LiontipsDallas vs Arizona. Prediction and Betting Tips for NHL (March 2, 2023).
Command Analysis
Dallas ended their losing streak of five games by winning in a shootout against Vegas (3:2 SO). The team was very close to losing yet another game in regulation, but a goal by Hintz 40 seconds before the final siren saved the Stars from that fate. It seemed that the victory over the leader of the Western Conference would help the Stars regain their form and confidence, but in the last match, they lost to Vancouver (4:5 OT) at home.
Arizonacompleted a four-game homestand, in which they showed poor results. The team won only one game in regulation against the clear outsider Chicago (4:1). The Coyotes also barely snatched a victory from Columbus in overtime (3:2 OT) - the team was saved by goalie Ingram, who saved 34 of 36 shots. In the other games, Arizona played horribly and suffered crushing defeats to Calgary (3:6) and Nashville (2:6).

Tip and bets
At home, Arizona are still capable of winning, but the team shows poor results on road trips. In 20 away games, they have managed to win only once, and most of those games ended in regulation. Dallas have another chance to get back on track. We believe that the Stars will not miss this opportunity and come out on top.
Our prediction - handicap (-1.5) to Dallas
One of the main problems for Arizona is their weak defense. The team constantly allows a large number of goals and cannot compensate with active offensive play. Dallas have also experienced a decline and have had issues in their defense, so a high-scoring game can be expected here.
Second prediction - total over 5.5 goals
