FTC’s Saturday preview reports a power-play conversion rate of 32.26%; Klagenfurt’s own analysis gives 32.5%. Our subtraction produces a gap of just 0.24 percentage points, but the published percentages do not state how many opportunities underlie them.

The question starts before the penalty

BSR’s reading: watch more than the power-play units. Which side earns how many opportunities, and how do they perform at five-on-five? The two percentages alone are not win probabilities.

Sunday’s game starts at 15:30 on 18 October at Budapest’s Tüskecsarnok; doors and on-site ticket sales open at 14:30. It follows Friday’s 4–3 win. KAC’s official notice confirms a paid Sporteurope.TV broadcast.
