Anaheim vs Buffalo Prediction: Waiting for a Spectacular Match

Prediction for the NHL-1 match between Anaheim Ducks vs Buffalo Sabres, which will take place on November 23rd. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the teams' conditions! Several betting options are available.

Anaheim

Anaheim is not doing as well as we'd hoped. Generally, no one has any expectations of the Ducks. Their roster is weak, and even the playoffs are not in sight. In 18 games, they only managed to win eight times and lost ten, with eight losses being in regulation time. With 18 points, the team is currently 12th in the Western Conference standings. On the other hand, the Ducks have been on a roll lately, with three straight victories. After losing 6-4 to Detroit, Anaheim also beat Dallas 4-2 and Chicago 3-2.

Buffalo

To be fair, Buffalo isn't in a solid position either. The Sabres will undoubtedly be stronger than Anaheim, but in 19 games, they have only eight wins and ten defeats, nine of which were in regulation time. They've got 19 points, which puts them in ninth place in the Eastern Conference standings overall. But with a game like that, they've got no chance of making the playoffs. Buffalo has been alternating victories and failures in five matches in a row. After a recent 2-5 loss to Philadelphia, they managed to beat Los Angeles 1-0 in an extremely dismal game.

Expert Betting Tips

We're expecting the scored pucks to come into play in this meeting. Bookmakers have Buffalo as the favorite, but Anaheim shouldn't be written off. They can't look bad in front of their fans, and they have a three-game winning streak, so they could be surprised. It's also worth mentioning that these rivals always deliver many pucks when they meet face-to-face. The last four games ended with the total over. So, we think a usual TO is a good choice here.
