Ducks vs Predators: The Ducks looking to stop the bleeding
The Anaheim Ducks are on a five-game losing streak, and things will not get any easier as they are starting a six-game road trip with a stop at Bridgestone Arena, where they will face the Nashville Predators tonight.
Anaheim has the second-longest active losing streak
The Anaheim Ducks are 14th in the Western Conference with a 13-25-1 record. They have the worst home record in the league, with 6 wins in 23 games. The Ducks have lost the last five games and are going to Nashville after a 3-2 loss to the Detroit Red Wings. The Ducks are ranked 29th in the league, scoring 2.46 goals per game and are not much better defensively as they are 24th with 3.33 allowed goals per game. Frank Vatrano is the best player on the team with 28 points, 18 of which are goals.
The Predators have a decent season
The Nashville Predators are 7th in the Western Conference with a 22-17-1 record, including 12-10-0 at home. After losing three consecutive games, the Predators are the winners of three of the last five. They are hosting the Ducks after beating the Dallas Stars 4-3. The Predators are 17th in the league, scoring 3.1 goals per game, and 15th, allowing 3.13 goals per game. Filip Forsberg is the best player on the team, with 21 goals and 24 assists for a total of 45 points.
Betting Trends
The Predators are 6-1 SU in the last 7 games against the Ducks. Anaheim is 0-5 SU in the last five games, 2-7 SU in the last 9 games on the road, and 1-8 SU in the last 9 games against Western Conference opponents.
Player to watch
The Predator center, Ryan O’Reilly, is second on the team with a total of 35 points. He has played quite well lately, having at least one assist in the last four games. In the 4-3 win over the Dallas Stars, O’Reilly had two assists in just over 19 minutes spent on the ice.
Injury Reports
Leo Carlsson and Troy Terry are out for the Ducks, while the Predators have their full roster available.
Prediction and Conclusion
The Anaheim Ducks are having a difficult season and currently have the second-longest losing streak in the league. They have dropped the last five games, and there are not many reasons to believe in them as they are starting a six-game road trip. The Predators had a difficult week as well, but they bounced back with three confident wins in the last four games. The Predators have a chance to make another step forward in the Western Conference standings, and they will not miss the opportunity to add another win against one of the worst teams in the league.
