Let’s take the cross comparisons as a starting point. Munich won the only league duel so far with Wolfsburg away 5:1. EVZ defeated Rapperswil 3-0 at home.

EVZ was in better shape recently. Four games were won. The last defeat was in October at the current leaders Genève-Servette HC (1:6). At international level, the Zug team faced Ljubljana, TPS Turku and the Grizzlies Wolfsburg in their group. The Swiss champions won all six games and only needed an overtime at home against the DEL representative.

The Red Bulls recently celebrated two 3-2 wins in a row. The last defeat was at the beginning of the month in Mannheim (2:3). At home, the EHC is also in a manageable series of two wins. The last time they were at a disadvantage on home ice was in October against Schwenningen (1:5). That was the only home defeat in the DEL after 60 minutes. In addition, they only lost at home against Nuremberg after a penalty shootout – and so also in the CHL against Tappara Tampere. Previously, Finland was down 4-0. The remaining home and away games in the group stage against Rapperswil and Bratislava were all won.

This encounter brings together the leaders of the German Ice Hockey League and the current fifth in the Swiss National League. The German runner-up has the reigning Swiss champion as a guest. Three German titles face three from Switzerland. At European level, both clubs are still missing great success. In any case, the CHL is firmly in Scandinavian hands. The trophy usually went to Sweden – and once to Finland. After all, the Munich team was the first and only German club to make it into the top four – in 2018/2019 in the final and last season in the semifinals.
