San Jose Sharks vs Dallas Stars Prediction: Betting on the guests

Prediction for the NHL San Jose Sharks vs Dallas Stars match, which will take place on January 19. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

San Jose Sharks

San Jose is having another weak regular season, somewhere in the middle between the playoff contenders and the league's hopeless outsiders. The Sharks' lack of stability prevents them from chasing the former, while their fairly decent roster prevents them from catching up with the latter. There's a problem with confidence, so the team has only won one game in the last six meetings, and that one over lowly Arizona (4:2). Such a poor stretch leaves San Jose in 13th place in the Western Conference standings.

Dallas Stars

Dallas made some serious work on their mistakes after a poor season last year, which now allows the Texans not only to qualify for the playoffs but also to fight for the top places. In the meantime, the Texans started the regular season not very well, but they gradually began to look up and took their place. Now they are in excellent form: in the last five meetings, they were only once left without points, losing to Calgary - 5:6, once they lost to Rangers in overtime - 1:2, and three times won. All of this keeps Dallas in second place in the Western Conference standings.

Expert Betting Tips

San Jose and Dallas are now opponents of a completely incomparable level. The Californians are coming off another regular-season losing streak, sitting at the bottom of the Western Conference standings. The Texans are in terrific shape and have caught up with the league leaders. The Sharks haven't even shown any progress, losing five times in their last six meetings. That is why we need to bet on the victory of Dallas with the odds of about 2.00.

Dallas hasn't only been beating San Jose frequently lately and scoring a lot in their head-to-head encounters. In their four previous head-to-head meetings, the Stars scored 16 times (4.00 average per game) against the Sharks. And now the Californians have problems with defense, because of which, in the last six games, they missed 24 pucks (4.00 average per game), so the best option for the prediction seems to be an individual total of Dallas over 3.5 pucks at odds close to 2.00. Separately it is worth betting on the total over 0.5 points of Tyler Seguin for 1.96.
