The Slovenian national team regularly moves between the world's two strongest leagues. They were relegated from the elite following the 2023 World Cup in Riga, but last year they performed well in the second strongest division, where they picked up nine points in five rounds, finished second in the standings and earned promotion.
In September, the Slovenians qualified for the Olympic Games 2026, but the national team's star player, Ange Kopitar, did not attend the tournament. Without him, they only managed to defeat the Ukrainians 6:2, but the team lost to the Latvians and the French 2:4 and 1:5, respectively, so they won't play at the Olympics in Italy.
Canada: form and statistics
The Canadian team is the favourite in any international tournament. Yes, sometimes the Maple Leafs bring modestly named squads to world championships, but closer to the playoffs they bring high-profile hockey players from the NHL who transform the team and win gold medals. That being said, the Redblacks were an unpleasant surprise at the 2024 World Cup, finishing only fourth at the tournament.
But in February, the Canadians took part in the Tournament of Four with a completely different lineup, where they were triumphant, beating the Americans 3-2 in the final. After their failure at the 2024 World Cup, the Maple Leafs decided to regain their title, and therefore the 2025 World Cup has agreed to bring such world hockey stars as Sidney Crosby, Nathan MacKinnon and Marc-Andre Fleury.

The Maple Leafs are the tournament favourites, having invited very high-profile hockey players under the national team's banner, who are extremely motivated after a disappointing performance in the NHL.

In the three previous head-to-head meetings, the rivals have scored 23 goals (7.67 per game on average), and in all three battles the teams have scored at least twice each.
