New York Islanders vs Toronto Maple Leafs Prediction: The visitors have a better chance of winning

Prediction for the NHL match which will take place on January 12. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

New York Islanders

New York does not please its fans at all. The team has suffered four losses in the last five games - 1:3 to Pittsburgh, 4:5 to Colorado, 2:5 to Vegas, and 2:5 to Vancouver. The club can only boast a confident victory over Arizona (5:1). We would like to note that the Islanders are located in the East playoff zone. Still, if they continue to demonstrate such results, the good things will quickly end.

Toronto Maple Leafs

Toronto looks much more serious compared to the upcoming opponent. The Maple Leafs are trying to break into the top three of the Eastern Conference, but they have been unsuccessful so far. Ahead of their trip to New York, the Leafs are fourth and five points behind third-place Florida. In the last two meetings, Toronto earned four points without much trouble, twice beating San Jose (4:1 and 7:1).

Expert Betting Tips

Analysts of bookmaker offices believe that the guests have more chances for two points, with which we agree. Islanders, although occupying a place in the playoff zone, have recently shown very poor results. On the other hand, Toronto aims to get into the top 3, which, in principle, is evident from its indicators. Based on this, we suggest not making up anything and, with reinsurance, betting on the final victory of the guests.
