Command Analysis
New Jersey Devils
USACurrent form
New Jersey is currently in seventh position in the Eastern Conference and has earned a total of 91 points. The team can no longer improve its position in the standings, so the upcoming match plays almost no role for it. In recent matches, by the way, she also did not look her best and faced a series of three defeats.
So, on their ice, the Devils defeated Boston (2:7), then lost to Pittsburgh (2:4) and the Islanders (0:1). Fortunately, in the final away game against the Bruins, they nevertheless pulled themselves together and celebrated success in overtime with a score of 5:4. Then Sheldon Keogh's team had a great second twenty-minute game, during which he scored three goals, two of which he scored in the majority.
However, for a long period of time, the Devils have difficulty playing defense and miss quite a lot, especially in matches with leaders. The third segment remains the most unsuccessful in their performance, which accounts for most of the goals conceded.
Disqualifications and injuries
Hughes, Siegenthaler and Hamilton will miss the meeting due to injuries, while Cotter will not play due to suspension.
Interesting betting trends
- According to statistics, New Jersey holds 23 power moves.
- Devils get 7.94 minutes of penalty time
Detroit Red Wings
USACurrent form
Detroit is in tenth place in the Eastern Conference and this year, unfortunately, once again remained outside the playoff zone. However, the team has already looked much more dynamic than in previous seasons, and the progress in its game is noticeable to the naked eye. That is why, if she continues to perform in the same spirit, she will certainly be able to participate in the Stanley Cup next season.
It should be noted that the Red Wings lacked stability throughout the year, and recently they have not been able to win more than two in a row. Earlier on the road, they lost to Montreal and Florida with a score of 1:4, and after a difficult victory over Tampa (4:3 OT), they returned to their ice, where they beat a powerful opponent in Dallas with a score of 6.:4. In the confrontation with the sheriffs, Todd McLellan's wards played the final twenty minutes at a high level, during which they scored four goals and, due to their character, snatched victory in regular time.
However, Detroit does not perform so well on the road, because up to this point it had managed to win only ten victories within 60 minutes.
Disqualification and injury
Kopp and Mazur will not play in the upcoming meeting.
Interesting betting trends
- Detroit gets 6.69 minutes of penalty time
- Krylia wins 49.1% of face-offs
Trends
Bet 1st period: total more than 1.5 pucks
In the last four matches between the clubs, the first period was productive.
1.88The 3rd periodrate: The hosts will score
In three out of five meetings against Detroit, the hosts scored goals in the third period.
1.47Tip and bets
In our opinion, Detroit is greatly overestimated in this confrontation. New Jersey is definitely playing better at home than Krylia on the road, and they definitely don't plan to end the regular season with a defeat in order to go into the playoffs in a good mood. By the way, Keefe's team finished the previous match against the Red Wings in their favor with a score of 5:4. Considering that the Red Wings have not won more than two in a row for a long time, we suggest betting that the hosts will not concede in regular time.
Betting Tip - New Jersey won't lose in 1.60
Betting on an individual total
In previous matches against Detroit, the hosts usually scored three or more goals. The Devils often show good performance on their ice and score at least three goals per match on average. Krylia, in turn, missed at least three times in the last four meetings.
We're betting on New Jersey's individual total of more than 2.5 goals in 1.75
Bet on the total total
The previous matches between the teams turned out to be spectacular and, as a rule, took place with at least six goals scored. Detroit plays only open hockey on the road, so the upcoming match will be held in this style. New Jersey has also missed a lot lately, so it makes sense to bet more on the total.
We take a total of more than 5.5 goals for 1.87
