What’s ahead in EIHL week 12?

 

Week 12 in the 2025/26 Elite Ice Hockey League season gets going on a bumper Friday night of games.

Eight teams are in action across four fixtures. League leaders Nottingham Panthers welcome Glasgow Clan to the Motorpoint Arena, while Manchester host Fife Flyers at the Storm Shelter. Cardiff and Guildford meet for the first time in league play this season, and Dundee are on home ice against Belfast to round off the night.

Saturday brings three games. It is a huge one at the Utilita Arena where the league-leading Panthers face second-placed Sheffield Steelers, just a week after the teams needed a shootout to separate them in Nottingham. Belfast continue their Scottish road trip in Glasgow, while Manchester are back at home with Coventry Blaze the visitors.

Sunday closes the week with another trio of fixtures. Fife hosting Cardiff gets the day started, with Sheffield travelling to Coventry. Guildford then round out the weekend as they welcome Dundee to the Spectrum.
