Riga Prizma — Kyiv Capitals: 2:8, Optibet hokeja līga

Kyiv Stolichny beat Riga Prizma 8-2 in the Optibet Hockey League on 3 October 2026. The visitors made no mistake in extending their winning run at the expense of the home side, who had already lost five of their seven games this season.

And here's the thing — we were calling this one in our predictions. Sixty-three percent confidence on an away win, and the visitors delivered precisely what we expected. To be fair, the form suggested it would happen long before the final whistle.

By then Riga Prizma had already picked up a habit of conceding heavily. Their last six outings showed five defeats, including a 3-6 loss to Kyiv Stolichny just three days earlier. This result pushed their total to six losses and kept them rooted in sixth place with zero points.

Kyiv Stolichny, meanwhile, kept their grip on second place. Five wins from six matches means they are the only side in the table without a draw. The 2-1 margin from their previous meeting was replaced by something far more decisive, and the visitors saw it out without looking back.

The score difference now sits at 10 for Kyiv Stolichny and 4 against Riga Prizma. That kind of gap does not close quickly, and the home side will need to find a way back into their form before the next round.
