Washington Capitals vs New York Islanders Prediction: There Is No Favorite in this Meeting?

Prediction for the NHL Washington Capitals vs New York Islanders match which will take place on March 30th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available. 

Washington is not a part of the playoffs this season. The Capitals have no chances with such a game – they show awful hockey and are in the 12th place in the East and the sixth in the Capital Division standings. The team has only 76 points. The latest results of Ovechkin and the company are horrible – four defeats in five matches. After the defeat of Chicago 6:1, Washington failed to beat Pittsburgh – a loss 3:4.

New Yorkers is one step away from the playoffs - they are in seventh place in the Eastern Conference standings and fourth in the Metropolitan Division with 85 points. There is nothing to be afraid of in playoffs, but it's still not worth chilling. After three victories, the Islanders lost in two games – 4:5 (by OT) Columbus and 0:2 Buffalo, but the day before, they defeated New Jersey with a score of 5:1.

Betting companies believe that there is no favorite in this meeting. However, we bet on the Islanders because they show better hockey this season. Washington has nothing to do in the playoffs - they are not prepared for it right now. And four defeats in the last five matches prove everything. We think the Islanders will be able to deal with the Capitals without problems and score two points in overtime.
