Anaheim Ducks

It's been a long time since the Ducks competed for Cup places, but they suddenly began to show good results at the beginning of the regular season. In five opening meetings, they allowed four defeats, but they won eight out of ten games. It is not worth remembering now since the Ducks could not score a single point in the next seven meetings. The crisis of the Californian team is evident, and they are in the 12th place in the Western Conference standings.

Washington Capitals

Washington also has enough problems in the regular season, trying to avoid last year's failure when it failed to reach the playoffs. The Capitals' current lineup is very old. Key players could be injured, but they still manage to cling to points in character, even in those games where they look noticeably worse than their opponents. One of these battles was the day before when they suffered a victory over Los Angeles - 2:1, but before that, there were defeats from Edmonton and San Jose - 0:5 and 1:2. Such uneven results leave them in eighth position in the Eastern Conference standings.

Expert Betting Tips

The Ducks are now in terrible shape; they cannot win seven matches in a row, and they have not scored a single point in this segment. Spencer Carbery's wards should take advantage of the opponent's fall, for whom points are necessary; therefore, they will not have problems. 

It is unlikely that the upcoming confrontation will spoil us with high performance. Anaheim and Washington have been playing cautiously with each other. In the previous five games, the opponents got only 25 goals scored (5.00 on average per game) - a modest result.
