Dallas Stars vs Minnesota Wild: The Wild should rectify the situation

Prediction for the NHL Dallas Stars v Minnesota Wild match, which will take place on December 21. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

Dallas finally broke their awful five-game losing streak with a win in their last game against Chicago (4:3 including overtime). It should be noted that the Stars lost only once at the home arena, and in the other cases exclusively on the road. Dallas is playing pretty well at home, with four wins in the last five games.

Dallas could be in contention for a playoff spot. They are six points behind the top four. The Stars are currently in sixth place in the Central Division and have 30 points.

What happened to Minnesota? The team had been producing excellent results (eight wins in a row), but it all ended in a 1:2 defeat to Los Angeles. Then, they have lost to Vegas (4:6) and Buffalo in a penalty shot (2:2, 0:1 penalty shot). Still, the Wild remain at the top of the Central Division table, but their lead over second-placed Nashville has decreased considerably (from six points to one).

The bookmakers have opted for the Stars, while we will choose another team. In our opinion, it is the Wild who are the favourites. They are not in the best shape, but this win is very significant for them. If they do not succeed, the club are in danger of going down in the standings, that's why we suggest you bet on the final victory of the second team. Prediction: Minnesota will win.
