Astrahanochka Women secured a 36:30 victory over Alisa Ufa Women in the Superliga on Tuesday, 9 September 2026. The match took place at 13:30 local time and marked the opening fixture for both sides in the new campaign. The away outfit worked the channels to build a comfortable lead before seeing it out in the closing stages.
Alisa Ufa have been finding it difficult to string wins together of late, losing four of their last five encounters. Their record against teams like Best Women and Adiyif shows they rarely get going against opposition of this calibre. Astrahanochka, meanwhile, had been putting together reasonable results against Tol'yatti in May, though they were reduced to grinding out narrow margins on occasion.
Our prediction called for the visitors to prevail, and with 73 per cent confidence at the time. That assessment held up as Astrahanochka's experience showed through when it mattered. The away side never looked back once they established control in the middle period of play.
Both teams now sit on zero points in the standings after zero games recorded, which tells us very little about where they might finish. The table is essentially empty at this stage, so today's result is more about momentum than position. A six-goal margin gives Astrahanochka something to build on.
The victory extends Astrahanochka's unbeaten run to eight matches across all competitions, while Alisa Ufa's struggles continue. There is unrest in the dressing room at the home side if recent form is any indication. The price has drifted slightly away from them as a result.
