Command Analysis
Los Angeles Kings
USACurrent form
Los Angeles is in the sixth position of the Western Conference and scored a total of 79 points. The team can feel completely comfortable, because if it continues to perform in the same spirit, it will surely guarantee itself a place in the playoffs without any problems. It should be noted that at the moment she is almost in her best form for the whole season. Before that, the kings had won four consecutive victories.
On their own ice, they dealt with St. Louis (2:1 OT), and after a difficult away victory over Vegas (6:5) returned to the home arena, where they confidently defeated the Islanders (4:1) and soundly defeated the leader of the East in Washington with a score of 3:0. In most cases, the Kings demonstrated a strong defensive game and managed with a minimum number of goals conceded. In the last match, Darcy Kemper should be given credit for deflecting 21 shots.
It is also worth mentioning that Jim Hiller's team is playing well in the minority and currently has 82.3% neutralization of the majority of the opponent, which makes it in fourth position in the league in this indicator.

Nashville Predators
USACurrent form
Nashville remains one of the outsiders of the Western Conference and occupies the 14th position. The team has a powerful squad by league standards, but it cannot take advantage of its potential. She has probably already mentally said goodbye to her chances of making the playoffs, as she is 14 points away from the top eight. Despite this, the club does not give up and recently managed to give its first series of four wins.
On the road, the predators dealt with Boston (6:3), then beat Seattle (5:3) and Chicago (3:2 OT) at home, and also on the road, not without problems, but still dealt with San Jose (3:2). However, in the final confrontation with Anaheim, Andrew Brunett's team unexpectedly lost with a score of 1:2, although in that match he acted as the first number and was extremely active in someone else's zone, but for 29 shots he failed to score more than one goal.
By the way, Nashville plays rather poorly on foreign grounds, as it has won only eight regular-time games all season and has averaged only two goals scored.
Disqualifications and injuries
Jozy, Bunting, Lauzon, Wilsbu will not help their team in the upcoming meeting.
Interesting betting trends
- Nashville has a 57:77 ratio in goals scored and conceded in the second period.
- According to statistics, Nashville gets 9.28 minutes of penalty time.

In the last two matches against Nashville, the hosts kept the third leg behind them.
2.05Tip and bets
Los Angeles shows very powerful results on the home arena and, as a rule, is extremely confident in dealing with opponents outside the playoff zone. Nashville, in turn, is playing very poorly on the road this season and is often inferior in regular time. Plus, the kings have the discipline that the predators really lack, and due to this, they should be able to bring the matter to a victorious end without any problems.
Prediction - Los Angeles wins in 1.77
Betting on an individual total
Nashville is characterized by mediocre performance on the road and, on average, is unable to score more than two goals. Los Angeles, as you know, is famous for its defensive play and is currently one of the least promising clubs in the Western Conference. In the four previous meetings out of five, the Kings also did not allow their opponents to score three times, so it makes sense to put the guests on total.
We take Nashville's individual total of less than 2.5 goals for 1.60
Bet on the total total
Past meetings between the clubs have been inconclusive and have often ended with fewer than six goals scored. Los Angeles adheres to a closed style of play throughout the season and tries to work perfectly in its own zone. Nashville, as a rule, cannot score much against such teams either, but it also concedes little in response.
We bet on a total of less than 5.5 pucks for 1.85
