Kazakhstan vs USA: prediction & betting odds May 18, 2025

The Matchday 10 encounter in Group B of the 2025 World Championship between Kazakhstan and the USA will take place on May 18 at the Jyske Bank Boxen in Herning. Kazakhstan vs. USA: prediction and betting odds, statistics.

Kazakhstan National Team

Kazakhstan suffered a heavy 1-8 defeat against the Czech Republic in their last World Championship match, marking their fourth consecutive loss in the tournament. Forward Vyacheslav Kolesnikov scored the team's only goal. After five games, Kazakhstan has accumulated three points and is currently seventh in Group B.

  • Kazakhstan has lost in regulation time in 8 of their last 10 World Championship matches.
  • The team has not scored more than two goals in regulation time in 9 of their last 10 World Championship games.
  • No more than six goals have been scored in regulation time in 7 of Kazakhstan's last 10 World Championship matches.

USA National Team

The USA secured a 6-3 victory over Germany in their last match. Forward Conor Garland stood out with three assists and a goal in the third period. The team currently has eleven points and occupies third place in the Group B standings.

  • The USA has won in regulation time in 7 of their last 10 World Championship matches.
  • The team has scored at least five goals in regulation time in 6 of their last 8 World Championship games.
  • At least six goals have been scored in regulation time in 6 of the USA's last 8 World Championship encounters.

Kazakhstan vs. USA: Match Prediction

Kazakhstan has managed to win only one match in this year's World Championship. Despite this, the team continues to fight actively against opponents of any level, scoring at least one goal in each of their last nine World Championship games within 60 minutes. Facing the Americans will be challenging, but I believe Kazakhstan will try to minimize the number of goals conceded: they have not lost by more than five goals in 6 of their last 7 World Championship matches after three periods.

The USA is the favorite for the upcoming match. However, their impressive play is often marred by recurring defensive issues: the USA has conceded at least three goals in each of their last three World Championship games within 60 minutes. Additionally, the team has not won by more than three goals in 5 of their last 7 World Championship matches in regulation time. Therefore, my prediction: Kazakhstan with a handicap (+5.5)
