Florida Panthers vs San Jose Sharks Prediction: Eighth Win, Not Wonder

Prediction for the NHL Florida Panthers vs San Jose Sharks match, which will take place on February 10th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Florida is far from the best conditions this season. Even with the resources they have, the Panthers could have played much better. However, in 53 matches, they scored only 56 points, so they are fifth in the Atlantic Division standings, outside the playoff zone. And in the whole East in general, they are the 11th. If we talk about the last meetings of the team, after three defeats in a row, it managed to get a victory over Boston in OT (4:3), and after a pause for the NHL All-Star game, it destroyed Tampa Bay with a score of 7:1.

San Jose, in turn, is not surprised by anything. It is still at the bottom of the West standings – in 13th place with 43 points after 52 meetings. The result is unfortunate, so the Sharks are unlikely to get a playoff again. As for the recent meetings of San Jose, its situation is similar to that of Florida. So, after four defeats in a row, it scored a victory over Pittsburgh (6:4), and after a pause, it also beat Tampa Bay in OT (4:3).

Experts of betting companies consider Florida to be the favorite of the match. It is logical because the Panthers are much more stronger than the Sharks. Their lineup is noticeably more powerful, plus they will play at home. Also, the hosts have been successfully playing against the guests lately because they won seven victories in seven previous face-to-face meetings. We think there will be an eighth win.
