Command Analysis

New Jersey Devils

Current form
New Jersey is currently in sixth position in the Eastern Conference and has 85 points to its credit. The team has been unable to find its game for a long period of time and usually makes do with single wins. Lately, she has only alternated successful fights with defeats and could not get on a winning streak in any way.
The Devils lost to Vancouver on their ice (3:4B), then they proved their superiority over Chicago (5:3), and after a disastrous match against Winnipeg (0:4) they regained their composure and dealt with the same Minnesota with a score of 5:2. In the match with the savages, Sheldon Keogh's team was able to seize a comfortable advantage from the first minutes and subsequently confidently brought the matter to a victorious end, while playing reliably defensively.
That match turned out to be enchanting for Niko Hishir, who scored a hat-trick and thus beautifully interrupted his three-match goalless streak. If we talk about the Devils' game on their ice, they often perform well and usually differ in no less than three goals scored.
Disqualifications and injuries
Hamilton, Hughes, Siegenthaler, Lazar will not be able to participate in the match due to injuries.
Interesting betting trends
- New Jersey has an 84:58 ratio of goals scored and conceded in the second period.
- The Devils average 23 power plays per match.

Minnesota Wild

Current form
Minnesota will definitely not be outside the playoff zone in the near future, but today it occupies the seventh position of the Western Conference and continues to show very unstable results. The team can't get to a successful series of matches in any way and has recently been unable to win more than one victory in a row.
Before the first meeting with New Jersey, the Wild lost to Dallas (0:3), Vegas (1:5), and also beat the leader of the East in Washington with a score of 4.:2. But in most cases, the savages still have serious problems with the realization of moments and cannot form more than one or two goals per match. Strangely enough, John Hines' players perform better on foreign grounds than on the home arena, and in half of the away matches they achieved victory within the regular time.
It is worth saying that Minnesota needs to improve its game in the majority, as it currently has 20.4% of excess sales and ranks 21st in the league by this indicator.
Disqualifications and injuries
Irzicek, Chisholm, Kaprizov and Eriksson Ek will not be able to participate in the upcoming meeting.
Interesting betting trends
- According to statistics, Minnesota makes 27 shots on target.
- Minnesota wins 46.9% of face-offs

1.45Tip and bets
In our opinion, New Jersey should be successful in the upcoming match as well. The Devils had a very confident match the day before against Minnesota and celebrated their success with a score of 5:2. Then they looked better than their counterpart and acted more powerfully both offensively and defensively. Moreover, the Wild are now in mediocre form and previously often lost within 60 minutes, so it makes sense to bet on a clean victory for the hosts.
Betting Tip - New Jersey wins in 2.15
Betting on an individual total
New Jersey had scored no less than three goals in the previous three meetings against the Savages. The devils skillfully open up the opponent's defense and in most cases score at least three goals. Wilde, in turn, has shown a rather weak defensive game in previous meetings and has made many mistakes.
We take the New Jersey individual total of more than 2.5 goals for 1.65
Bet on the total total
The last matches between the clubs were spectacular and took place with more than five goals scored. New Jersey is also used to taking risks and allows the opponent a lot in his own zone. The savages on the road operate on opposite courses and try to pay more attention to attack than defense. Based on this, we expect to see at least six goals in this match.
We bet on a total of more than 5.5 pucks for 2.10
