Prediction for the NHL match which will take place on March 15. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Detroit Red Wings

Detroit's situation is getting more challenging with each new game day. Most recently, the Wings were in great shape, going on a six-game winning streak at the end of February, after which there was no doubt they would make the playoffs. Over the next two weeks, they did a good job of making the regular season finish extremely intriguing. In March, the Red and White didn't score a single point, losing to the Islanders 3:5, Florida 0:4, Colorado 2:7, Arizona 0:4, Vegas 3:5, and the day before to Buffalo 3:7. Detroit is now only in ninth place in the Eastern Conference standings.

Arizona Coyotes

Arizona had a surprisingly great start to the current regular season and, therefore, for a while, even located in the playoff zone, intending to make it to the cup battles. Alas, the Coyotes didn't last long. From the very first days of January, they started losing points, and a little later, they gave away a 14-match losing streak. After that, they managed to beat Ottawa and Washington - 5:3 and 5:2, respectively, but in the last five battles, they lost four times in regulation time, and the only victory in this stretch was over Detroit - 4:0. With 16 games before the finish of the regular season, the team sits in 13th place in the Western Conference standings.

Expert Betting Tips

Detroit is close to ruining the season, which was going very well. For the first time in several years, the Red and White had a chance to make the playoffs, but they had failed the previous six games in March without picking up a single point, and the calendar was very comfortable. The upcoming game against Arizona is a great chance for the Wings to finally break the long-running losing streak, as the Coyotes have lost 18 of their last 21 games, reflecting their poor form.

We have a right to expect high goal-scoring activity from the upcoming confrontation. It's not even about the strength of Detroit and Arizona's attacks but about the weakness of their defensive formations. In the last six games, the Wings have managed to concede 32 pucks (5.33 per game on average). The Coyotes are also trying to stay ahead, having allowed 21 shots on goal in the previous five battles (4.20 average per game). In addition, in the last four head-to-head meetings, the rivals have scored 29 goals (7.25 average per game).
