Arizona vs Columbus Prediction: the Outsiders Somehow Improved

Prediction for the NHL Arizona vs Columbus match, which will take place on February 20th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

For an outsider, Arizona is playing great hockey. The Coyotes have not lost in regulation time in eight straight games, getting four wins and four losses (in overtime and shootouts). Thus, their position in the Western Conference standings has improved slightly. They moved up to 13th place with 47 points.

Columbus is fighting for this campaign's penultimate place in the Eastern Conference standings. Before the 57th game, the team has 40 points, ten behind 15th Montreal. Note that in the last two games, the Jackets surprised their fans. First, they outplayed Winnipeg (3-1) at home and then Dallas (4-1) on the road.

Both Arizona and Columbus need to catch up in the current season. However, both teams looked perfect lately, taking points from stronger opponents. In the upcoming face-off, we expect goals, as the last four Coyotes and Jackets had no problem reaching the TO.
