Arizona Coyotes vs Dallas Stars Prediction: Arizona will extend their losing streak

Prediction for the NHL Arizona Coyotes vs Dallas Stars match, which will take place on April 1. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

Arizona has had another unremarkable season, but there has been no improvement. The team develops young talent every year, but their opponents have just as much, making it hard to beat them over the distance. Nevertheless, the Coyotes had an excellent run recently, posting six wins and two overtime losses. That was the end of their exploits as Andre Torino's team failed to win a single game in the next five contests, collecting only two points in the loss outside of regular time. Arizona now sits in 13th place in the Western Conference standings.

Dallas is a team with a much bigger ambition and has already secured its place in the top 8. Another thing is that throughout the regular season, the Stars were among the league leaders but suffered a few setbacks in the second half of March. In the last seven games, they had only three wins and four losses, which is a modest result for such a powerful team. There is a lot of density at the top of the Western Conference standings, so the Texans are in sixth place now but still have a chance to advance.

Not so long ago, Arizona had a productive 8-match series with points scored, but in that stretch, the Coyotes left the last forces, after which they lost in five consecutive games. Now the losing streak has every chance to continue, as their next opponent will be Dallas, who needs more points. The Texans continue to fight for the highest seed in the playoffs, and the Stars don't need anything anymore this season. Moreover, they won all three battles in the regular season with a total score of 15:4, so now we should bet on Dallas's victory with a handicap (-1,5).

Dallas has been particularly productive offensively of late. In their previous eight road games, the Texans have scored 37 goals (4.63 average per game). In the upcoming battle, the Stars have an excellent chance to keep that statistic, as they scored 15 pucks (5.00 average per game) in their three head-to-head meetings with the Coyotes this season. Now the optimal variant for the prediction seems to be an individual total of Dallas over 3.5 pucks, and separately we should look at the bet on the total over 0.5 points of Tyler Seguin.
