Minnesota Wild vs Colorado Avalanche Prediction and Betting Tips (18.10.2022)

Command Analysis

Minnesota Wild

USA

Minnesota were impressive in the preseason. They won most of the games and approached the new regular season in great form, but suffered an unexpected defeat to the Rangers (3:7) in the opening game. After that, the Wild yielded to Los Angeles (6:7). Dean Evason's men conceded a total of 14 goals in two games, which is unacceptable for the team of such ambition. Minnesota will need to step up their game if they want to secure leadership in their conference.

Colorado Avalanche

USA

Colorado won the Stanley Cup last year. Throughout the season, they were one of the strongest teams in the NHL. However, the salary cap forced them to part ways with several stars. This may have an adverse effect on Colorado's results. The Avalanche have played two games in the new season. After a confident victory over Chicago (5:2), they lost to Calgary (3:5). Colorado, just like the Wild, play an open brand of hockey, and most of their games are very exciting to watch.

Both sides have a lot to live up to, but the teams weren't convincing in the first games of the new season. Minnesota usually do well against Colorado at home and haven't lost to the Avalanche in regulation in quite a long time. We give a slight edge to the home team.

1.55Minnesota IT over 2.5 goals

We expect the hosts to score at least three goals in this game. They look great on the offensive and regularly score large numbers of goals. Colorado have never been very disciplined on defense, so we recommend playing the individual total of the Wild.
