Nashville - Anaheim: NHL match betting tip
Nashville and Anaheim will play each other on March 21 in Tennessee. Both teams are at the bottom of the Western Conference table and are gradually losing their chances of making the playoffs. The preseasons have failed the season and intend to seize the last chance to get to the final part of the tournament. The Ducks lost their form and lost a lot of matches in March. Will they be able to win at the Bridgestone Arena? This is stated in the betting tip for the confrontation
Command Analysis
Nashville Predators
USACurrent form
Nashville was one of the contenders for the playoffs before the start of the season, but the hosts did not succeed from the very start of the regular season. Currently, the team from Tennessee occupies only the 14th place in the conference and is gradually losing its chances of a place in the top eight. The Cavs have scored only 58 points in 67 games and are seven points behind Seattle, which is ahead. After a good stretch at the start of spring, the Predators sagged again and lost three meetings in a row. They lost on the road to Anaheim (1:2) and Los Angeles (0:1, OT), and lost at home to St. Louis (1:4).
A weak offensive game constantly lets Roman Yossi's team down. Nashville scores only 2.46 goals per game and plays a little better offensively on its court. The team led by Andrew Brunett scored only two accurate shots in the last three games and are in poor shape. Philip Forsberg is single-handedly doing a lot of work ahead. The Swede scored 60 points (25+35) this season.
Disqualifications and injuries
Jeremy Lauzon, Adam Wilsby and Roman Yossi will not play in the upcoming match due to injuries.
Interesting betting trends
- Nashville throws 29 times per game on average
- Nashville holds an average of 24 power moves.
Anaheim Ducks
USACurrent form
Anaheim is not going to give up and really wants to compete for entry into the second part of the season. The team from California scored 66 points in 68 matches and ranks 12th in the West. The Ducks can still get close to the best teams in the conference, but for this, Ryan Strome's squad needs to start winning steadily now. The Ducks looked good before the Four Nations Tournament break, but they have only managed to win four times since the end of February. At the start of the current guest tour, Greg Cronin's team lost to St. Louis (2:7) and Dallas (3:4, OT).
The Californians are not playing well in their half of the court at this stage of the regular season. Anaheim has conceded 21 goals in the last five games and only once was able to really show a reliable defensive game. Lucas Dostal regularly appears on the ice while John Gibson is in the infirmary. The Czech goalkeeper deflected 90.77% of shots in his possession and made one shutout.
Disqualifications and injuries
Sam Colangelo, Brock McGinn, Ross Johnston, Robbie Fabbri and Tomas Suhanek will not play in Tennessee. John Gibson has not yet confirmed his readiness.
Interesting betting trends
- Anaheim won only 44.4% of face-offs
- The visitors make 27 shots on target per match
Trends
Bet 1st period: total less than 1.5 goals
In four of the five matches involving Nashville, the first period was not productive.
1.93Betting period 1: Nashville will not score
The Preds have not scored in the first period for five consecutive games.
2.40Tip and bets
Most recently, the teams met with each other and then Anaheim was able to beat the opponent in California. Nashville is in terrible shape and has scored only two goals in the last three games. The predators have not solved the problem in defense, so they are unlikely to be able to easily deal with the ducks. Greg Cronin's team can still cling to the top eight in the conference, but for this they definitely need to win on the ice of the Bridgestone Arena. We think that at least the guests will not lose in the main time. We offer a bet on a double second chance.
Our betting tip is that Anaheim will not lose in 1.85
Betting on an individual total
Nashville has a powerful offensive line that is capable of scoring a lot against absolutely any team. Right now, the hosts are not getting anywhere on the other side of the ice, and in the previous three matches, the predators scored only twice. Anaheim can hold off the opponent's attack, and the club from California has already succeeded not so long ago.
Prediction - Nashville's individual total is less than three goals in 1.92
Bet on the total
The last game between the rivals did not turn out to be bright and pleased the stands with only three accurate shots for two. Both teams are not showing a high level of offensive play at this stage of the season and it is unlikely that we will see productive hockey. We believe that neither side will force things and we will bet on a total of fewer goals.
Betting Tip - total less than 5.5 goals in 2.00
