On 1 May, the Polish and Ukrainian national ice hockey teams will play in Romania at the Sepsi Arena. The game is scheduled to start at 16:00.
Polish national ice hockey team
“The Eagles” got off to a fast start, as they managed to defeat Japan and Romania, which are considered the weakest. But the team had obvious difficulties with the Italians, losing to the favourites.
Ukraine national ice hockey team
‘The Blue and Yellows” lost to Great Britain in a tense confrontation. Later, the Ukrainians showed a decent fight against Italy, winning 3-2, and the match against Romania was the most productive.
The average performance of the Ukrainian national team per game – the ice hockey team – concedes 3.4 goals per game and scores 2.5 goals. The average number of goals conceded/scored is 5.9.
Ukrainians know Robert Calabrese’s team perhaps best, as the team is a regular sparring partner. The Ukrainian national hockey team played the last four friendly games within two training camps – two days in a row. Both times, the Ukrainians won. The most recent matches took place on 13-14 April.

Standings of the 2025 IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship Division 1, Group A
In early 2024, the Ukrainian national team managed to knock Poland out of the Olympic pre-qualifying tournament in a shootout (3: 2 B). The same score, but in favour of the White and Reds, was recorded during our last meeting at the World Championships – in 2022 in Division 1B. Then the Poles won the tournament, and the Ukrainian national hockey team finished third.
In addition to regular meetings at the national team level, Ukrainian hockey players know Polish hockey well from the inside – many of them have played or are playing in the local championship.
