Swiss side HC Davos have taken three wins in their start to the 2022/23 Champions Hockey League season. Their last two games against the Belfast Giants showcased their scoring aptitude with 11 goals for and four against. Enzo Corvi (1G, 5A), Czech teammate Matěj Stránský (4G, 1A), and Andres Ambühl (5A) have inflicted most of the damage, with 21 points shared between the trio over three games.

Netminder Sandro Aeschlimann has played the bulk of the minutes so far, posting a save percentage of 92.31, while teammate Gilles Senn is on 94.12 after 60 minutes of play.

Skellefteå AIK have been equally successful, tallying two hard-earned wins against Czech contenders Oceláři Třinec, but the margin was much closer. The Swedes just won, once in overtime, and once in regular time during their most recent meeting.

Top scorer Rickard Hugg has been the go-to man for the Swedish side, lighting up the lamp with five points (4G, 1A) over three games. He's supported by teammate Tom Kühnhackl who has three points (1G, 2A). Skellefteå Netminder Gustav Lindvall has played all 182 minutes so far, and posts a save percentage of 90.72.

With the opening game between these two sides falling in favour of Davos, Skellefteå will be looking for retribution. Davos currently top Group H with nine points, so if Skellefteå can secure a win in regular time, it would push the Swedes up to eight points, making it a one point gap to the top spot. Expect a tight, clean game between two highly skilled teams.
