Friday, 7.15 p.m .: Hydro Fehervar AV 19 – Steinbach Black Wings Linz
Referees: HRONSKY, TRILAR, Jedlicka, Zgonc | PPV live stream
Hydro Fehérvár AV19 welcomes the Steinbach Black Wings Linz to kick off the eleventh round. It is the duel of the currently second-placed team against the penultimate. While the Upper Austrians celebrated two successes last weekend and with them the red lantern taxes, Hungarians cleared their place in the sun again after defeat against Bolzano. At Fehérvár, victories and defeats alternate recently. Linz was able to win three of the last five matches after the botched start to the season.
Friday, 7.15 p.m .: Dornbirn Bulldogs – Tesla Orli Znojmo
Referee: NIKOLIC M., VIRTA, Basso, Seewald | PPV live stream
The Dornbirn Bulldogs scored points in their last five games and climbed to fourth place in the table. In three of the last four encounters they were even able to conquer the maximum of points. The Tesla Orli Znojmo has lost something in the table – after two recent defeats – and is now in sixth place in the table. In the last three meetings between these two teams, the host prevails.
Friday, 7.15 p.m .: iClinic Bratislava Capitals – Moser Medical Graz99ers
Referees: SIEGEL, SOOS, Durmis, Racicot | PPV live stream
The Moser Medical Graz99ers want to end their series of defeats as guests of the iClinic Bratislava Capitals. The Styrians could only conquer one point in the last four games and are now the last-placed team in the bet-at-home ICE Hockey League. The iClinic Bratislava Capitals were also not very successful in the past few days and only scored three points in the past three games. The Capitals had already dueled the 99ers in September. At that time, the Slovaks prevailed with a wafer-thin 6: 5 after extra time. Marc-Olivier Roy makes the decision.
Friday, 7.30 p.m .: EC Red Bull Salzburg – spusu Vienna Capitals
Referees: BERNEKER, NIKOLIC, Martin, Sparer >> LIVE on PULS 24 (available worldwide) <
Live on PULS 24, the EC Red Bull Salzburg duels with the spusu Vienna Capitals. Both teams were able to make up ground in the table recently, albeit in different sections of the table. While Die Salzburger are currently in third place – within striking distance of the top two – they are still fighting for the jump into the top ten. The Viennese are currently three points below the red line. The encounter is certainly also interesting because the Viennese will meet some former players, such as Rafael Rotter, Ty Loney, Ali Wukovits and Benjamin Nissner.
Friday, 7.30 p.m .: EC-KAC – HCB Südtirol Alperia
Referees: RENCZ, STERNAT, Bärnthaler, Kis-Kiraly
For the first time this season there will be last year’s final re-edition. After the 4-1 win in a series, the Klagenfurt team lifted the Champions Trophy in Bolzano the previous season. The South Tyrolean nuns are all the more eager to take revenge. Both teams hardly changed their successful team from the previous season. Nevertheless, the key to last year’s success does not seem to have been found – Klagenfurt is currently fifth, Bozen, with its game, is less seventh. A possible explanation could be the double burden with the Champions Hockey League – in which both clubs mastered the group stage brilliantly. At the EC-KAC, the last Rok Tičar returns, but the injured Dennis Sticha will still be missing.
Friday, 7.45 p.m .: HC Pustertal Wölfe – HC TIWAG Innsbruck – Die Haie
Referees: BULOVEC, PIRAGIC, Hribar, Pardatscher | PPV live stream
HC TIWAG Innsbruck won three of the last four games and is now eighth in the table. The last rounds were less successful for the newcomer HC Pustertal. After four defeats in a row, the South Tyroleans fell to twelfth place in the table. The two teams already met in a friendly match – Innsbruck prevailed 2-1 at the time. The HC Pustertal was able to convince this season especially in the power play – with 27.6 percent, the South Tyroleans have the highest power play percent.
Friday, 7.45 p.m .: HK SZ Olimpija – EC GRAND Immo VSV
Referees: OFNER, SMETANA, Gatol, Snoj | PPV live stream
League leaders HK SZ Olimpija Ljubljana want to continue their successful run against EC Grand Immo VSV on Friday. But the Villachers are also strong in the last laps and climbed the table up to ninth place. Both teams have won four of the last five games. The Slovenes have so far shone especially in penalty killing. Ljubljana only had to accept two power play goals in 32 outnumbered situations. On the offensive, Leclerc Guillaume is the be all and end all of the leader – with 19 points (five goals, 14 assists) so far, the bet-at-home ICE Hockey League clearly leads the points.
Saturday, 7 a.m., 5.30 p.m. HC TIWAG Innsbruck – Die Haie – Tesla Orli Znojmo
Referees: OFNER, REZEK, Mantovani, Miklic,
The HC TIWAG Innsbruck and the Tesla Orli Znojmo are challenged twice within 24 hours. On their West Road trip, the Czechs stop in Innsbruck on their way home after the Dornbirn game.
