Dallas Stars - Utah: NHL match betting tip and bets

Current form

Dallas' slump has already dragged on, and the losing streak has reached four games in a row. The series of failures began at the home arena, where they could not contain the pressure of Pittsburgh, having suffered a defeat with a score of 3:5. Next, the team went to visit Minnesota, where they were one step away from victory, but still lost in overtime (2:3). There were problems in defense again, which Wilde took advantage of, creating constant pressure on his competitor. Returning to their home arena, Deboer's team fought Vancouver and were just one step away from success, but conceded three goals just a minute before the final whistle, and then failed in overtime (5:6). Goalkeeper Desmith showed a terrible game, deflecting only 81% of shots.

Continuing to perform at their venue, the team met with the current leader of the Western Conference, Winnipeg. This time, Dallas didn't score a single goal at all, losing dry (0-4). It is worth noting that even despite the large number of points lost, the club remains on the second line in the Western Conference table, although the advantage over its closest competitor has been reduced to one point.

Disqualifications and injuries

Haiskanen, Lundqvist and Seguin remain in the infirmary.

Interesting betting trends

• On average, Dallas scores 3.4 goals per game.

Current form

Utah began to show decent results at the very end of the regular season, steadily earning points. In six matches, the team suffered only two defeats, and only one in regular time from Los Angeles (2:4). The team quickly recovered from this setback, first defeating Winnipeg (4:1), and then defeating Seattle with a score of 7:1. Not only the attacking line, but also the defense showed a great game, and by the end of the second period they managed to score six unanswered goals. The most productive players were Gunter and Sergachev, who scored three points each.

Continuing to perform at home, the former Arizona met with Nashville and, unfortunately for the fans, broke their winning streak, suffering an insulting defeat in a shootout (3:4). The team leveled the score with great difficulty in the third period, but failed to achieve another success. It is worth noting that the club has long lost all chances of reaching the playoffs and is just finishing the regular season.

Disqualifications and injuries

Igraham, O'Brian and Vyalimyaki will not be able to play due to injuries. Marino is also questionable.

Interesting betting trends

• On average, Utah concedes three goals per match.
