Anaheim vs. Vegas: NHL Match Prediction

Current form

Anaheim, having returned to their home arena, continued to lose points from match to match. In the first match, the team met with an opponent of their level, in the person of Chicago, and it seemed that they would be able to cope with a not very serious competitor without any problems, due to the advantage of home walls, but this did not happen. Goalkeeper Dostal did not play his best, reflecting 86% of the shots, which led to a failure (2:4). Then they had to fight with more powerful clubs of the league and, accordingly, suffer crushing defeats from Vancouver and Minnesota with a score of 1:5 and 2:5, respectively. Once again, Dostal showed himself from the worst side and did not cope with a large number of shots.

Despite the losing streak, the Ducks managed to break the losing streak with an important 4-2 win over Columbus. In this match, the team attack line finally showed its worth, converting many dangerous moments in the opponent zone. This time, goalie Gibson played much more reliably than his teammate, which allowed Anaheim to earn two points. However, even this victory did not help the team rise in the Western Conference standings, leaving it in the penultimate place.

Disqualifications and injuries

Forward Fabbri and goalie Susanek are still in the Anaheim infirmary. Fowler and MacTavish are also questionable for the upcoming match.

Interesting trends for betting

• On average, Anaheim scores 2.2 goals per game.

The team main problem remains its very low attacking performance.

• The Ducks converted just 12.5 percent of their power play attempts.

Due to their low attacking performance, the Ducks cannot even capitalize on their numerical advantage and rarely take advantage of their opponents' penalties.
