Kometa Brno met Dynamo Pardubice on Sunday evening in the Extraliga, and the visitors took all three points with a 5-3 victory. The match ended 27 September 2026, with the away side proving sharp when it mattered. By then the home side had already shown they could fight back, but the visitors held their nerve.
Brno sit sixth after four games, two wins and two losses, while Pardubice occupy second place following five matches. Both teams trail on points — a sign the league is still finding its shape early on. The gap between them is not wide, but the confidence is clearly elsewhere.
Brno came into this one on a run of two straight wins over Olomouc and Montfield HC, after a narrow defeat to Litvinov. Pardubice had won four of their last five, including a comfortable 4-1 over Mlada-Boleslav on Friday. To be fair, the visitors looked the more settled side, and that showed in the scoreline.
We called for an away win before kick-off, with 42 per cent confidence. And here's the thing — the prediction held. Pardubice turned up ready to go for the jugular, and Brno never quite got going after falling behind. The visitors were out of sight by the final period, even if the home side managed to rattle the net three times.
The result leaves Pardubice two points clear of fourth place, while Brno remain mid-table with room to improve. It was a straight knockout for the visitors, and one that keeps them in the hunt for top spot. The home side will need to find consistency if they want to climb.
