Nashville Predators

Nashville is gradually trying to get back into the fight for places in Cup eight, but it won't be effortless. Having a good roster by name, the Predators again had a weak first half of the regular season, so now they have to catch up with the competitors who broke away. Nevertheless, John Hines' wards have recently been demonstrating a good game, won six times in the previous nine games with three defeats. It is curious that on the eve of the Predators unexpectedly lost to Arizona – 2:4. Nashville is currently ranked tenth in the Western Conference standings.

Boston Bruins

Boston holds a wonderful regular season. It seemed that Jim Montgomery would have to spend a lot of time to become one of his own in such an experienced and masterful team, but the mentor already reached out to his new wards in the season's debut, who showed hockey of the highest class. Of course, there are also unsuccessful segments at such a long distance, one of which the Bruins are experiencing now. In the last six meetings, they have allowed four defeats with two wins, but the day before, they beat Dallas on the road – 3:2. Boston remains the leader of the Eastern Conference standings, seven points ahead of its nearest rival.

Expert Betting Tips

Boston is the strongest NHL team in the current regular season. From the very first games of the season, the Bruins have gone into a breakaway and still do not allow competitors to get closer. Yes, Jim Montgomery's wards recently had an unsuccessful stretch, but the day before, they beat Dallas, the leader in the Western Conference, which proved their current good condition. So in the upcoming battle, the Bruins are the favorites. Besides, Nashville has been playing unsuccessfully in its native walls lately, losing alternately to Vegas and Arizona with a total score of 3:9. 

Nashville is showing modest results in the current regular season. At the same time, it is fascinating to watch the matches with the participation of the Predators since they play fun, especially against the background of their recent seasons. In just 51 matches with their participation, 293 goalkeeping took place (5.75 on average per game), which is okay. Boston has an even higher figure – 311 goals in 53 meetings (5.87 on average per game).
