San Jose vs Seattle Prediction: the Teams Want to Play It Safe

Prediction for the NHL-1 match between San Jose vs Seattle, which will take place on November 29th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the teams' conditions! Several betting options are available.

It's unlikely that San Jose will make the playoffs, and we're not sure that things will change in the long run. The San Jose team has only seven victories in 25 games, which is a pretty poor record. That means the Sharks have just over three defeats for every win. So, in the last five matches, the Sharks were stronger than the Kings (7:2), but in other games, they lost 2-5 to Dallas, 2-3 to St Louis, 2-4 to Buffalo, and 3-4 to Ottawa. So, in the Western Conference standings, San Jose is in 14th place with 19 points.

Seattle looks more competitive than their opponent. The Kraken is battling to secure a spot in the playoff zone. They currently occupy tenth place in the Western Conference standings with 23 points. Vancouver is currently two points behind in eighth place. The upcoming game sees the Kraken coming off the back of a two-match series with Anaheim, where the teams exchanged away victories. Seattle won the first game 3-2, but then failed the second 2-5.

We think it'd be a good idea to bet on goals, or rather, on there being none. Seattle needs to play better on the road, having lost four of the last five matches. Plus, the Sharks have mostly been winning at home. The other team will play it safe, and the Sharks will try to limit the action to earn at least one point. Given all that, we will back the total under option.
