Tue, 08.02.2022, 19:15: EC-KAC - Steinbach Black Wings Linz
Referees: PIRAGIC, STERNAT, Miklic, Zgonc. | >> PPV-LIVESTREAM <<
It was only on Sunday that the EC-KAC and the Steinbach Black Wings Linz dueled for the last time. The reigning champion from Klagenfurt struggled for a long time, but in the end deservedly prevailed with 5:2. In the third duel of the season, the decision was made in regular playing time for the first time. Paul Postma was the man of the match with a brace. For the defender, it was already his tenth and eleventh goals of the season. In the standings, it was a very important victory for the KAC, who remain in fifth place. The Black Wings are at the bottom of the table. For Klagenfurt, the victory on Sunday was the twelfth away win in the 22nd game. Thus, only Salzburg is more successful away from home. In the Stadthalle Klagenfurt, however, they won only ten from 20 matches.

Tue, 08.02.2022, 19:15: spusu Vienna Capitals - EC Red Bull Salzburg
Referees: SMETANA, SOOS, Durmis, Jedlicka. | >> PPV-LIVESTREAM <<
Also on Sunday it came to the duel of the spusu Vienna Capitals at league leader EC Red Bull Salzburg. The Red Bulls had to go into overtime after an intermediate 2:0 lead, in which ex-Caps forward Ali Wukovits scored the decision. Also in the first duel of the season, the team from Salzburg kept the upper hand by a narrow margin. After goalless 65 minutes, they decided the shootout in their favor. On Tuesday, both teams will face each other for the first time at the Steffl Arena in Vienna. The home team from the Austrian capital, which was so strong at the beginning, recently struggled in front of their home crowd. The 5:3 win against Innsbruck last Friday was their first home win after three losses in a row before. With Salzburg, the Caps have not only the league leader but also the best away team in the league as opponent.

Wed, 09.02.2022, 19:15: HC TIWAG Innsbruck – Die Haie - EC GRAND Immo VSV
Referees: BERNEKER, PIRAGIC, Nothegger, Seewald. | >> PPV-LIVESTREAM <<
With five wins in a row, the EC GRAND Immo VSV is currently the hottest team in the league. On Wednesday and Thursday, the Eagles will play at the HC TIWAG Innsbruck - Die Haie twice. It will be the season duels three and four between both teams. In the previous encounters, it always went into overtime or shootout. Both teams kept the upper hand once. Innsbruck recently suffered two defeats in a row and slipped out of the Top-10 in the standings, but the gap to the pre-playoff places is marginal. Villach is in third place in the standings. With Scott Kosmachuk (VSV) and Tim McGauley (HCI) two current league top scorers face each other. Both players scored 44 points, the same number as Peter Schneider of Salzburg and Brian Lebler of Linz. Kosmachuk is also the ICE's second-best goal scorer with 24 goals.

Wed, 09.02.2022, 19:45: HK SZ Olimpija - HCB Südtirol Alperia
Referees: OFNER, TRILAR, Hribar, Zgonc. | >> PPV-LIVESTREAM <<
Due to three defeats in a row the HK SZ Olimpija slipped out of the Top-6 in the table. Bolzano was victorious in two of the last five games. The last time the South Tyroleans were on the ice was on February 1st. Both games last weekend with HCB participation had to be postponed due to health precautions. The Ljubljana vs. Bolzano encounter has only happened once this season. On September 24th, the league newcomer won clearly with 6:2.

On Thursday and Friday it comes to the double-header between the Moser Medical Graz99ers and Hydro Fehérvár AV19. For the 99ers it are two enormously important games in the fight for the pre-playoffs. Currently they are in tenth place and thus occupy the last pre-playoff spot (as of Monday). Fehérvár, on the other hand, can make the direct jump into the playoffs. Sunday's 5:3 loss in Villach was their first defeat after previously winning five straight. Graz was victorious in two of the past five games. On Sunday, they lost clearly with 0:3 to the HC Pustertal in the direct duel for the ninth place. In the direct duel, both teams prevailed once each this season.
