SKA Khabarovsk and Sokol Saratov battled to a 0-0 draw in the Russian First League on October 18, 2025. The match at the Stadion im. V.I. Lenina was a cagey affair where both teams prioritized defensive stability over attacking risk. SKA Khabarovsk, with the advantage of playing at home, found it difficult to break down a deep and compact Sokol Saratov block. The visitors were content to absorb pressure and look for opportunities on the counter, but neither side could manufacture a decisive moment. The single point is a modest return for SKA Khabarovsk in front of their own fans, while Sokol Saratov will be pleased with a clean sheet and a hard-earned point on a long eastern road trip.
