After Hydro Fehérvár AV19 had to concede defeat in Villach on Sunday after leading 3:1, the Hungarians got off to the worst possible start just 24 hours later in Znojmo. Radim Matus scored on the first power play in the fourth minute to give the home side the lead, and they continued to show why they are currently the best home team in the bet-at-home ICE Hockey League. Anthony Luciani increased the lead after an ideal Prokes assist and just 22 seconds later Tor Immo made it 3:0. With his 20th goal of the season, Radek Prokes even added the fourth goal after 7:26 minutes. The Czechs continued rolling attacks on Rasmus Tirronen's goal, but missed a few opportunities. And so the guests scored their first goal out of nowhere, Tim Campbell (16th) hit the short corner. The Hungarians regained their courage and reduced the score to 4:2 after the first period break through Csanad Erdely. Head coach Kevin Constantin's team now had their best phase of the game, but only another power play brought the momentum back on the side of the home side: Immo made it 5:2 in the 35th minute. That was the final decision. Fehervar tried a few more things in the third, but no more goals were scored. So in the fourth duel of the season between Znojmo - who celebrated their sixth home win in a row - and Fehervar, the hosts kept always the upper hand. While the Eagles made it into the top six, the Hungarians slipped to third place in the standings with their second defeat in two days.
