NY Islanders vs Montreal Prediction: the Hosts to Break the Losing Streak

Prediction for the NHL New York Islanders vs Montreal Canadiens match, which will take place on January 15th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

The Islanders have been performing incredibly this season, but just for the team from the middle of the Eastern standings. In 43 meetings, the New Yorkers have claimed 22 wins and suffered 21 losses, so with 47 points, they are sixth in the Capital One Division. Note that the Islanders now have a streak of four losses in a row, with the last one to Minnesota (1-3).

Montreal, in turn, is an outsider in the Eastern Conference. In 42 games, they managed to win only 17 and fail 25. Due to this, the Canadiens are in the Atlantic Division bottom with 37 points and are penultimate in the Eastern Conference standings. After a shutout to Seattle (0-4), Montreal defeated Nashville (4-3).

• Montreal is averaging 3.78 goals per game.
• The Islanders have failed their last four matches.

Even though the Islanders are on a streak of four losses, bookmakers consider them the favorites, and we agree. Their previous opponents were quite powerful, while Montreal looks like an easy walk-on. We think the home team will pay off the credit and earn two points in this game.
