Colorado vs. Winnipeg: NHL Match Prediction
Colorado will face Winnipeg at home on January 23. The Avalanche are currently alternating successful matches with defeats and cannot find stability, but in the confrontation with the Jets they will certainly try to pull themselves together and give their best. Incidentally, the Air Force has not been doing well lately either, and lost the last two matches. However, is it worth betting on the home team success? You will find out from the betting tip
Command Analysis
Colorado Avalanche
USACurrent form
Colorado is trying to take the highest position in the regular season and has already reached the seventh line of the Western Conference and has 55 points. The team needs to give a decent winning streak to end up in the top three. This will be very difficult to do, especially considering the results it has demonstrated recently. Recently, the Avalanche have encountered difficulties and began to alternate successful matches with defeats, but it is likely that in the near future it will be able to find exactly the game that brought it fruits.
Let us recall that the Avalanche had previously literally crushed Minnesota on the road (6:1), after which they unexpectedly lost to Winnipeg (0:3), and after a home victory over the Rangers (3:2 OT) they lost to Edmonton on home ice with a score of 3:4. In the confrontation with Dallas they were also able to please the stands and celebrated success with a score of 6:3. However, being the favorite in the last match with Minnesota, the club did not show itself in the best way and suffered a defeat with a score of 1:3, while opening the opponent defense only once.
Note that, as a rule, Colorado most successful period is the third game segment, which it plays at a high level and has a 66:50 ratio of goals scored and goals conceded. On home ice, Jared Bednar team is generally distinguished by its excellent scoring and usually opens up the opponent defense at least three or four times.

- Colorado currently has a 20.7% majority realization rate
According to this indicator, the team ranks 19th in the league.
Winnipeg Jets
CanadaCurrent form
Winnipeg has been showing great results this season and is the leader of the Western Conference for a reason. The team had a slump in the middle of the season, which it was able to overcome and found the game that brought it fruits over a long period of time. However, recently it has started to play rather mediocre again and replaced a beautiful winning streak of three games with two defeats in a row.
The Air Army dealt with Vancouver (6:1) and Seattle (2:1) on their home court, after which they lost to Calgary (1:3), and also had a completely unsuccessful start to their away series of matches, losing to Utah with a score of 2:5. At the same time, the league most productive club could not score more than two goals in the last two matches, although usually even on away courts the Jets are extremely active in the opponent zone and create many dangerous moments, on average, scoring no less than three goals.
Winnipeg best performance is usually in the second period, where it has a 50:37 ratio of goals scored and goals conceded. It also worth remembering that Scott Arniel team combines well in the majority and is currently the best in the league in this indicator, with a 32.1% conversion rate. However, the team play in the minority is not going so well, which is why it has only a 79.8% neutralization rate of the opponent majority and occupies only 15th place in the championship.
Disqualifications and injuries
Winnipeg has no roster issues at the moment.
Interesting trends for betting
- Winnipeg averages 8.15 penalty minutes per game.
The Jets typically get sent off at least four times per game.
- Winnipeg has a 45-30 lead in first period goals scored and allowed.
Air Force conducts opening twenty minutes at high level
Trends
Bet 1st period: total under 1.5 goals
In the three previous matches between the clubs, the first period was unproductive
1.82Bet 2nd period: home team win
In the two previous matches against the hosts, they achieved success in the second period
2.35Tip and bets
In our opinion, Colorado can claim two points in this matchup. Winnipeg does not look as strong on the road as it does on its home court, and literally the day before it lost to Utah, which is significantly inferior in the Avalanche class. It is also worth remembering that the previous matches in Denver ended exclusively in favor of the Avalanche. Jared Bednar team continues to alternate victories with defeats, so after an unsuccessful match with Minnesota, it will certainly try to pull itself together and please its fans with quality hockey. We think it will succeed.
Prediction - Colorado win at 2.30
Bet on individual total
Colorado is known to have a powerful offensive line and is used to breaking down opponents' defenses at least three times, especially when playing with home fans. The Avalanche also make good use of their numerical advantage on the ice, while the Jets, on the contrary, show a rather weak game when shorthanded. In addition, in four of the previous six meetings with Winnipeg, the hosts regularly scored three or more goals.
We bet on Colorado individual total over 2.5 goals for 1.67
Total Bet
Matches between the clubs often turn out to be productive. The teams are not afraid to play open hockey with each other. In addition, Winnipeg defense has recently left much to be desired, so it is likely that in the upcoming confrontation the Jets will also try to put more emphasis on attacking actions. Considering that most of the meetings with the participation of both teams are over the top, it makes sense to bet on the total over.
We take the total over 5.5 pucks for 1.85
