Dallas Stars vs Colorado Avalanche Prediction: Will the Stars be able to rehabilitate themselves?

Prediction for the NHL match which will take place on January 5. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

The team will play its fourth consecutive home game. And while Dallas started this stretch with two wins over Chicago (5:4 in overtime and 8:1), they fell short against another outsider - Montreal. The Stars were down by three goals in the third period, managed to score twice before the final siren, but couldn't finish the game - 3:4.

Montreal has become a truly uncomfortable opponent for Dallas, while, in general, in this championship, things are going well for the Stars - 22 wins in 36 games and fifth position in the Western Conference standings.

While Dallas is third in the Central Division, Colorado tops the eight-team table. The team has won 24 of 38 games and has nearly caught up with Vancouver, the league's best offense, in terms of pucks scored, with an average of 3.63 per game.

The last two games have been home games for the Avalanche. First, Denver beat San Jose 3:1 at the end of the third period and then had a bright meeting with the New York Islanders, where they also scored in the end. The result was a 5:4 overtime victory. Nathan MacKinnon scored the decisive goal in the extra five minutes.

After the loss to Montreal, Dallas will go out on the ice as motivated as possible and likely score points in the upcoming game. Moreover, Colorado has performed worse away than at home this season and won five of the previous six games, which will also affect the team's motivation - in a negative way. We bet on the Stars, but at the same time, we don't believe that the Avalanche will give up without a fight and will show their power in attack again, which means the match will be productive.
