Nashville Predators vs Vancouver Canucks: The Predators had more time

Prediction for the NHL Nashville Predators vs Vancouver Canucks match, which will take place on February 2. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

Nashville beat three opponents after a four-game losing streak. First, it was Winnipeg (5:2), then Detroit (4:1) and then Seattle (4:2). Last game, however, the Predators lost to Edmonton by a penalty shot (2:3). Nashville is second in the Central Division table with 58 points, nine points behind leading Colorado.

Vancouver has only beaten two opponents in their last six games. In their previous games, they won the Winnipeg Canucks (5:1) and Chicago (3:1). Vancouver is in seventh place in the Pacific Division standings with 46 points. They are just two points behind the playoffs but have already played 45 games.

Vancouver doesn't have any tremendous, consistent results, and this is their second back-to-back game. Nashville had three straight wins before the penalty shot loss to Edmonton, plus they've been preparing for this game since January 28. The Predators will be stronger due to their physical conditions. Prediction: Nashville will win.
