Minnesota Wild vs Colorado Avalanche Prediction: The Wild can fight back

Prediction for the NHL Minnesota Wild vs Colorado Avalanche match will occur on January 10. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Minnesota showed they can score without Kirill Kaprizov. The Wild continued their four-game winning streak, disappointing Nashville, Washington, Carolina and St. Louis. John Hynes' side are back in contention for the top spot. On the eve of their clash with Colorado, they sit third in the Western Conference standings, three points adrift of first-placed Vegas.

Eight of the team's players will be absent due to injury. With that in mind, the Avalanche's indicators have worsened. After six wins in a row, the Avalanche have suffered two defeats in three matches, not against their most vigorous opponents - Montreal and Chicago. Jared Bednar's men are now looking for a way into the Western Conference's Cup zone. They are content with seventh place in the standings with 51 points.

Bookmakers are tipping Colorado to win, but we like the home side. Minnesota has once again gotten into great shape, even without Kaprizov. Colorado has an overcrowded infirmary, so the team constantly changes their lineup. The Wild can fight back against the Avalanche in their arena.
