New Jersey Devils vs St. Louis Blues Prediction: We should favor St. Louis in this battle

Prediction for the NHL New Jersey Devils vs St. Louis Blues match which will take place on March 8th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

This campaign could be better for New Jersey. The Devils still can't find their game and start to score points consistently. They are only seventh in the Metropolitan Division with 64 points and 12th in the East. Making the playoffs will be extremely difficult. In the last three meetings, New Jersey lost in regulation time and the day before by 5:3 against Florida.

St. Louis is also having a less-than-stellar season, and its chances of making the playoffs are low. On the eve of the game, the Blues are fifth in the Central Division and ninth in the West, with 67 points. The day before, St. Louis managed to formalize two victories — 3:1 over Minnesota and 2:1 in a shootout over Philadelphia, but in the last game, they were unpleasant 2:4 with the Islanders.

We should favor St. Louis in this battle. Both teams are struggling this season, but we suggest you pay attention to the matchups. For example, the Blues have taken at least one point from the Devils in 16 of the last 18 meetings and beaten them in regulation time in the previous three. That's why we don't recommend betting on the visitors to win after three periods - they know what they can do against the visitors.
