WIN Jets

Winnipeg has a good chance at the Stanley Cup this season. Up to a certain point, they literally had no misfires at all, but still, they are nowhere without them. The Jets started 2025 badly - after a series of four straight losses, they lost to Colorado (2:5), Anaheim (3:4 in overtime) and 2:4 to Detroit. Because of these failures, Winnipeg lost the lead, and now at the top of the overall Western Conference table is Vegas with 57 points, but the Jets are second with 56 points.

NAS Predators

Nashville is completely failing this season, and only recently they have started to have some success. The Predators have four wins in the past seven games. There were three straight losses the day before, but then they beat Vancouver 3:0 and then Calgary (4:1). Management continues to trust Andrew Brunette, but in the Western Conference standings Nashville is still low - at the moment they are on the 14th position with 33 points in the asset.

Expert Betting Tips

The rivals crossed paths just a week ago - then Winnipeg in front of their own fans easily coped with Nashville with a score of 3:0. We think a similar scenario awaits us now. The Jets lost three games the day before, and now they'll have a lot of motivation with the support of their fans. But Nashville, which will be playing its sixth consecutive game on the road, is probably already out of energy. We suggest not to make anything up, choosing in favor of the home team's victory (taking into account overtime and shootout).
