more than one goal scored in the opening period. That trend extends to their previous six league fixtures as well, where the same total has held up. The bet: under 1.5 goals in the first period at odds of 1.56.
Match Result Prediction
Despite suffering back-to-back defeats, AKM rarely allow their opponents to pull away with a comfortable margin. In 17 of their last 18 outings, the Tula side have managed to cover the +1.5 handicap, and on the road, they’ve achieved this in nine out of ten games. That’s why another win for SKA-VMF is unlikely to come easy. The pick here is AKM +1.5 handicap at odds of 1.32.

⭐️ Editor’s Prediction
The head-to-head history doesn’t favor AKM, and it’s not just about the results. In their last five meetings, the team from Tula have never managed to score more than two goals. The visitors are coming into this match on the back of two straight defeats, while SKA-VMF have already beaten this opponent four times in a row. Given these trends, it’s risky to expect a sudden surge in AKM’s offensive output. My pick: AKM under 2.5 goals (individual total).
