Prediction for the NHL match which will take place on March 7. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Colorado already has one foot in the playoffs. They feel confident being in fourth place in the Western Conference standings. The only motivation for the team is to be in the top three, of which the Avalanche are two points short. In the last three meetings, the Avalanche have beaten Chicago twice, home and away (5:0 each), and suffered one defeat - a 1:5 loss to Nashville.

Detroit is fighting to stay in the top eight of the Eastern Conference. They can now settle for sixth place in the standings, earning four points more than the ninth-place Islanders. The advantage is not the greatest, as a consequence of which the Red Wings need to be vigilant. In the last two meetings, the Red Wings lost to the Islanders (3:5), and then to Florida, with a 0:4 loss.

Not surprisingly, bookmakers are more inclined to the victory of Colorado. Firstly, the Avalanche have been performing better throughout the NHL season. Secondly, the Avalanche have won four face-offs out of the last five. Thirdly, they will play in front of their own stands, which will add to their confidence. In general, based on the above, we suggest betting on a clean win for the home team at a very good rate.
