Match Prediction: SKA Khabarovsk vs KAMAZ

KAMAZ Offensive Prowess

It’s surprising to see such high odds for a goal from one of the league’s most prolific teams. KAMAZ has already scored 12 goals in the current championship, a tally matched only by Ural. The Naberezhnye Chelny side boasts an impressive 8-match scoring streak in the FNL, and they have found the net in their last 5 away fixtures in the First League. Crucially, Ildar Akhmetzyanov’s team doesn’t just ‘grind out’ goals; they display excellent attacking football, regardless of their opponent’s caliber.

SKA Khabarovsk Defensive Record

While SKA Khabarovsk concedes sparingly, they do so with a degree of regularity. In FNL 2025/26, the team has kept a clean sheet only once, in their match against Torpedo. However, Torpedo Moscow suffers from a dismal 10% goal conversion rate, the worst in the league. In contrast, KAMAZ ranks among the top four teams in this crucial metric.

Final Prediction

Last season, KAMAZ collectively scored four goals against the Far Eastern team. Currently, Ildar Akhmetzyanov’s charges appear even more confident. My prediction is: KAMAZ Individual Total Over 0.5 goals with odds of 1.60.
