Winnipeg Jets - Anaheim Ducks: NHL match betting tip
As part of the NHL championship, a match between Winnipeg and Anaheim will take place on April 17. This matchup doesn't matter to the Jets, just like it does to the Ducks. It is likely that the teams will put on a real show on the ice and delight the fans with bright hockey. However, in this case, what is the best bet to place on this event? You will learn the answer from the betting tip
Command Analysis
Winnipeg Jets
CanadaCurrent form
Winnipeg has already consolidated its leadership both in the Western Conference and in the entire championship. The team is three points ahead of its closest pursuer, Washington, so even if it fails in the upcoming match, it will still remain in first position. By the way, the Jets haven't been showing bad results lately either.
They celebrated success in the previous three out of four meetings and gave out a series of three victories. The air army defeated St. Louis (3:1) on its ice, then beat Dallas (4:0) on the road, and after a hard-fought victory over Chicago (5:4 B), it nevertheless returned to its home arena, where it lost to Edmonton with a score of 1:4. In the last match against the Oilers, Paul Maurice's team scored only 18 shots on the opponent's goal and was not as active in the other side's zone as usual, which is why he scored his only goal only in unequal formations.
Do not forget that throughout the season, Winnipeg has been characterized by an ideal defensive game and today remains the only team that has not reached the 200 goal mark.
Disqualifications and injuries
Nikolai Ehlers will not be able to participate in the upcoming match.
Interesting betting trends
- On average, Winnipeg gets 7.17 minutes of penalty time.
- Jets win 49.4% of face-offs
Anaheim Ducks
USACurrent form
Anaheim remained on the 12th line of the Western Conference. The team earned a total of 79 points, so the upcoming match does not matter to them, because in any case they will not be able to worsen or improve their position. It should be noted that the Ducks are far from their optimal form now and have previously suffered three defeats in a row.
After a difficult victory over Calgary (4:3 OT), they lost heavily to Los Angeles (1:6) on the road, and after a home defeat from Colorado (2:4) they went on a visit to Minnesota, which they lost with a score of 2:3 in overtime. At the same time, the Ducks lost two points in the match with the Wild, which was as disappointing as possible, since they had the minimum advantage until the 60th minute and allowed their opponent to equalize the score literally 20 seconds before the siren. Also, once again, Greg Cronin's team failed to score more than two goals.
In general, Anaheim has huge performance problems, especially when it plays on other people's courts. It is no coincidence that the club remains the worst in the majority of the game, as it currently has only 11.9% of sales.
Disqualifications and injuries
Johnston, McGinn, Fabbri and Gibson will not play in the upcoming match.
Interesting betting trends
- According to statistics, Anaheim makes 27 shots on target
- Anaheim wins 44.5% of face-offs
Trends
Bet 1st period: total less than 1.5 pucks
In four out of five matches between the clubs, the first period was inconclusive.
1.87The 3rd periodbet: the guests will score
In three out of five meetings, the guests scored goals in the third period.
1.68Tip and bets
We think that Anaheim can cause some problems for Winnipeg in this confrontation. The last matches this season between the clubs were held in a tense struggle and ended with a minimal difference in the score. In one of the duels, the ducks even achieved success in regular time. The Jets are unlikely to play 100% before the start of the playoffs, especially since the upcoming meeting does not matter to them. We think that even if the visitors concede, they will do it with a difference of one goal.
Prediction - Anaheim wins with an Asian handicap (+1.5) on goals in 1.80
Betting on an individual total
We expect to see no more than three goals from Winnipeg in this matchup. The Jets are still more attuned to playing defense and are building on that. In addition, in face-to-face matches with Anaheim, the hosts, as a rule, do not show the best performance and usually remain with less than three or four goals scored.
We're betting on Winnipeg's individual total of less than 3.5 goals for 1.80
Bet on the total total
We think that in this match we will see no more than five abandoned goals. The previous meetings between the clubs turned out to be quite grassroots. Winnipeg has also finished the last four out of five games with fewer than six goals scored. As we noted above, the hosts are more inclined to a closed style of play, and Anaheim conducts all matches against the air army in this way.
We take a total of less than 5.5 pucks for 2.00
