Seattle Kraken vs Washington Capitals Prediction and Betting Tips (24.01.2025)

Match announcement

Seattle Kraken

USA

Current form

Seattle road series ended with mixed results. The first match against Columbus ended in a 2-6 defeat, with the second period being particularly unsuccessful, as the Kraken conceded four goals and were unable to recover. Goaltender Grubauer had a weak performance and was replaced at the end of the second period. In the match against Buffalo, the team rehabilitated itself, demonstrating its attacking potential and winning a confident victory (6-2). Many players showed a good game, but they were unable to consolidate their success. In the match against Detroit, the team again faced problems in defense, which led to another major defeat with a score of 2-6. The same problem arose in the match against Pittsburgh, but thanks to excellent attacking performance and the efforts of the goaltender, they managed to win (4-2). The best player was defenseman Larsson, who made two assists.

In the match with the clear favorite Winnipeg, Seattle suffered another defeat (1:2). Returning to the home arena, the team hoped to improve the results by playing with another clear favorite in the person of Los Angeles. To the great joy of the fans, the club showed an excellent game in attack and due to this achieved an unexpected success, with a score of 4:2. Forward Schwartz made a huge contribution, scoring a hat trick. Continuing to play at home, the team met with Buffalo and took full advantage of the weak defense of the opponent, realizing all their attacking potential and winning a confident victory (6:4). This time, the most productive was forward McCann, who scored a goal and gave two assists. However, so far the points scored have not helped the club get closer to the playoff zone, and it remains only in 12th place in the Western Conference table.

Disqualifications and injuries

Only Eberle and Gourde remain in the Seattle infirmary. The rest of the players have returned to action.

Interesting trends for betting

  • On average, the Krakens let in 3.2 goals per game.

The team main problem remains its weak defensive play.

  • Seattle converted just 17% of its power play attempts.

Krakens also rarely take advantage of opponents' removals.

Washington Capitals

USA

Current form

Washington continues to be in excellent shape, consistently beating all competitors on its way. The team winning streak has already reached five games in a row, and almost all of them ended in regulation time. The team initially played away, where they met Nashville and left them no chance, defeating them with a score of 4:1. Goalkeeper Thompson made a huge contribution to the success, reflecting 32 shots out of 33. Returning to the home arena, the team played even more reliably and did not allow Anaheim to even score, winning dry (3:0). Thompson also defended the goal this time, making a shutout. It is also impossible not to mention forward Dwyer, who scored a goal and gave an assist. They managed to consolidate their success in an away match with Ottawa, where the capital also won dry, but in overtime (1:0). There were some minor difficulties with creating and converting attacking chances, but we managed to avoid losing points thanks to the proven performance of goalkeeper Thompson.

Then the Capitals returned to their home arena, where they fought with a problematic Pittsburgh and took advantage of its weak defense, fully demonstrating its attacking potential and winning with a score of 4:1. This time it is difficult to even single out any of the players, as many distinguished themselves with effective actions. Washington got their fifth victory with great difficulty. They had to go to visit a very serious opponent in the person of Edmonton, who showed a very reliable game throughout the match, but thanks to accurate throws they managed to snatch a victory in regular time (3:2). Thanks to such successful performances, the club not only retained its leadership in the Eastern Conference table, but also seriously strengthened its position. Now the advantage over the closest competitor is seven points.

Disqualifications and injuries

Washington infirmary remains unchanged, with the team without Backstrom, Oshie, T.J. and Malano.

Interesting trends for betting

  • On average, Washington allows 2.47 goals per game.

The team continues to show excellent defensive play and rarely allows opponents to show their attacking potential.

  • The capital team realized 23% of its power play attempts

It is also worth noting the excellent play of the team with an advantage of one player, which allows them to consistently punish opponents for breaking the rules.

Tip and bets

2.16Washington victory

It will be difficult for Seattle to cling to points again in the upcoming match. The team will have to fight one of the strongest clubs in the league at the moment, which is also in excellent shape. Yes, the Krakens have also come to their senses and have begun to achieve success consistently, but it is worth noting that they are inferior to Washington in many respects. Also, we must not forget that home walls do not always help Biles' charges earn points. We believe that due to their excellent condition, the capital will be able to continue their winning streak without any particular problems.

Our prediction is Washington win at 2.16

Washington, due to its significant superiority over its opponent, will begin to create serious pressure on Seattle from the first minutes of the match, for which the Krakens may not be ready.
