Anaheim vs Edmonton Prediction: the Opponents Love Scoring Goals

Prediction for the NHL Anaheim Ducks vs Edmonton Oilers match, which will take place on January 12th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Anaheim, as it stands, is a modestly ambitious team in a rebuild. Many of the players spark high hopes, but they still need to gain experience. So far, they have shown mediocre results. That said, you can't blame the Ducks for their lack of attitude and commitment, as they still fight for points in nearly every meeting. In their last six games, the Black and Oranges had three wins and three losses, but the day before, they lost to Boston 1-7. This setback has secured Anaheim's 15th spot in the Western Conference.

Edmonton is a more ambitious and skilled team who made some noise in the playoffs last season. Now they want to go even further in the Cup battles. However, this season hasn't been especially easy for the Oilers, and now they've entirely stalled. In the last five games, the Blue and Oranges won only once over the Islanders, 4-2. Once, they could earn the points in the game with Colorado and lost in overtime, 2-3, and three times they failed in regulation time. With such a weak run, Edmonton has already fallen to eighth place in the Western Conference standings, so it's time for them to step up.

Edmonton could be in a better mood now, having failed four of their five games. Now the Canadiens will have a great chance to improve their stats, as they will play against the second-last team in the Western Conference. In three of the last four meetings, the visitors beat the Ducks, so now they are the favorites. After all, their skill level is much higher than that of Californians. Anaheim and Edmonton are different teams in their ambitions, but they want to play brightly and openly. They often have eventful matches. In the four previous meetings, the opponents have scored 35 goals (8.75 on average per game). Every match ended with the total over. In the upcoming battle, we expect something similar.
