WAS Capitals vs ANA Ducks Prediction: the home team will be stronger

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

WAS Capitals

Washington should be given credit for this season. Few people expected such a leap forward from the Capitals - their roster is far from productive, and no one predicted more than the conditional first round of the playoffs. However, in reality, they are doing great in the regular season - still leading the Eastern Conference standings with 61 points. In the last match Washington managed to deal with Nashville with a score of 4:1.

ANA Ducks

No one expected anything from Anaheim. Greg Cronin is already squeezing everything out of his guys, and things are going pretty well. The Ducks have 41 points, so in the overall Western Conference table they are in 12th position. Moreover, the Ducks have personnel problems, the same Trevor Zegras has been absent for more than a month. After a series of three straight losses, Anaheim almost sensationally beat Carolina 3:2 in overtime.

H2H Meetings

Washington and Anaheim in the current campaign have never played, and in the last face-to-face battle almost a year ago (January 17, 2024) stronger were the Capitals with a score of 2:0.

Expert Betting Tips

We suggest making a choice in favor of Washington in the upcoming meeting. It feels that Spencer Carbery is in full control of the situation, and his wards are in gorgeous condition. The Capitals continue to lead the East, but you can not relax. Plus, they had a full day more rest than Anaheim, who gave a lot of effort in Raleigh. We don't make up anything and bet on a clean Washington win.
