Questions and answers

Who is favoured to win the 2026–27 Le Mat Trophy?

Skellefteå AIK, at 31%, ahead of Färjestad BK (31%), Frölunda HC (16%) and Rögle BK (7%). That's from 10,000 simulations of the rest of the season with PodiumOracle's current ratings, updated 12 November 2026.

What are the odds for the next SHL games?

According to PodiumOracle's model: Djurgårdens IF at Färjestad BK (12 November 2026): Färjestad BK 73%; Örebro Hockey at Björklöven (12 November 2026): Björklöven 57%; Malmö Redhawks at Frölunda HC (12 November 2026): Frölunda HC 64%. Every upcoming one's chances are on this page and update until the start.

How accurate are PodiumOracle's SHL predictions?

On 917 games from held-back seasons (2024–25 to 2026–27), which the model never saw while it was tuned, the side it favoured won 61% of the time. Its log loss was 0.669, against 0.681 for the base rate and 0.677 for recent form. Against the betting markets on the same finished games, its log loss was 0.665 against the bookmakers' 0.668 over 250 games, 0.613 against Polymarket's 0.616 over 132 games and 0.659 against Kalshi's 0.660 over 243 games (lower is better).

How are the SHL predictions made?

Every team has a rating that moves after each result, by more when the result was a surprise. The gap between two ratings, plus home advantage, gives each game's chance, and the rest of the season is simulated 10,000 times, with the league's own format, for the Le Mat Trophy odds. The settings are chosen on older seasons and tested on the most recent ones.
