LiontipsAnaheim vs New Jersey. Prediction and Betting Tips for NHL (January 14, 2023).
Command Analysis
Anaheim continue to show terrible results at their home arena. The team suffered a crushing defeat to Boston (1:7). The Ducks defense completely failed in the confrontation with the Bruins attack, and goalkeeper Gibson stopped only 83% of the shots he faced. After that, the Ducks lost to Edmonoton with a score of 2:6. Gibson disappointed again and was substituted for Stolars, who was more reliable.
New Jersey are on top form and remain in 4th place in the Eastern Conference standings. They are four points behind the second line, but with a game in hand. The Devils are successful both at home and on road trips, where they haven't lost in four straight games. In 17 away games of the season, the Devils suffered only two defeats.

Tip and bets
The Devils are on fire - they are one of the leaders in the East and consistently chalk up points at home and on their travels. Anaheim, on the other hand, struggle to get results even at home, and we don't expect them to overcome New Jersey. The favorites should win confidently.
Our prediction - handicap (-1.5) to New Jersey
Anaheim can't boast of a reliable defensive line. They concede a lot in pretty much every game, and their current opponents are one of the highest-scoring teams in the league this season. Take the over.
Second bet - total over 6 goals
